Dinner Parties
So a dear friend of mine and her girlfriend came by before she had to fly off to the land of bad food, and the kitchen got a request for my mini burgers and tagliatelle bianco. Dinner went down perfectly, we had dubby’s version of Surf & Turf – crispy fried prawns on pasta bianco served with mini burgers topped with lovely melty cheese, carmelized onions, pickles and tomatoes. The conscience even screamed so I made a light salad with a basil dressing, and of course there was my cheesecake which was all on request.
Tonight, 3 more friends are coming over – belle, meow and ashwin. The menu will be as follows:
Starter
Main Courses (both served with pasta pepperonata)
Dessert
Alrighty-ho, it’s time to cook. I might have pictures later depending.
Edit: Okay I just sliced a piece of my thumb clean off my hand. haha. It’s not very painful, but kind of inconvenient.
2nd Edit: If you guys want pictures of the food, go bug Ashwin to develop his film and post them. I was too lazy to shoot so I let him do the work. ;p

Aww. :) The thumb’s okay – it’s just kind of getting in the way I guess. Like texting is difficult. :p Anyway, glad you got back safely! I’ll speak to you soon, love.

Eh but I don’t like vinegar. Blah. Nevermind I’m sure there’s something else I can try hurhur.
