I do one meal a week. One good meal, that is. Yesterday was it. Chicken Korma. Not that canned crap. Proper Indian cuisine. Where you add the saffron and cardamom and do it yourself. I forgot today was Valentines Day. And that I’ll have to do it again. I’m thinking something-salmon. <\/p>\n
“I want nothing,” he tells me. He’s low-carbing so chocolate is out of the question. “It’s a girl’s day, after all.” <\/p>\n
Yeah, he may be right, but remember that time I went to Harvey Nics and stocked up on girly stuff for this girl’s day and brought it all home with nothing for you and you looked sad?<\/em> <\/p>\n He’s impossible to buy for. He’s only ever worn one item of clothing I’ve ever got him. A blue pajama top. He has a Tag Heuer and two pair of overpriced Italian loafers sitting in my wardrobe. And countless gadgets. Full to overflowing. All past Valentine gifts. He does like art. But I can’t afford it. Not without dipping into his cash and that’s not really fair. Is it? <\/p>\n Anyway, I’ve been watching Julia Child since I was three. I should be able to pull something out of my hat. <\/p>\n What about you ladies? What do you do for the one you call darling<\/em>? I have eight hours to get it right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I do one meal a week. One good meal, that is.
