Friday night the husband and I went to our mate Emma's 50th birthday party at Little Nan's Cocktail Bar at a secret location in Greenwich. What a treat of a start for the weekend! I had a teapot of Peggy Mitchell: lime, campari, prosecco, sugar and mint leaves. Yum! We had cake, blasted some party poppers, talked utter rubbish and drank cocktails from deinty teacups. Bliss!
On Saturday, the sun delighted us with its presence after a rainy morning. Hurrah for the Spring! I went for lunch in Tooting Broadway with four other girls. Our friend Sarah is building a website dedicated to health food, and we were invited to test out the material. The food was absolutely sublime! It was all raw, and the menu consisted of filled avocados, courgette spaghetti with olives, semi-dried tomatoes and a little bit of goats cheese, and for dessert we had the most tasty key lime pie I have ever tasted in my entire life! Absolutely beautiful. I won't post photos here, as she'll be doing that herself once her site is up. But if you're on Instagram, you can take a peek: @waddayathink. It was a lovely, chilled afternoon, and the food and the company made me infinitely happier!
In the evening Dan and I met up with a group of close friends for food and cider in New Cross House. Mmmm. I had a pizza with choritzo and jalapeños, and forgot all about my resolve from only a few hours back to lead a healthier life..! But ho hum. While the food may have been bad for my ever expanding body, the evening with all its grease, booze and laughter was manna for the soul.
The plan was to de-tox this week after all the over indulgence since Friday night, but then I realised that we are going flying to Ireland to see the in-laws on Wednesday night. Phew... Oohh... Will I live through this?? Can't wait, though!
