Reading myself silly

Gave myself a treat yesterday at Coffee Club after a trip to the bank after work. Bought a Jeffery Deaver novel and proceeded to read the book with a shepherd pie and ice passion fruit tea. Been sometime since I took large amount of dairy products and the antibiotics make the protests from my GI worst than ever. Well, a little price paid for the nice vanilla ice cream;-)

Jeffery Deaver can really write. His books never failed to entertain me no matter what state I am in. From Lincoln Rhymes to Kathryn Dance, different angles, different professional type but equally good. For a detective based novel, the layers and emotions were actually expressed well despite using simple words. Found a new Japanese author (translated to Chinese) who writes pretty well too. Most Jap based novels have a pretty standard way and language style which it is unique to them. Despite that I can't read Jap and the novels actually went through many translators(even in one book) but the language usage is the same.

Ate alot of stuff which strains my GI recently. Finally guilt strikes me and guess what? I prepared tomato and pumpkin soup. All natural with only pinch of salt and sugar to taste! Luckily my culinary skills had not faded with lack of practice else I would have to stuff myself with things that I shouldn't be eating:-)
