Spell My Name

I went to visit my old side-kick who's now the Head Chef here. First I had a dozen oysters kilpatrick. Mmm... very fresh!
Then while I was waiting for my main course I munched on a tomato bruschetta. Crunchy! Then came the "Picante Grande" steak! Ooh... it's 500gms and the piquant sauce is really nice!
I had trouble deciding between the tiramisu and the sticky date pudding... so I had them both! :P I then went into the kitchen to see my buddy in action. He's a little bit camera shy. Hehehe!

On Friday I finally received my very own personalized 06/07 FCB kit. It came straight from Spain so I was really excited! Woohoo! But to my shock they misspelled my name! Oh my goodness... how difficult is it to print M-A-R-V-I-N ? Oh dear, oh dear... oh dear!

It's been almost 2 months since my previous entry. I still have to catch up on all the un-answered comments. Well, it's the same old excuse... I was busy at work and I really had no time to upload anything. Besides, I did nothing interesting anyway. Hehehe!

Okay... um, so I went to see my friend last week. He's now the head chef at Vaby's. One thing I like about Mediterranean food is the portion size. Sure, it's nice to go to a fancy restaurant and get a 250gm main dish which is presented like a Van Gough painting... but I'd rather have a 500gm steak covered with a hearty sauce. Yum!!!

So that was nice. Another highlight of the week was the Barcelona kit that I received in the mail on Friday. No question about it... I am a really big fan! So much so that every year I buy a jersey straight from the club itself. And I do prefer to have my own name printed on the back. It's really special and I think it's really cool!!!

Anyway, this year they stuffed up my jersey. Instead of M-A-R-V-I-N they printed M-A-R-W-I-N. Geez! It's not that hard, is it? It's the first time I had to send a merchandise back to them and it's a real pity because it looked so nice, especially the gold on blue and red. But it's really of no use to me because it ain't my name. As simple as that!

So now I have to wait another 2 or 3 weeks to have it replaced. Hmm... I'll just have to wear my FCB boxer shorts then. Hehehe! :)
