Girls Weekend BBQ

What a wonderful couple of days. First lots of girly laughs on Friday night and then culminated with a nice BBQ under the sun while sipping .... Cola. I know you guys expect me to put getting drunk on my list of Crazy-Things-I-Would-Never-Do but that is not going to happen. I am sure I can come up with other things that are more fun for me. Besides work, which I had to remind people not to talk about, this is a list of some of our conversation topics: elbow skin and what it resembles when you pull it down, what we would do if we were men, being lesbians since it seems to be more easy, men and how they expect relations every night and the excuses we use, casual encounters, platonic souls, and operas.
After an authentic Curacao BBQ food, a cake with half a bottle of run and many bottles of wine, I remembered the potato salad that was still chilling in the fridge. Not to despair I thought since we still had lots of steak, chicken and ribs left we can have the potato salad later or even tomorrow. Well, that dream soon disappeared in thin air with the cloud of flies that escaped from underneath the lid we put on top of the foil tray. You would think we would throw the meat away right that moment, but that didn't happen until after we checked on Google if we could die if we still re-heated it and ate it. For those of you who think that flies are harmless .... they are not. You won't die but you will regret.
So the menu for tomorrow: the ice lollies I forgot in the freezer.

Celebrity spotter 10, 9,...

I added a new item to the list. Take pictures with 10 celebrities. Celebrity 10: Las t Friday we went to Jamie's new restaurant in Covent Garden. Standing there looking at the menu, I saw Gennaro. I've seen him on Saturday Kitchen before and remembered him because he said he didn't cook with olive oil; he only uses it for salads because it burns faster. Or so I remembered. After a lot of whispering I finally decided to approach him. So I asked him if he was the chef on Saturday Kitchen and if he was the one who doesn't cook with olive oil. He said No! I think that chef should be shot. I'm Italian and all Italians cook with olive oil, he says. He spoke with us for awhile and then moved on. Sitting there waiting for our food is when I added this item to my list. Gennaro is my first. After a very nice meal, we walk out of the restaurant and who do we spot? Louie Spence from Pineapple Dance Studio. Everyone loves him. He is just the most entertaining person to watch. Wo...

The Life of a Celebrity

I made the papers. Not once ... but twice! Yes y'all, my name and picture are in the newspapers and I didn't even have to commit a crime for it. All I had to do is my job. First article was all about the upcoming Census and our cooperation with the marking bureau. http://www.thedailyherald.com/islands/1-islands-news/10071-department-of-statistics-prepares-for-census-2011.html When I woke up that morning I ddin't realize I was going to be in the picture. I thought it was going to be just my Department Head but no! There I was in my bright pink shirt. Later that week we did the trainings for the Pilot Census and Bam! there I am again. http://www.thedailyherald.com/islands/1-islands-news/10214-statistics-dept-holds-final-training-for-pilot-census.html (Un)fortunately the picture is only in the papers and not on the internet. And just now, I am sitting at my desk waiting for the radio people to interview me. People here like my 'british' accent so should I thi...

Alone in the Office ...

Sitting alone in the office makes my mind wander. Maybe I have an active imagination, maybe have read too many books, maybe I have watched too much internet entertainment. I'm here working late, got to be ready for the holidays, right? Everyone has already gone home, Christmas shopping or just out having fun. Me? I am here enjoying some Ne-Yo ... One in a miiilllion parapapa. That boy is good. Even my Miss Independent self got to admit that he does make me go ooooohhh haaaaaa. Sitting alone in the office makes my mind wander. I start to think about hunky cleaners coming in after hours or an IT geek working long hours not realizing there is another person in the building. He makes himself comfortable .... really comfortable. See the air-conditioning can get very cold if you have been sitting in it for hours. I can understand that one might turn it off ... and then it gets to be sweltering hot. If you are wearing a suit and tie, you get hot. Really hot. Oh! Don't you know it .....
