Things that please you

[Pweter]

Being presented with a plate of fruit for dessert by an 8 yo, completely off his own bat.

Jamie Oliver, look out. Dave Jr is hot on your heels.

I was most surprised when my 3yo offered me some cheese and bacon balls from her packet a few weeks back. Was hard to say yes given the amount of slobber/chip dregs all over her hands that were dipping back into the packet every time she had another, but impossible to say no to the innocent little 3yo dinner plate eyes looking up and the sincere cheese and bacon ball smothered smile on offer.

She's finally learning that sharing isn't all bad. HOORAY (and not before time!), it was a milestone moment for me.

Not quite the same as your child preparing the food and presenting it, but your kids and food post reminded me of it.

My Aunty got through brain surgery today, seems everything has gone well.
9 hours she was in there, crazy stuff.

Fantastic. Here's hoping she has a speedy recovery

Bliss is going to Chadstone Shop Centre 9am on Xmas Eve and it being quiet

Being at work. Quiet as *, no kids to drive me nuts. Can kick back, surf for a bit and relax.

Enjoy.

I'm unsure whether or not this should please me but I'm in the top 50 posters on the site.

In quantity, definitely not quality. Lance Uppercut, Kong and Ben the Gooner are all ahead of me.

I like Christmas because of the family stuff that comes with it, but shopping last night during all night trading was a pretty unpleasant experience!

I did the lay by thing in November (playstation4 and games) but did a lot online as in the LFC stuff, Vic Secrets and Cricket Australia.
Today's shopping was about food for tomorrow

Kids asleep, presents done, drink in hand.

Life is good.

 

[GUMBLETRON]

One benefit to living two weeks' postage from my family is I had no option but to sort my s**t out weeks ago. One of the UK's biggest shopping centres is over our back fence though and it's ******* chaos in there.

As to things that legitimately please me, the Czech word for hello is "ahoj", with the j pronounced as a y.

Congrats mate!

I finished a double degree two years ago and have done essentially nothing since, so I'll probably be joining you if I ever want a decent job.
