Le PIEDDDDD
J'avais propose a Carine il y a quelques temps de l'emmener un samedi a Shenzen faire du shopping. Elle n'a pas oublie ma proposition la bougresse et a peine rentree de ses vacances en Malaisie, J'avais un petit reminder... Alors! Flo! Ce shopping.... Oups... oui ma belle on y va ce week end.
C'est une veritable expedition alors vendredi pas de sortie (bon d'accord ce n'etait pas vraiment la bonne raison mais enfin...) dodo tot! et lever tot! car Shenzen un samedi j'ai deja fait une fois et je peux garantir que c'est hard!
8h15 nous voila sur le Ferry pour Central puis a pied jusqu'au mtr puis changement a Kowloon Tong puis KCR jusqu'a Lo Wu! Ca nous a quand meme pris 2h30 porte a porte... c'est pas la porte a cote ca! c'est indeniable.. mais bon! une fois de temps en temps ca vaut le coup.
Les deux Frenchies arrivent donc a la douane ou Carine doit faire faire son visa pour la journee. Organisees que nous sommes je commence a faire la queue pendant qu'elle fait ses papiers ce qui nous a fait gagner pas mal de temps!
Ouf ca y est, bienvenue en Chine... et bienvenue dans un des nombreux temples de la consommation specialise dans la copie en tout genre!
J'adorrreee les scrupules de Carine qui, travaillant pour une marque de luxe francaise, s'offusque de voir tant d'imitations. Certaines laissant a desirer mais d'autres pas mal du tout!
Bon, on farfouille, on fouine, on degotte des super Skinny jeans qu'il faut meriter car on a du les essayer dans un espace faisant 2m2, surchauffe, avec la vendeuse qui nous engueulait presque quand on lui disait! Ahh non ca va pas du tout la, ca baille de 10cm... Noooo it's ok, it's ok, look very good, quality very good.. ok ok ok... ok on achete mais apres avoir negocie et je peux vous assurer que le soukh de Marrakech c'est de la gnognotte!
Bref, epuisees par 3h de shopping, nous decidons de faire un foot massage + manucure pedicure! Mmmm ca va nous detendre, ca va etre fooorrrmmmiddaablllleee.
Oups je dois filer M m'attend pour aller voir Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!
A plus tard, je reviens, c'est promis.

Peter and the Balsamic Vinegar
You have Charlie and the chocolate Factory ben now you will have Peter and the balsamic vinegar....
Peter... Him....
had decided to invite M and me, 2 frenchies.... to have dinner sunday night at his place.
What a good idea... So, sunday evening we meet Peter in the IB. I brought a camembert cooouuuuulant..., some magret de canard fourre au foie gras... sorry but it tastes better in french ;-) and some bread. M a good bottle of Chablis direct from France and Peter, Peter... He forgoootttt.... I cannot believe it! Peter, we told you a salad, some olive oil and balsamic vinegar... Arrggghhhh! And where he leaves, I promise that if you forget the salt, you eat without salt!
So M and me arrive at Peter's place, Wahhooo very nice house, good taste, nice furniture and plants vases outside..ok! ok! i should not have observe so much but I love to see where and how your friends live. I think you learn more about them ;-)
So we stay outside for a drink as M and I smoke and it's not raining... the first time since 8 days... Peter serve the very very good Chablis 1997 in cristal glasses Pfffff! ands says.. ok Girls, maybe we should prepare dinner?
Come on Peter... you have for once 2 frenchies with you so.... trust us! Take care of the wine, we take care of the food... Ok, ok,.......
2 minutes later M and me in the kitchen
Euuhhh Peeettteeerrrr where can I find the vinegar?
Peter: Just behind the kitchen door
Me: Euhhh Peter, no vinegar!!!! Just 3 lonely bottels lost on those shells but no vinegar...
Anyway I will try with the soya sauce!
Pouaaarrrkkkkkk
okok, I will not do it again but I have to confess that I put some english mustard, olive oil, soya sauce and some chutney! Now I understand why Peter, trying this strange sauce, prefered an ugly instantitaliandressinginplasticbottle! I forgive you Peter!
But that's nothing comparing to M who shouted to Peter
Peterrrrrr? Where do you range your bowwwwwwls?
My balls?????????
Pouarf....... M is cramoisie, Me, ptdr and Peter is laughing so much....
We were just looking for salad Bowls but no one in Peter's place ;-)
Anyway we have spent an amazing dinner and today we have to send an email to Peter to remind him what he has to buy for the next time : Balsamic vinegar, candles and salad Bowls...
Euh Girls, the salad Bowl, I buy it in wood or in Plastic! Arrggghhhhh Peter, in wood of course ;-)
