163. Roast Chicken

Yesterday was Saturday. Herself and I had a good day, and this is how it went.

Coffee and papers for her. Lemon & Ginger tea and a guide to Rome for me (we're going! In a WEEK!) Croissants for both.

Walk in the park. The sun was shining and the blossom is on many of the trees. The dog was going extreeeeeeemely slowly so we sat on bench with our faces in the sun for a bit while she did her thing.

Went to the garden centre. Bought seeds and herbs in pots and lots of earth.

Ate delicious lunch.

Spent some time in the garden potting up.

Baked a lemon polenta cake.

The Parent arrived, we had roast chicken, roast potatoes and salad from the garden, followed by lemon polenta cake, creme fraiche and grapes bought by the Parent. Herself and I had some lovely red wine, the P had water. (She chooses water.) It's ALWAYS lovely to see the P. I'm biased, but she's fab.

Watched the last two episodes of Series 3 of Damages (see previous blog post).

Slept for 8 hours.

Sad and middle-aged? Maybe. But in terms of simple pleasures and battery recharging it can't be beat.

Happy Sunday.
