Erin's top 10

Welcome to what might be a regular feature, or a once only.

Erin is my flat mate at unit 1. We also have an honorary flatmate, her boyfriend Mark. She (with his assistance and my editing skills) compiled a list of the top 10 reasons why she enjoys living with me (odd, I know) ...... This was her idea, not mine

1. I now have at my disposal my very own Melbourne Tour Guide (happy to take me shopping, dining at 15 and to the Melbourne Museum where I can see the first coffee machine brought to Australia by the Italians.)
2. Jamie Oliver +Martha Stuart= Emma. She possesses the ability to concoct Salad dressing, whipping it up in a mere moment with the ease of a Chef (I didn't have the heart to tell her that it's much better not whipped up in 'a mere moment' rather left so the flavor has time to develop.)
3. Emma's refined research skills, when it comes to legal and personal matters, should not be under-estimated.
4. She is willing to take the blame for my lack of self control - the snack basket will be my pudgy demise.
5. She has introduced me to the world of Australian cleaning products, specifically Napisan (oxy action plus) and the Cinderella range.
6. She makes a mean coffee in the wee hours (ie 8am)(that would be 'early' according to Erin.)
7. Her mean sandwich making machine (marinated fetta, spinach, tuna, tomato, pesto, sundered tomatoes....and whatever else is around)is an all important white good in the unit
8. SMIGGLE
9. She shares(or perhaps I should say indulges) my need to stay up to date with the enthralling and absolutely scandalous news concerning the world's most 'important and influential people;' those who are famous. (movie stars and all those other sort of 'very interesting' opinionated and significant individuals! yes really)
10. Being blessed by Emma's presence each day. (I think she was running out of points)
