12 October 08



We all went to the TMG picnic in Shinjuku Gyoen, on a sunny but cool day - perfect conditions. It was good to finally meet the dads as well, and there were lots of new members. Emily was not keen to eat her lunch - she just wanted to crawl on the huge expanse of grass (and eat leaves). There was lots of pointing going on, especially at birds.
I was glad that my samosas went down well; I had never tried the recipe before and had a bit of a nightmare making them, exacerabated by men arriving to clean the aircon and cooker hood filters just when I was assembling them for the oven. Probably best to stick to a tried and tested recipe when under pressure, though actually it all turned out well in the end, after a bit of tension.
