Tid / Time

Det giver visse udfordringer at skulle have gæster en hverdagsaften når man kommer sent hjem. Især når man (jeg) elsker at lave så lidt som muligt når jeg er hjemme en aften, og ihvertfald ikke er typen, der elsker at være klar med alting i god tid.
Men i går var jeg smart! Gulerødder er revet, løg skåret og broccoli ligger nu i buketter. Så sparer jeg ihvertfald en halv time på at lave aftensmad i aften. Samtidig fik jeg set det afsnit af Dr. Who som jeg ikke havde mulighed for i lørdags! (Tænk, at jeg er blevet sådan en der ser "tv" i køkkenet.)
Nu håber jeg bare, at togene kører sådan nogenlunde efter planen, så jeg er hjemme før gæsterne. Det føles nemlig ret dumt, når de sidder udenfor og venter på mig. (Been there, done that.)

It gives rise to some challenges having guests on a weekday evening, when you get home late. Especially when you (I) love to do as little as possible when finally at home for a night, and when you're definitely not the type who loves to be ready with everything early on.
But yesterday, I was smart! Carrots are grated, onions cut and the broccoli is now waiting in small bits. Which will spare me half an hour of cooking tonight. At the same time, I got to watch the episode of Dr. Who which I missed on Saturday! (Imagine me being one of those people who watch "tv" in the kitchen!)
So now I hope the trains will be more or less in time, and that I will be home before my guests. It does feel kind of stupid getting home when they sit outside waiting! (Been there, done that.)
