Random musings on a Sunday morning

1. When it comes to genre fiction, the average murder/detective story is of a higher standard than the average chick-lit novel.

2. The earlier I wake up on a Sunday, the more baking I do -- hence the apple nut cake I'm just about to take out of the oven, and the cheese/sesame bread that's proving above said oven by 10.40 am.

3. I have apparently developed the ability to fall asleep to the sound of PJ playing TimeSplitters: Future Perfect on the Xbox in the bedroom -- and to remain asleep, despite him not using headphones or turning the sound down.

4. No. 3 represents the acme of perfection in terms of girlfriend behavior.

5. Multi-course restaurants are the way forward for someone who always wants to try a bit of everything on the menu. Cases in point: Restaurant Aura (Copenhagen) and Lieve (Amsterdam). Fine, fine food!

6. Trying to take funky photos of the outside of your building at 11.30 at night after a couple of vodkas (or, in PJ's case, 1 G&T, 1 large glass of wine, and 8 1/2 glasses of wine,courtesy of Lieve) WILL result in you getting dogshit on your shoes.
