Oh dear….
Museum says dinosaurs ‘on Noah’s Ark’
Have to wonder about the 50% of the US that thinks the earth was made in 10,000 years. (My psycho-penticostal grandma says that dinosaurs were made by the devil to get us to doubt the Genesis story….sigh….)
I had such a nice weekend – lots of stuff done. Washing, cleaning, more cleaning and some sewing too.
Just about ready to start the heel flap on my lace socks i’ve designed (i want them for myself, but i think big hoofer feet sizes arnt good for a magazine so i better make them for someone else…).
Went to SSK on saturday, but left early because of one of the fellow knitters there. She cant moderate her voice, and her constant shouting in my ear gave me the worst headache. No one says anything (when shes around), but it makes it painful for the rest of us. Maybe she doesnt realise, maybe i should tell her? Dont know…. Will have to think on that one. If putting up with it makes me resentful and grumpy, then to be honest and true to myself I should tell her, right? Aah, i think my self-help group is making me think about stuff too much.
Later on we went to Tamanas On Top – a really nice Indian restaurant on King St. I’m so over Indian food at the moment, the Boi keeps making me eat at Janani in Homebush (ok, they are cheap. $2.50 for an entree cheap). But Tamana’s was really really nice and tasty – not too hot either. The only downfall was the serving sizes were small for what you paid, and one of the waiters spilled an entree on someone and wasnt that helpful about cleaning it up.
I had Aloo Tikki for entree (not as nice as Bikaneer in the city) and Malai Kolfi for mains – yum! The Boi had Lamb Saag (spinach) and he said it was good too.
On Sunday went to the Courthouse SnB, and managed to get 2 of my pals to come as well! Tania had already been before, but Benji hadnt knitted since he was 12! He picked it up again right away… yay! And he wants to learn cables next – straight from garter stitch to cables – excellent.
And then we went and saw Pirates of the C! YAY! PIRATES! Although some of the story line was a but far-fetched, and the scene at the end, with Will, Elizabeth and Capn Barbarossa (the fight scene, where they get……) that was down right silly. I loved it anyway. Had deliciously piratey dreams last night!
