Day - 13

Saturday was our wedding anniversary. We left the kids with my sister in law and then on to my mother in law for the night, so we were free from the afternoon until Sunday morning.
We went out from lunch time and I had lunch in a pub down in the country waiting for my husband to collect his new toy – a second hand Range Rover.
I had to wait quite a while, so from planning to just have a main meal, I ended up ordering dessert and a huge pot of tea as well to avoid the questioning from the waitress.

I didn’t finish all the food I ordered. From the looks I got from the staff I must be strange for not finishing my meals.
The food was good (except for the mash of orangey colour stuff that tasted awful, I couldn’t even make out what it really was, so I left it be) but I just couldn’t bring myself to eat all the chips and dessert in one sitting. I’d feel like I’m killing myself :-D

We went out again in the evening for dinner in a Lebanese restaurant. That was the first time we tried that restaurant or food from that part of the world. My starter was deep fried fillo pastries with spinach filling, followed by a main course of Lamb meatballs in tomato sauce served with fragrant rice (it must be cooked in ghee because it was so tasty by itself but the waitress didn’t really know when I asked). We had some red wine as well which was very nice (it was Lebanese wine which I had never tasted before, it’s worth looking out for in the future) but we couldn’t finish it (I usually drink only a glass every time we are having wine) so we asked to take the half bottle home.
From dinner we went to see a film. Overall we had a good night and I really enjoyed it.
