NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

Come Dine With Me Part 3

It was the turn of our 13 year old son tonight to cook for us all. The menu was: chicken caesar salad; stuffed roast pork; carrot cake. He struggled a bit, particularly with timings (there was an even larger gap between starter and main course than when I cooked the other day!) but on the whole the food was really good. OK, he cheated with the carrot cake in that he bought one from Sainsburys but so what? A fine red wine helped wash it down.

Anyway, time for Buzz and Singstar now.
