Bird Dramas & Thinking of Food (as usual)

Our little pet-bird is sick: entire life revolving around looking after him, cannot put him down at all to attend to things like bathroom cleaning etcetera.

Poor little birdie - going to try another type of antibiotic than the one he is on now, and hope he pulls through. He is already at an advanced age for this kind of bird, and has been ill since Christmas. Still, you have never seen anything so sad as a bird which cannot fly, perch or eat...

Have got visitors coming this week! Hope weather cooperates and stops being crappy, like right now. Am bit nervous as to what food to prepare. Mother is expert at cooking for millions of people at once - but honestly I do not know how she does it. At a stretch I can manage four people, beyond that am like "let's order pizzas!"

Said to mother I might make a large batch of pasta and tomato-sauce with delicious garlic-bread. Mother was horrified. Apparently is unacceptable hostess-behaviour to serve spaghetti and sauce. Do not see why!? Everyone loves pasta - although they like to deny it.

Was going to buy a BBQ, alas all BBQ's in town sold out until end of month. Typical.

Though, atleast, this will spare me the task of explaining to a bunch of aussies why we do not permit meat on our barbie...

Each true aussie home apparently needs a BBQ, mine does not yet, but maybe I'm excused by the fact that I'm not from here ;-) Good luck on the BBQ hunt!

Pfft, inget fel i att bjuda på pasta med valfri sås. Är ju det godaste som finns!
