Hi Honey! How are you today? Are you hungry? What are you having for dinner? For dinner, I'm having leftover curry with bread. Nothing special. But for lunch, I made shepherd's pie. Shepherd's pie is usually meat and veggies with mash potato on top and baked, sometimes with cheese. I thought about making shepherd's pie balls (like rice balls), but I kept it safe and made it in a pan. I'm actually lactose intolerant, but I love cheese, and I can handle the homemade alfredo pasta I sometimes make. I had a dream a couple of days ago that I blended mint and parsley in milk to make mash potato. So that's what I did: I bought a kid's size box of milk, and blended mint and cilantro in milk (I didn't want to travel for the parsley). I only used a little milk, then drank the rest. The mash potato was awesome, the problem was that there wasn't enough of it. I should have used a whole kilo of potatoes instead of half. The shepherd's pie was OK, just needed more mashed potato. But the combination of milk and ketchup (I shouldn't have eaten it with ketchup) turned the whole thing into Turbo-Lax. Sigh. Why can't I be wiser when I make and eat the stuff? I'm going to have to try again.
Hey Natty Honey! Are you having tons of fun? You certainly look like it. That vegetation is what the gorillas eat, I presume. Do you like the jungle? I suppose since you were on a mountain, there weren't that many bugs. You may enjoy the jungle around here, but it's wet and hot. My grandfather used to have an fruit orchard in the jungle which I used to go to, and stay overnight sometimes. It's probably still there, but I have no interest in maintaining it. Yes Honey, such a thing is a massive undertaking of labor, and I'm busy being a rock star. That's the job given to me by Allah, and that is how I will sustain my family inshaAllah. You are too beautiful to suffer the hardships of an outdoor life Natty, even though you have fun there sometimes. But to do it all the time... I just want to take care of you. Have some shepherd's pie. Don't eat it with ketchup.
