Nutmeg makes a meal 'special'

The butcher at the fish counter at Whole Foods cut the bones out of my Black Cod and then made jokes about being Samuri Fish Monger. He also said that his mother should have guessed when he took her expensive kitchen knives out into the yard to throw at trees that he wasn't going to become a lawyer or an accountant.

They did not have the fudge I wanted for dessert, so I bought dark chocolate sauce and caramel and I am going to mix them. Can that possibly be wrong?

I still haven't sent Madhu's Christmas Gift and I bet I could write down here exactly what it is and she'd still be surprised when she got it.

What does one get a 73 year old man who has no use for clothes, too much stuff and a wife who nags?

I love dressing my god-daughter. I just wish I could do it more. She's so cute and little. I remember when everything looked exactly right on me. And the clothes are cheaper for girls, too.

Ramon spent like the whole freaking night talking to me. He would have kept going, too, but I begged exhaustion and went to my room. I fell asleep almost immediately. Wow. And he likes to chide me about how much I talk.

I really like the serum by Boots No. 7. It's from England, and it's available at Target. It's not as costly as Prescriptives and I think it's better than Line pReventor. Less sticky. More soothing.
Anyway, the spots on my face have healed from their removal last week. And I almost like my hair color. Now, I just need it cut. Which is tomorrow.

So, I have pasta, and cream and mushrooms to go with the fish. I have salad and nuts and dried fruit and shallots to go with the meal. I have banannas, and apples and strawberries and cookies to go with the fondue. I have wine to go with the night. I've even wrapped the obligatory tie... hey, he asked me for it. It's uninspired, but appropriate.
Happy Valentine's Day!
