Who's Cooking Tonight?

Part V of The Battys
Oh boy.  The Batty's came back today to cook a special meal for us.  I think Alan must have arranged it when he heard we were going to have my home made pizza for dinner.  I really don't understand why he doesn't like it.  He has banned me from making pizza (no word of a lie) saying that even Kathi's teach-in did nothing to improve the brick-hard remnants that emerge from the oven!  You have to admit that is harsh.

 Blondie was at the stove straight away.   Just look at her eager little face.

Not many people know that Little Red trained as a sushi chef in Japan some years back.  She came armed with her own knives and ready to get chopping.

 I am pretty sure they think they are on Masterchef.

Oh, do they love having fun or what?  Just look at those girls, I have never seen so much dancing and singing in my kitchen before, at least not when I'm using it.  Alan occasionally comes in and does his funny knee bending dance, but he just hasn't got their rhythm.  Do you think they are professionally trained (dancers not chef's, keep up)?

Oh how sweet, Norah is making me some chocolate chip cookies.  Apparently those chips were donated by Mary.

I can't wait to eat one

 Oh no!  Norah's eaten so many of the cookies, she's fallen over from the added weight.  Get up girl and get cooking again!!

 Little Red, being the trained chef, is always eager to get going.  She told me her green oven mitt was a present from the sushi restaurant where she trained.  I can't work out why sushi chefs need mitts.  I'm just hoping she doesn't serve any to me!

Blondie, I know just how you are feeling.  You open the fridge door and think 'what the heck am I going to cook tonight'.  Just look at her scratching her head.  

 For goodness sake Blondie, make up your mind.  It doesn't matter how far in you delve, the only thing at the back of the fridge is always green and furry.  In my fridge, the stuff you can actually eat gets pushed to the front and the green stuff is just in there to make it look like there actually is something in there.  COME ON, YOU'RE LETTING IN ALL THE WARM AIR!

 Err, has Blondie fallen asleep in there?

I just love that the girls clean up after themselves.  Little Red told me that there is an art to stacking a dishwasher.  Boy, just look at her fill that thing.  Woohoo!  I can see the smoke trails from her rapidly moving arms.

Blondie and Norah are Luddites at heart.  I have never ever seen them near the dishwasher.  Hey, there is a lot to be said for doing it the old fashioned way (by it I mean the washing up, you dirty minded people!).
