Lemon Meringue Pie, and its eventual cost

I just have to smile at my husband.

He is the one doing the shopping (an excuse for getting out of the house) whereas I prefer staying in my cave.

What gives me the giggles is that without penny-turning-me being around when he goes shopping, every time he comes back from buying groceries / vegetables / drinks, he comes back with some gizmo for the kitchen.

Today he went out to get potatoes and carrots, came back with those PLUS an electronic scale for it "will help him bake better banana breads". Just opened a cupboard now and found an electric mixer he bought two weeks ago. When I asked him about it, he told me it is so he can bake more fluffy cakes. Go figure.

Add to this the fact that winter is approaching and I wanna get back into making meat pies and also with us having been back here for almost a year the BIG desire is rearing its ugly head again: BOEREWORS. What is more South African than Boerewors? As we obviously can not find pies nor boerewors here (nor Mrs Balls) we have to make them ourselves. This all means that as soon as we get back from India we will have to invest in even MORE machines ....

Won't Mau be happy to go out and buy those ;-))).

Buying more gadgets means that our kitchen is definitely getting too small, meaning we will have to move - soon.

Won't Mau be happy, again!!!
