MOI thought it was time to have a smart dinner party. Having come to enjoy the company of Paul and Alan, it seemed like a clever bonding experience...Gave plenty of notice to, and hoped that it would be an eventful evening...
With pot and kettle sorted out, all that was required was a trip to market to get the fixing for meal planned. One so much wanted to impress invited guests.
Being the world traveller, the old geezer thought to serve up clever finger food. SPAM, sliced and diced up on crackers. There was also egg salad on crackers. Dressed up with olives. Not one to spare expense, the old geezer had lovely Havarti cheese as well. Quite grand. So Continental...
The salad was a pure delight to the eye. There were tomatoes, radishes and 3 different colours of bell peppers. Tossed and allowing for guests to dress as they wished.
Main course was bangers and mash. Yummy. Very British.
Afters was a creation from heaven. Would have wished for the above, since was really putting on the dog, but me guests had to settle for a Strawberry and Cream Cake.
The evening was ended with watching a British film.
What made the evening a huge hit was the very enjoyable company. Sitting at table and making an event of the meal. Without the telly or a mad dash to finish meal.
MOI sort of picked, but could see that Paul and Alan tucked into their meal with delight. Lovely to see so much joy at eating.
