Lunches

Adam and I both leave the house at the same time now which I like because it is nice to have someone to talk to in the morning. I even like making his lunch. Here is a selection of his fruit which looks like a smiley face!

Granola

Margaret got me granola from Frangipan! It is no ordinary granola, it is chock full of almonds, pumpkin seeds and raisins and the granola is crispy and not too sweet. We only had it for a few days before it was gone. It inspired me to make my own gourmet granola with pumpkin seesds, almonds, coconut, walnuts and craisins. I burnt it a little which is why there is no picture.

Thai food at home


Adam made Thai (style) food at home. I could not believe all the effort he put into it. He made the broth, noodles, fish and veggie fixings all separately and we put it together at the table. It was hearty yet light and I love the spritz of lime. Not sure how authentic it is but it sure was delicious!

Dinner at Marg's

Margaret invited me over to dinner and she made risotto and Ben made the shrimp. I was so impressed with both of their dishes. If it was iron chef I would have to declare a tie.

Casual Dinner

We didn't feel like making a big dinner so we put together a dinner of fresh baguette, brie, dates, fresh figs and almonds. We added some wine to make it classy.
