I know what's for lunch tomorrow

My wife , son and mother-in-law have just returned from the 3 day trip to France . The only remark I got from the wife over the scooter I bought was ..." can't leave you alone for five minutes and you have to do something stupid like that ... worse then your son "
Anyway , they brought some good "foie gras" and a little bit truffles ( not really truffle season , but why not ) and nice french cheeses you cannot find around her .
Mother in law is an excellent cook and said she will make "tournedos Rossini" for lunch ... can't wait !

Oh man haven't had a Rossini in years.

Over here they can't spell Tournedos or Entrecote'.

Try to order a "Rossini black & white" and they look at you like you were from another planet.

That is really pushing it .. Piemontese Alba madonna's and Perigourdines from Sorges mixed ?


Guess you have been taken for an alien for less before , no ?

I knew she would flip, if you do not talk it over with the boss you are in deep s**t, and do not tell me she is not the boss. I guess you are in the dog house again.

You only bought one scooter. She knows how much worse it could have been and deep down in her heart of hearts she knows that by leaving you alone she is the responsible adult and you are not to blame. I just hope that you can recover from this without too many mental scars. If it was me i would have my solicitor start proceedings against her.

Delirious

Since when buying a scooter is a stupid thing???

If she was changing the curtains and furniture for the third time in a year, is it clever ?
