not a giant, but a colossal squid

A 450kg (990lb) colossus squid was caught off Antarctica by a New Zealand fisherman.




The squid will probably end up in a museum.

What a waste. No salt and pepper squid.

Devi came around tonight for a dinner of baked lamb chops marinated in preserved lemon, soy sauce and marmalade, served with baby King Edward potatoes and broccolini.

It was good to have company as Margaret went to Sydney on Wednesday and returns this Sunday. Returning from work to an empty house is awful. Keiser used to greet me at the door when I came home. Yesterday was awful. Crying comes easy.
