And when you've done the house, start again. I just threw out two bottles of olive oil marked best before 2004. WHAT.

Today I have been enjoying being older, eating like a piglet (1. Toast. 2. Butter. 3. Tabasco. 4. Strong cheese. 5. Black pepper. 6. Heat. 7. Yum. Next time I include the Worcestershire sauce.) and playing with Freda, who can't understand "forty-four" and thinks I am four. We Skyped to her grandparents, upon which I discovered my netbook's microphone is now not working, despite my workaround with the excellent new shitty speakers [personal profile] arkady got me (per Rocknerd post above).

Freda gave me a card, which she signed herself!

I also spent far too much time cutting stuff out of her CBeebies craft magazine with plastic scissors that kept breaking. It appears that in forty-four years, I have in fact failed to learn how to work machinery only as complicated as scissors. Here's Freda in a silly cardboard hat:

Dinner tonight involves steak, mushrooms, chips, a chocolate cake for dessert and copious beers. Here's to domesticity.

Update: Banana beer is bizarre. It makes Belgian fruit beer seem normal.

And then you try German Weißbier, and add 1/4 to 1/3 of banana juice. When you try that on your average lager-addict, complete sensory overload ensues.

Happy Birthday! Three cheers for domestic bliss! I'm sure 2004 olive oil was quite all right -and you never know, it might come in useful :D

Try a Young's Chocolate Stout mixed with a Wells Banana Bread Beer.

You get a absolutely evil hangover off it if you overdo it, but it's so tasty it's worth it.

That signature looks just like the pictures I've seen of people trying to write while on LSD.
