Tom phoned me from school on Friday to remind me that it was Languages week and his class were performing a poem in Mandarin for the parents. He knew that I wouldn't want to miss it and he was right. It was very sweet hearing all the boys speak Mandarin and I was then able to look around the classroom at all their work on the walls. Tom's teacher takes great pride in displaying their work and the classroom looks beautiful.
When I had my friends round for drinks and a vague attempt at dinner the other night one of them, Kara, turned up with the most amazing salmon dish that had us all swooning. The very next day I googled it and forwarded the recipe to Trudie who I share a lot of recipes with. On Saturday night we had Craig and Lisa round for dinner so I decided it was the perfect opportunity to try the yummy salmon myself. At 4.30pm I got an email from Trudie letting me know that she was trying the salmon that night too - we're all so original in Balgowlah Heights! There were lots of texts flying around with photos of the dishes à la Masterchef. I declared Trudie the winner as she bothered to caramelise her limes.
