We had roast pork, roast spuds, mashed spuds, carrots, red cabbage, brocs and a mixture of peas, green beans and mint.. oh and some apple sauce.

To follow, homemade rhubarb and plum crumble with custard or zabaliogni (sp) trifle.

Then espresso and chocs to follow.

bellavitalikesthesimnellife · 12/04/2009 19:24

and dips to start with whilst waiting for my brother and wife to arrive.

Portoeufino · 12/04/2009 19:29

Ooh I did. Dinner was to be ready for 6pm. After Dh and dd came back from planet kids. So I thought I would have a small glass whilst cooking. Unexpected visitors so I had to be hospitable and offer them a drink. Dinner 7.30. Dd now in bed and the golf is on.

Portoeufino · 12/04/2009 19:30

I am an hour ahead of UK....

ComeOeufeneer · 12/04/2009 19:32

Yabu, to both be drinking and eating (bitter voice of a woman struck down with D+V bug after 7 days of nursing the rest of the family through it)

Spidermama · 12/04/2009 19:34
