Chinese takeaway

Continuing the spirit of trying new stuff whilst my kids are away, last night I had my first ever Chinese takeaway. I realise that might sound odd as a 40 year old Westerner, but it's true!
At some point in my youth I went to a Chinese restaurant and din't at all like the meal I had - too oily and fishy tasting. I made the same mistake last night and had a bite of prawn cracker, which really made my mouth cringe. I like Quavers so it's not the texture, it's the fish taste and I have never liked fish. Anyway, undeterred I continued with the vegetarian banquet we'd ordered and really really liked a honey tasting cashew nut dish. So, it will not be my last :)
I realise I've never ordered a takeaway at all to this house (we collected it ourselves last night) and given how often in movies takeout pizza appears, it's something my children have never experienced in real life - seems a bit daft when you can throw a pizza in the oven and it be done before you've even phoned up for one. When they're back i'll introduce them to a chinese dish and we'll see how we get on.

It doesn't feel much like wednesday today. I think partly cos I'm having such an unusual week, but partly cos I know I'm going tonight to my Friday night choir rather than my wednesday one! But first, work.
