Friday night curry

I'm enjoying my current book "A Fine Balance" by Rohinton Mistry, which is set in India during the 1970s and portrays the caste system and the changes in society through its different characters. It's really interesting so far and I was reading it in bed last night until I was very sleepy. James was in London overnight but Jack woke me up in plenty of time for work and took me downstairs to feed him. After a long day at work, which involved a scary trip to hospital with one of my staff, I felt the need for a comforting curry so I stopped off at our local Indian takeaway. Having a curry (chicken pista pasanda) is something I associate with relaxing on a Friday night. As soon as I got out of the car I smelled the lovely aromas that are almost better than the taste of the food! James arrived home from London and we have settled down to watch an episode of Torchwood, feeling cosy with the rain pattering on the glass roof of the back room. This is the life!
