April Walks


Due to a multitude of reasons we don’t get to travel out of town much, which we don’t mind at all, as we’re not here for travelling and sightseeing. However, whenever time allows we do go out and take short walks around town. Sometimes, we also take pictures.

Beautiful Day

It was a beautiful day today so I snapped some photos on my mobile this morning.




I love trees. Finally, Summertown House.


I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I did taking them. :)

One Year


One year ago today, 4 April 2010, my dear beloved wife and I were married. We celebrated our first anniversary today, at home, just the two of us. I hope that we’ll celebrate many more anniversaries together.

Cheat

We talked about buying a food processor many times before but for the most part they were just talk. Since we keep talking about cooking this and that, a food processor is just one of those things we would love to have. However, unless we move into a huge kitchen with a big island there is nowhere we can park one in the tiny kitchen of our flat. Besides, good food processors are expensive. And as much as we would love to own a food processor we don’t really need one anyway.

Then, we saw a very nice little gadget in one of those cooking shows on television. It is the Kenwood Mini Chopper. It was like love at first sight. The mini chopper is one gadget we immediately knew we’d actually use—a lot. Chopping is one of the most inconvenient steps when cooking. It takes time, and especially when it comes to onions, painful. So we immediately thought that the mini chopper is genius. At £20 it doesn’t cost a bomb too.


I really wished we had the mini chopper when I was making vadeh, though. It would have made things a lot easier and saved a lot of time. A few days later, Amazon alerted me that the mini chopper was selling at £15. Since I had £6 in Amazon gift certificate, I only had to pay £9 for the machine. YAY!

Our new mini chopper arrived last Friday and I’ve used it several times already myself. We simply love it.
