Six For Dinner

 

Yesterday was a gorgeous day, with blue skies and a few fluffy clouds.  Today we have overcast grey, verging on fog.

I’m glad the nice day was yesterday, as it was my birthday (they seem to come around too fast!).

Son organised a lovely roast dinner for me, and invited my brother and wife, my youngest son, and my granddaughter.  I enjoyed myself so much that I forgot to take any photos!

These are some of the clean dishes this morning, waiting to be put back into their respective cupboards.




Tomorrow we head into the Easter weekend, traditionally the last weekend to go to the beach and enjoy the end of summer.

I hope you all have a great weekend.  Stay safe 😊

Margaret.

    1. Just for you David :) We had: roast beef with gravy, baked potato, baked kumara, baked pumpkin, peas, and tomatoes followed by birthday cake (carrot cake). For drinks we had a choice of rose wine, fruit juice, lemonade, ginger beer, beer, and cider. The best part was I didn't have to do a thing!

  11. Yay, happy belated birthday! It sounds like you had a terrific time (and someone else did the cooking!) I hope you get a trek to the beach...toes in the sand, close your eyes, and enjoy every minute.
