Sunday after the feast

Lazing on the sofa after last nights dinner party, which was held for our very good friend who is also Mia's Godmother Jayne.

I being the only guy, was treated to being surrounded by my favorite kind of women. Funny, curvy and enjoy my cooking. All of Karen's friends.

On the menu was roasted shoulder of lamb and loin of pork, Pan fried chicken thighs and ribbons of steak in a caramel glaze. Now, I did a sweet tomato relish that should have gone with the chicken thighs, but alas, I forgot to mention that was the plan. Karen made a layered potato and onion bake and a large mixed salad. I do hope the ladies were not just being polite by saying they enjoyed the food, I'd rather honest comments, so I could improve the dishes. I do really enjoy cooking for people, but only as a friends thing.

Being surrounded by nice ladies is all well and good, but, as always because they happen to all work together the conversation turns to talking shop and their gripes, so I sloped off to sit with my daughter Mia watching TV cartoons for a break.

Anyhoo I do hope they all enjoyed themselves.
