Celebrating B's 60th birthday (it was yesterday) with bubbly in some of the glasses that have featured in my rainbow month.
Bank holiday but busy - tidied and cleaned the kitchen while Dave hoovered and tackled the bathroom. I nipped out on the bike to get refills for shower gel etc and pick up top-up shopping before rather too much for lunch - finishing off random bread, Lithuanian fish and salad.
Prepared a relatively elaborate recipe from Falastin - spicy tomato and prawn stew with coriander pesto - and played melodeon.
T and B arrived at 7.30 and we opened the champagne and gave him his presents - chocolates, wine and a pretty carafe with hares on it. The stew was delicious and followed by Dan's homemade courgette cake and cheese. All stuffed now.
