Dear Olive,
We had a great weekend. Although, thinking back on it, I can't really remember what we did! There was a lot of food. And there was a lot of tennis. Usually together. I cooked a really yummy chicken and sweet potato curry* with cucumber relish for a friend** who came over to watch the tennis on Friday night (recipe here). Saturday, a friend dropped off two fish he'd just caught. Caught! We made two more delicious meals out of them and gobbled them down. Although, that was Shane and I. You ate a lot of eggs, served every which way, and you listened to your Holly Throsby record. A lot. (To say you're obsessed is an understatement.) Also, where's your mullet gone? It's morphed into a rats tail. I think you've been twisting it up and pulling it out, which is a bit of a worry.
*I've made it before and this time I tweaked it with more curry, less liquid. It's really fragrant and totally yum.
**This talented lady. I visited her studio on Sunday - it's all very exciting, she's having an exhibition soon. Info to come!

Ooh that Holly Throsby CD looks great. Kids CDs get so boring don't they?!
I love the way you write this blog, Olive will have a magical time reading it all one day.
Oohhh, think I'll have to get that cd. A fun, food-filled weekend - couldn't think of anything better x
Sounds like a fab weekend.....food, music and family :) xxx
oh! must.get.CD! Annika likes my seeker lover keeper cd so I think she may get into this too - we need some new music
Hurray for excellent weekends
I'm loving the sound of Holly Throsby. Thanks for the tip. You mustn't have wanted that weekend to end, sounded perfect! xo
I hung out with my friends daughter on the weekend, miss 15 month old who screamed if I didn't repeat (28 times) Gotye 'somebody that I used to know'....
Love the mullet/rats tail! Seems to totally suit Olives personality xxx
More curry less liquid sounds so good. And I love Olive's curls : )
The Holly cd is fantastic!
Yummy food, great music and a super cool rats tail - what's not to love!
An absolutely awesome weekend. My girl is growing a mullet..although around here we call it the Wisconsin Waterfall... :)
Please please please can I have the curry recipe? That fish looks amazing and oh so fresh. If you can't have a mullet then a rat's tail is the next best thing! Who needs a hairdresser, right? I'm going to check out that CD as well. Kimya Dawson's Alphabutt is also unreal. xx
That fish looks amazing! Sounds like you had a fun and relaxing weekend. x
I never remember what I did on the weekend, glad I am not the only one!
Mullets/rat tails + baby = cute
