That Pamanhikan may have put ideas in my Mom's head. Tonight, she pointedly taught me how to clean a fish, where to pull out the gills, the spine (if it's bangus/milkfish), all the blood and all the icky parts the supermarket may have overlooked.

You complete star:
Congratulations.

Now you can enjoy the summer feeling free.

Also; I'm amazed: you have Nigella on telly out there? OMG, she is soooo food porn, the way she presents. (No, I don't watch her. I don't have a telly at home).

So when do you get to watch Nigella? I try not to watch Nigella too much, I get too hungry and never in the mood to cook, just to eat, haha.

It's not summer here anymore, the rainy season has settled in; our summer vacation is a scant April to May. But, yeah, I do have that free summer feeling. It's going to last for the length of time till my thesis adviser emails me back with comments, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Hee, thanks. The rolling congratulations made me curtsy all over again.

Oh, Nigella watching is an accidental thing one couldn't escape here a few years ago. And, what with the rumours that she was sleeping with her husband's friend(who she later married) while he lay on his death bed; her completely impossibly sexy homemaker image with time to ice fairy cakes and all, and a few other trivial things that induce snidey distaste for her, she's not the most universally popular creature in London.

We've had much of june and July in the eighties (over 30oC) and it's rumoured that august will be hotter! I imagine that's quite cool for you guys, though.

I finished writing my thesis.

Yay! Congrachoolations!

Re. fishy matters, I haven't done it yet, either :P I'll probably end up Google-ing 'how to gut fish'. It's nice that your mom is there to teach you! =)
