Tomorrow is our anniversary and I stupidly decided I wanted to hype it up and have a lovely evening in drinking cooking and relaxing.
I have had the menu planned for days and, DP having left this morning on a business trip, I've sat down to look at it again and decided everything needs to go.
The only bits I'm keeping are roasted peaches with goats' cheese & honey (DP loves honey) and Guinness chocolate pudding (I love Guinness, he loves chocolate).
I was thinking of making small dishes we could share/bitesize food but I don't want to waste anything with leftover ingredients. DP hates anything he deems 'processed' and will probably be craving fresh food following this trip as he will have eaten fast food for lunch, dinner and lunch tomorrow. I don't eat pork (am happy to make it for him but, again, feel it would be a waste for one person). We both like any kind of different food/taste experiences but I'm on a curry binge at the minute so he'd probably be happier if nothing curried/overly spicy turned up on the table.
I don't mind buying anything extra. Currently we have tomatoes, baby leaf spinach, onions, potatoes, butternut squash x2 and various cupboard bits (pulses, rice etc.).
Can anybody bash me over the head steer me in the right direction please? I have a gazillion cooking books and loads of bookmarks but I can't make my mind up. It needs to be good as this is my present to him. Thank you!
