I watched a few episodes waiting to find the funny parts and I’m still waiting ?

It took me a good few episodes to get into, David was my favourite character. Roland, Jocelyn and Bob annoyed me but they were intentionally annoying.
Another long day, designing a compact carry case/bag that at minimum holds a phone and bank cards. The background research is so time consuming!
Round 2 reveal starting soon, we've randomised to SHEEP, you are all verrrrry lucky it wasn't PEEHS again!

I tried a white chocolate orange today, was pleasantly surprised


[Image: DistortedAnxiousBlowfish-max-1mb.gif]

Chocolate and orange is one of the worst combinations there is.  I really don't understand how people like it.  And then to add it to the sweepings off the floor after they make proper chocolate?  Madness!
SHOCK!!

Chocolate and orange is the GOD EMPEROR of flavours!!!!!!!!
I do not tolerate any criticism of Schitts Creek! (Joke!)
The show is epic.The show does start slow though, and the character development over the seasons is perfect. I find it funny, but that's not what the draw with it is for me. It's the characters. All so beautifully written.

I'm just home from Wagamama. I wish I could roll up the stairs straight to bed. The ramen defeated me.
Yeah, I didn't find Schitt's Creek all that funny exactly. But I did enjoy it. I just found it a very pleasant place and company to spend 27 minutes at a time. It's comfort food TV rather than side splitting laughs.
Patrick's and then David's version of Simply the Best ... I'm not a romantic but that got me right in the feels.

The show for me is a comfort blanket. If I'm having a really bad day, putting on an episode is just like engulfing myself in a hug. 

@Leg End Reject Simply the Best gets me every single time.

Sitting room side with a small 3 year old biyeen (my nephew ) watching paw patrol, there's a 1 and a half year old little princess wearing her unicorn hat ( niece) here beside us as well .
Finally getting towards the end of a pig of a week, stressed off my face, and I got an email saying I'd won a competition I'd seen on boards. A Staropramen Supper Box. It's amazing how much the knowledge of some food and beer heading this way in the post has cheered me up Big Grin

Sounds perfect... apart from Paw Patrol!
What's the incompetent mayor done now? Tongue
I got a bar of white Terry's chocolate orange, it's orgasmic. Didn't see an egg version though.

Beer chilling in the fridge too. Tongue

I ate a whole round one during my classes this morning and then had a lovely nap this afternoon, possibly sugar induced.

Necrina gave me an early bday pressie today so this is my plan for the evening ...

That's a fantastic pressie, Necro, Necrina is a keeper!
I'm finally unpacking all the boxes of our kitchen stuff into our new kitchen cupboards, while listening to Red (Taylor's Version). I have a bottle of wine chilling in the fridge for when I'm done.
@cee_jay, we need pics of the new kitchen!

When's the birthday party? We'll bring you some nice whiskey Wink

Too tired to cook so having beans on toast.
With a nice shiraz though, because I'm a connoisseur Big Grin
Happy early Birthday Necro!! Smile


@cee_jay I too would like to see pics Big Grin

We are getting new bathrooms but haven't begun looking for a person to do it. Do people just google?

Good lord no, ask for recommendations, people you know or on Boards. There's a lot of cowboys out there!
This is the "larder" - basically this will be board game storage, and appliances and shiz like that I think. 
(Sorry can't figure out how to embed the pic)

Fridge and wine rack

I've just sat down with wine, will try get pictures of the rest tomorrow once the splashback has been done.

We need to do the bathrooms next, but it can wait a while now. For our kitchen, I priced 3 different companies, and went with the design I was happiest with (it was also the cheapest luckily, and cheapest by 5k). Looked at reviews online, and the service has been excellent. 
My dad is our electrician so we have been lucky there. I used FindATradesman for our tiler. He was happy to give pictures and references for his previous work, if happily recommend him. We used LocalHeroes for the plumber. We have been quite lucky with the ones we found.

Ooooh looks awesome so far, can't wait to see the splashback!
The best thing about tomorrow is when dad comes to do electrical work, my mam is coming too with my nephew and niece! Even though the house is up in a heap, it'll be good to see them.
It looks fab @cee_jay , enjoy having the time with family tomorrow ☺

Well actually that's my own bottle  Tongue she just got me the glasses but I really like Jim Beam. Wouldn't be a connoisseur or anything but it's nice to have something decent to drink out of Big Grin

I shall do some digging. I love your presses CJ. The colour is really nice.

Here is a pic of our current bathroom. We think its a bit plain...... Big Grin

It is so probably a good thing that its not actually our bathroom  Big Grin
@cee_jay, I love the larder, can't wait to see the rest.


@Diamonds of Frost, that's a very small and modest bathroom, I'd just move if I was you. Tongue



Now I want a new kitchen and bathroom ... Euromillions here I come!
What to do what to do. Poker night in friend's house tonight but its not my cup of tea. Would like cocktails instead. I predict a night of Dominoes peetza ahead.

What am I going to do now though? Will I go shops or will I have nap.
I have domino's pizza ordered. Season finale of Dexter season 1. And a bottle of wine. Exactly what Saturday nights are made for.
I got a chinese, and a game reveal Big Grin
I thought about Domino's, for one to share with a neighbour too - If only I weren't so flippin' lazy.

Great reveal nothing Smile thanks for the weekend fun.
