Yep, London still grim! Funny, but UBS called me about a job a few months ago. I didn't follow it up. I've done a little C# but kinda got stuck with my current project, feeling my way through it slowly. Java is my first love. I developed a trading system, and had to hook its ordering up with some ropey C#. yuk.
Oh Pete,
I was still working out how to get to Tracy's, but thought though her potluck was last Thursday.Ding!! I can't promise, but I will try to make it.
My butternut squash is soaking as we speak.
So Pete, you are a bit of a chef on the quiet too!!
I like that butternut squash soup. Nice and quick. There used to be a time in my life when a soup was an all day affair, soaking peas overnight,boiling meat for hours and then adding the stodge in. My friend said that the only reason I am raw, is because I can't be bothered to ,cook. Is that a compliment/insult?
I just smiled, observing while she served her 2 beautiful children white pasta with cheddar cheese,followed by some chocolate cereal bar. Of course she completely forgot that she was at the doctor's the day before with one of them who had another asthma attack. Hmmm
Chop half a butternut squash and soften it in warm water for 5 minutes. Meanwhile put a handful of coconut chips, a small banana, half a teaspoon of salt and a teaspoon of curry powder into your Vitamix. Add a clove of garlic if you like it. Then put the squash and water in, whizz for a couple fo minutes until smooth and warm.

There are many reasons why people are overweight – stress, lack of exercise, lack of knowledge concerning correct nutrition, over-worked, laziness etc. But I believe one of the most potent reasons for overeating is emotions. It is a well-known fac...
