RGPargy · 08/05/2009 15:57

Libras - Yummy to all of those, especially the wine!

What do you do with your chicken, bacon and leeks? What are circular roast spuds, as opposed to normal ones? lol

Have friends round as usual for a Friday.

DD and her friend will be having a bowl of mussels with some crusty bread. The younger girl has requested fish fingers.

I am then supposed to be making a meditterean vegetable lasagne, with garlic bread, served with a rocket salad and plenty of fizz

RGPargy · 08/05/2009 15:57

Sorry, the last bit was aimed at pickledHAN

We are going to the PTA Quiz night, so all participants get fish and chips!! With loads of wine on sale to help our 'leetle grey cells' (?!)

muggglewump · 08/05/2009 16:00

Baked sweet potatoes with smoked mackerel pate and salad (pate made by mushing mackerel with cream cheese).
Not much effort and really nice, and cheap too!

RGPargy · 08/05/2009 16:02

Hulababy - I think your DD's friend has sense by requesting fish fingers!! I like the sound of the veggie lasagne tho.

PP - Mmmmm fish and chips!!

Muggle - I do like sweet pots and have never tried them baked. I must do that one day lol.

It's simple, prick tatoes, switch on oven and chuck in. Et voila baked sweet potatoes!

RGPargy · 08/05/2009 16:07

I'm looking forward to some vino tonight. Yum!! Nice and chilled in my favourite purple wine glass.......
