MEALS OF NOTE: Wagamama-mania
TUESDAY 5 MAY
LOCATION: Wagamama's MK
This was mine and Kate's (my only friend it would seem!) first Wagamama experience. It had always smelled so tasty so we thought to hell with it, let's pay good money for some overly priced Japanese food.
We got seated by some "gal" called Danni, who had too many colours in her hair, and tried instantly to become our best friends.
"Hi guys, how are you doing today? Ok? Alright? Medium?"
At first I thought shhh Danni, but then realised it was nice that she made the effort.
So after deciphering the menu I choose chicken itame. And thus the vat of soup arrived.
Oh. My. Days. So much soup and coconut milk.
It was like a good 4 inches deep. I started off with chopsticks (score!) but then in the end, reverted back to cutlery. Also they gave me some crazy ladel thing, which I wasn't entirely on sure how to use. The whole eating event ended up being a messy affair, with chin wiping at frequent intervals. It was made all that bit worse by some hot boy sitting opposite me, looking increasingly disgusted at my noodle eating. Nightmare!
Once I was bored with the loborious noodle grabbing/slurping/clutching, I began to juje it up a bit with the fun little condiments they leave you. Red oil stuff - quite tasty. Chilli flakes - again quite tasty. Soy sauce - soy sauce.
By the end I was tired and full, and can now feel the coconut milky noodleness slooshing around in my stomach.
In fairness to Wagamama's everyone else's food look really tasty, and it really wasn't that expensive for the sheer amount of food you got. I would most probably go again.
Marks out of 10: 7/10
Drink: Water
NB: They had good thorough hand dryers in the loo.

Gay Cruise
Mum's birthday attracted them all from far and wide, including other halves. Does however look like a gay cruise.

Meals of note
BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND.... only joking. Just to keep Kate Syme of Chapel Close happy, I have decided to continue this food based feature, rebranded as Meals of Note. So to get the ball rolling...
TUESDAY 28 APRIL
Location: The Smith kitchen
This day was apparently one of Beverley's "clean out the freezer" days. So we had paella, salmon with a parsley sauce, roasted vegetables and sweetcorn. Not Bev's best I won't lie to you. I'd give it an average 4/10. I think it was made worse by our now dysfunct tv in the kitchen, which, with all the moving and such, has water damage and has a band of purpleness through the middle. It did however give all the nurses dresses in Holby City a lovely purple-blue tie dye effect (Y).
Drink: H20
Summary: Meh

Lipstick-o-rama
And so, summer ball preparation is upon us. Lots of fun to be had with Photoshop and various lipstick colours. Now, who doesn't love the pink?!

The Lunch Diaries pt2
So after reading yesterday's post, I realised this idea is seriously dull. But nonetheless I shall persist!
WEDNESDAY
No photos I'm afraid. Lunch today consisted of a Tuna Melt, salad and an old friend. Is that some sort of cocktail you ordered with lunch? I hear you ask! Why no! it was my old friend Jessica Addison, famously from Essex uni.
Food - average. Company - quite excellent.
Overall a sky high 9/10.
I have also realised that my lunches are quite poncey, and may need to ponce it down a little. Maybe just a simple ham sandwich for tomorrow?
There may well be no posting tomorrow. Once I've read this post over, I think I'll need to re-evaluate my life. Ha!

The Lunch Diaries
For those that know me too well, you'll know that I do like my holiday lunches. So I have decided to take note, and record each day's lunch. I am backtracking a bit, but tomorrow there may even be photographs! ha!
MONDAY
Mum buys these amazing little pastry cases with some form of ratatouille inside them. So I had one of those with a salad.
Dressing of choice: Mustard Mayo
Accompanying Drink: Lemon Squash
I must say it was quite tasty. A strong 7/10. Made all that bit better with a soundtrack of M83 and Rufus.
TUESDAY
Very dissapointing. Now, I'm a fan of linguine. And tuna. But not together, as I was to find out. The tuna was like mushy and covered in Balsamic vinegar.
Drink: Water
Luckily I ate it all in one track of Buddy Guy, which seemed to remedy the mood a little. All in all quite poor. A shocking 2/10.
Stay tuned!
