Petit Nail Diary

OMG.

I had the best dinner ever today. Total grocery bill was $7.20 (packet of penne and fresh tomatoes including random stuff like cherry tomatoes i insisted on buying) Ok my point is, my smelly farty boyfriend cooked dinner for me! I think its the first time a boyfriend cooked anything for me. That's really sad and happy at the same time eh?

Anyway, HE COOKED FOR ME!! I just can't get over it.

It really initially was my idea to cook and eat at home, because we had some leftover gourmet sausages and fresh button mushrooms, so I thought, why not cook pasta? Then we went to mustafa to pick up some penne and pasta sauce, thinking it was going to be an easy quest, I just set off to the pasta section, looked around for a decent packet of penne and was about to walk off with one when he says, 'NOoo. We have to pick a good italian brand!' *rolls eyes* Then he picked his pack of packed pasta then I headed off to the pasta sauce section, thinking of just picking up a bottle of prego sauce, fast and easy. BUT NO. He says, 'Are you mad? I'm italian, we make our sauce from scratch, not eat bottled sauce.' Seriously? *Roll eyes to the back of my head* Then I nudge off the indians (it's mustafa lah) surrounding the tomato mountain to pick some ripe ones. Then proceeded to pay.

So I thought, urgh, I have to spend more time chopping tomatoes and making the sauce from scratch. Then Mr Picky says go and relax, i'll make the pasta.

WAH. first time leh. sorry i'm still reeling from it.

I didn't know whether to trust him in the kitchen so i progressively went from, you can or not? you sure you don't need help? you can handle it? you need me to do anything? to....oh ok, sure ah, don't need help ah. ok, i want mine spicy. haha. So tralala, hop and a skip to the room to chill maaaan. Spent about an hour holed up in the room watching youtube videos and laughing my ass off. Then he comes in and TAADAAAA. A dubious looking plate of pasta.

So we sat ourselves in front of the telly and started watching the movie OUTSOURCED and I took my first real bite of the pasta.

YUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMS!!!!!

Ok that's all I can say. Basically my boyfriend outdid himself by cooking for his girl and making pasta sauce from scratch. Impressive.

Yummiest pasta, funny movie, lotsa cuddles and hugs on the sofa = great date

The simplest and most enjoyable things in life often come for free, or at an extremely affordable price of $7.20.
Conclusion is, leave the pasta making to the Italians. They KNOW what they are doing. This particular italian does housework and adds softener to laundry, dilutes dishwashing liquid before use (claims he is saving the earth). Italian man-servant for hire anybody? Price negotiable. I'm his agent. :D hahahahahha.

Goodnight everybody.
