On the 17th my husband and I was married for 9 years.
We didn't plan anything as next year is the first decade celebration and we're in the middle of renovating here.
I decided to make him a very nice dinner as his love is definitely influenced by what goes in his stomach
I made his favourites
- fresh spinach cooked and dressed with gorgonzola and sliced boiled eggs
- endive (boiled) dressed in a jacket of ham and then topped with a white cheese/ham sauce, crumbs and old cheese and in the oven
- oxtail stew with brown button mushrooms
- mixed chopped baby lettuces (don't know their English names but more than just butter and ice) with balsamic/garlic vinaigrette and chopped baby radish
He didn't expect it an dived into the dinner and luckily I didn't make any starter and only bought a Ola Viennetta ice for dessert.
Husband came home with this beautiful large bouquet with lilies(5 different ones), which are my favourite and was in my wedding bouquet and and 2 poppy seed things (I adore poppies). The special thing was also the agapanthus which is called here in The Netherlands South African Lily ooooooooooh I had to cry! A pity the photo isn't that good.
Oh and I'll show you my WIP crochet blanket I'm making for baby nr.3. I've decided to add 10 more blocks, 5 on each sides before bordering it and adding picots
