tvordljI wasn't sure what to blog for this day of the 30 day blog thing. I'm not really a youtube junkie like some people. There's some good stuff out there, of course. Most of the ones i have saved as favourites are either Coronation Street related (no surprised there) or Achmed the Dead Terrorist. That's a ventriloquist act that's quite funny. The one i'm going to blog today is one of the funniest Corrie scenes i've seen. Be WARNED though, there's a honking big hairy spider in the scene, might be a radio control one or not but if you have any squicky feelings about arachnids, avoid. Alec, who owns the pub, has a health inspector in checking the renovated kitchen and the spider is crawling across the countertop. It had been in a jar on display but had escaped a few days earlier. Alec is trying to hide it from the inspector and ends up having to squash it. Ew. Yes. I know.
I had a good workout on Monday at the gym. I seemed to get through the sets a bit easier, doing more reps and/or with heavier weight on some of them. The trainer noticed too. One more session, today, before Christmas and i'm borrowing Mom's car for a few days and will get to the gym with that next week a couple of times. That's the plan anyway. We'll see how it all pans out with other stuff going on and weather conditions. Christmas Eve we only have to work until noon. I don't have a lot of stuff to take to Mom's because i carried over the bigger things the other weekend.
I also made a nice curry the other night though hotter than i expected it to turn out. First time i used the vindaloo curry paste though so i'm sure that's hotter than the biryani that i normally get. It was a pork vindaloo from Jamie Oliver's book and i simmered it a long time to reduce the liquid more. That would have concentrated the spices too. I had the leftovers last night. Yes, on top of the cinnamon candies. No wonder i woke with a sore mouth!
