Hmm. With regards to the phone poll, I guess it shall be a fanfic-reading. I'll probably read part of First Light and part of one of the parody fics.

I wish I could bloody finish one of the dozen or so fics currently in limbo on my computer. INTERNET, you destroy my life.

Anyway! Phone update tonight, hopefully.

In other news, I cooked my first ever lasagne on Saturday. Don't look at me like that. I cook tons of stuff, but lasagne has always baffled me (sauce first? Sheets first? what goes on top? OMG IS THIS RIGHT?)

In the end, my lasagne was eclectic at best. Ingredients included a dash of tabasco, courgettes, mushrooms and...er...okra. The okra made it taste so good. The family were all, "what is that gorgeous taste?" and I'm all, thank Asda for its Indian food section. Hardly Italian cuisine, but then there's debate over whether the British in fact invented lasagne, so I'll stand by it.

I also discovered the ultimate oxymoron yesterday, courtesy of Mary. BRITISH WINE.

*Gags*

There I was, thinking you were my Antipodean Nigella, and instead you're my Antipodean Homer Simpson (setting cornflakes on fire when he tries to make breakfast.)

Also, the poll? GREEDY PEOPLE GET SPORKED. :p

Also, some of the lines in that haiku I sent you have six syllables. WOE.

I am not! I can handle breakfast no problem. (But not crumpets for lunch with a high-tech toaster.)

Then you should have put radio buttons instead of check marks. Gee, I thought it would be obvious. :p

Who's counting? Not I.

I had a miserable cereal bar for breakfast. Oh, the pain. HOWEVER, if I were at home, I'd cook something excellent. Glad that you don't put crumpets in the toaster. :p

Radio buttons...? Anna, it took me twenty minutes to find the poll button, let alone fabulous buttons.

I counted. It gave me something to do at work. >:)

I like breakfast bars. I like toast more. Mwahahaha. Are you still low-carbing it?
GUESS WHAT, BECKY. I've lost the weight I put on around Christmas. Go me! (Still need to lose more, though.)

Well, I only went back on it yesterday. Once I started on potatoes and rice (my favourite foodstuffs, man) it was so hard to stop.

Um... the scales told me I'd actually lost weight since then, but the scales are about as trustworthy as Fox News.

Anyhoo! Yes. Back on. If it goes as well as last time, then I'll be fitting into that gorgeous skirt I bought in the January sales. Huzzah, etc.

You lost your weight despite peppermint creams and such? OMG, u suck. ;)

Mmmm potatoes. I went out for dinner last night and ordered bruschetta and fries. Way to be adventourous, Anna.

Whoo! Skirt! I haven't made peppermint creams for months, actually. :p I've lost the weight on a diet I like to call Chocolate and Toast... I think it's the exercise that actually did the work. ;)
