Corporate Orphans rocked this year!
It felt like a bit of a pain in the ass. We picked our date well in advance, had booked a resturaunt and were all ready to go... and then a few weeks ago the french door company said "hey, we're coming out on the 16th!" and I went.... ah. OK.
So Corporate Orphans this year was moved to my house, and involved celebrating the french doors being installed at the same time! I kept Master 3 home to play with the other little kids that were coming over, bought a lot of booze, and grabbed a Mynxii and settled in. And gosh did we settle in!
I also got this bloody fish from Mum. She had been given it but it was too big for just her and Dad, so she had tried to give it to me ages ago. Anyway, yesterday seemed like the day for it, so I got the fish... and it was massive. Just HUGE. So huge that it didn't defrost for most of the day...
And I tried to make every one either stay for dinner to help eat the bugger or else invited new people to help eat it!
Looks like fish curry for dinner tonight... any takers...?
No?
*sigh*
It's lovely fish, too.
:-)
We had some awesome food yesterday. Foamiethegreeny and lucretiae brough ribs and salad, splanky brought potato salad and chocolate mousse, mynxii brought lemon infused olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and turkish bread, and I opened my caramelised balsamic vinegar and also the truffle infused organic extra virgin olive oil too.
And in a fit of enthusiasm, Mynxii and I made dukkah too.
It was a fantastic party, had a great time and got to catch up with people I don't see very often.
