I spent the afternoon putting together a blog about cooking a lamb shoulder in the Weber (kettle braai / barbecue) but I am now no longer motivated to do that. So in the dilly dallying 'I feel the music' friday mood I thought I would just share a few tunes with the gazillion readers of my blog.
Tanita Tikaram - Twist of Sobriety
Now something you should know...
I made what seemed a good decision to take no alcohol into my system for the entire month of January . I am twisting in my sobriety ... dang, cooking is less fun... music is less fun... and last evening we dined out and drinking sparkling water all night ...{sighhh}..not my cup of tea ... to coin a phrase.
George Thorogood - If you dont start drinking....
So how has my body reacted ? Well, mostly I have been tired and drained... sleeping long hours and just pure SULKY !!
My good lady reminds me it was my decision made purely on my own.. and have a drink if you want one she barks when she sees my hangdog face.
George Thorogood - One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer
But I am exaggerating ... has not been that bad. The biggest challenge was finding a substitute to drink as I do not enjoy soft drinks, and one can only drink so much water in the day. So at around 18h00 in the afternoon, when I would usually pour myself a drink I now make some decent filter coffee with fresh cream instead of milk... I eat lots and lots of ice cream and go to bed early {grin} ...
Crank up this next one and get in the Friday mood...limber up for the weekend... trust me this is an absolute classic.
Thin Lizzy - Whiskey in the Jar
Stay well, weekend even weller, have a drink for me and thanks for stopping by... I feel better after all the whining !!!!
