Ok...not so happy for me. I think I'm getting sick! So forgive me that my post won't be full of whit and humor and be the best post ever, because, well, it just won't be.
I had a good weekend, spent time with friends, with family, with wine ;) it was a good time. Sunday night was the family get together, for my dad's birthday (Happy birthday old man!). In my push for us to get creative and live outside the box, I suggested that Gareth try cooking some indian food for dinner (I know, I love it too that my crazy schemes always end up involving Gareth).
To put it mildly, he did a fantastic job. It was an amazing! Dinner.
This is the butter chicken he made. He said it was fairly easy to make, it just had a lot of ingredients. I forgot to get the recipe, I'll post that soon. He also made a shrimp curry, which I forgot to take a picture of.
Hard working hottie!
Gareth also made some naan bread. He practiced once during the week, tweaked his technique, and he had yummy bread for dinner.
This is some of them rising.
Does that t-towel look strategicaly placed to you?? It does to me!
I decided to lend a hand and whipped up a strawberry, cashew, tomatoe feta spinach salad.
I wanted it to be really light, to complement the main dishes, so I decided to make my own dressing. I muddled strawberries in our mortar and pestle, added some lemon juice and pepper, and it was great!
Once the family arrived, the camera was forgotton, so now pictures of our plates or anything, sorry! But it was a success, with some lovely white wine to go with it.
Tonight I think I will veg at home, try to feel better.
Until tomorrow!
