Cool! It's 10 years since my cooks days but I still love cheffing even on the personal scale. Often thought i'd like to give my own place a shy, but sadly lacking hundreds of thousands of pounds of random money

She looks like her mum...
Sometimes it seems as though one has to cross the line just to figger out where it is
Re: Master chefette
I am so proud of her.
(Beside myself with pride.)
She also received an award at her school assembly today for completing a Mental Health certified course for being a peer counselor at her school.
I can't fault her in any aspect and it is getting really difficult to keep saying "No", to her requests for "kittehs".

Re: Master chefette
She wants two. She has her heart set on two.
In her mind she knows the kittehs she wants and has names for them.
She will be sadly disappointed. They will not be the kittehs she imagines.
She has only known one 'kitteh', my old muscle mate, Tiger.
And he weren't no kitteh by any stretch of the imagination.
She thinks all cats are like him ... but maybe with a little training. I tried telling her that it is a rare cat that will take well to training and Tiger wasn't a cat, more a lion in a tabby coat.

Re: Master chefette
And she's not having kittens!

Re: Master chefette
Oh let her get her kittehs. Nothing cuter than a pair of feline babies curled up together. And if she thinks they will be easy to train, let her try. Another learning experience, and perhaps she will surprise you. Kittehs can be quite malleable (when they want to be ).

Re: Master chefette
You can sort of train A cat, two cats are partners in crime.
Isn't she going off to college soon? She won't be able to take any kittehs with her.

Re: Master chefette
Kittehs are highly over rated.
She needs a Dingo...

Re: Master chefette
You & Gob had better be on board with those kittehs - because yes, when she goes off to college, they're yours for at least a few years (unless she lives off-campus).
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Re: Master chefette
Our colleges are usually off-campus operations. The one she is going to is only 12 kilometres away from home. She will be living with us for a minimum two years. It is the step to University that would be teh difficult one. She really wants to get into Oxford and I have no reason to doubt that she wont be accepted.
Damn. Kittehs are out.

Ok., she can have them, as long as I can do the "bag and a brick" trick when they stop being cute.Guinevere wrote:Oh let her get her kittehs. Nothing cuter than a pair of feline babies curled up together.

Kitten soup, yummy!

Re: Master chefette
Yeah Gob has always said he'd eat anything he killed himself.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.
