All that glisters...
DH serving darling Aunty Kay. (reminding myself what good food looks like!)
Okay, so the restaurant I went to last night is one of those where you have to book 3 months in advance. Accordingly, I booked in with some chums for this coming Wednesday, and with their husbands and my dh in October- and even, rashly, for the whole extended sprog tribe for my birthday lunch in November...
I wish I could tell you that I had a scrumptious meal and can't wait for my next one, but... my vegetables were greasy.
In order to understand what a major crime this is I should explain that I adore vegetables. Meat and 3 veg is more likely to be 10 veg and something/anything else in this household.
I changed my mind on my planned menu and ate stir fry of sea food for my main course. The fish was delicious, but it was plonked on top of a whole heap of over-cooked slimy stuff that was basically all one colour, so I'm not even sure what I ate and can't tell you about it.
Serves me right for being smug. Here's hoping I have better news for you after lunch on Wednesday!
Meanwhile, from your grumpy, disgruntled friend,
Emjoy the rest of your weekend everyone!
