Well I never would have thought way back then that I’d still be writing this silly blog 15 years on. And at times it even looked like I wouldn’t even still be around to write it. But here we are. 🙂
We’ve sure been through a lot together! So thanks for sticking around (and welcome to any new visitors!). Should we try for 15 more? 😉

So my lovely across the street neighbours Antonio and Ana are back! After having spent most of the pandemic in a small beach village to avoid contact with lots of people. Now they are vaccinated and back home. But OMG imagine my horror when I heard “Hola Shawn!” as I was sitting at my desk, balcony doors flung open, wearing my crappy PJs (the ones I work out in because “hey nobody can see me!”, not the other nicer ones that I can actually receive deliveries in) and I had to step out onto the balcony to say hello looking like god knows what (hair a mess, no makeup). I think I need to up my pyjama game, even on days when I’m not going anywhere.

Yes, more brown food and one of my specialities – the fridge forage. Today’s was frozen pork & beef meatballs cooked with sweet onions, garlic, portobellos, amontillado… buttery mash with wilted baby spinach on the side. Took me about two hours to do this and it totally saved me. Because I woke up this morning not sure how I was going to get through another day, as in what the fuck was I going to do with all those hours. So I did a bit of this and that, realised I wasn’t able to go out, and then decided to COOK SOMETHING. In the end I got to do something creative, share it on my social media (yes, I’m one of those) and also have a tasty meal. By then I was calmer and could settle down with Morcilla to do a bit of Netflixing. Somehow it’s now almost time for bed, again, and then it will be tomorrow, again. Wish me luck!
