A fun Sunday lunch

[london1967]

Sunday was spent cooking, eating, drinking, chatting and laughing. 
Gary & Ron, Sam (a former colleague of mine), and Wills (aka williamthebruce) came round for lunch.
The menu was:
- tomato and onion tarts
- sweetcorn fritters with grilled pancetta and rocket
- Italian meatballs with peperonata and minty green been salad served with homemade focaccia
- creamy apple pie
- red fruit salad

Adrian and I shared the cooking; I must say that Adrian's creamy apple pie was to die for!!
Unfortunately Sam had to leave soon after eating as he was going to trapeze rehearsals: oh to be 26 again, sweet, slim and supple!! (Not that I never did trapezing when I was young, of course!!)

And here is the table set in green and blue by my talented and gorgeous husband!


Unfortunately some time during lunch, Adrian noticed that the tooth that had been hurting on and off for weeks and had been temporarily patched by the dentist (root canal was due on Thu week), has disappeared! He swallowed it! Despite that, he - and we all - had a great time.

I'm going to come and eat at your house! That sounds absolutely delicious, (except for the tooth course.) and the table looks beautiful. With me, however, one has to limit the number of breakable items within my sphere of clumsiness. :)

Oh yes please do! You must visit some time.
Well every now and then we break things too - I am rather clumsy myself.

Oh, I cannot WAIT to come and dine with you and Adrian! I LOVE food.... (as you can probably tell!)

Your menus / food always sounds SOOO delicious - how DO you do it?

And poor Adrian... hope his tooth gets better.

We love people who love their food!!
The Italian Mam(m)a in me always wants to feed people! LOL!

Oh yes, you'll have to come and dine with us! (hopefully you won't be disappointed)

...but does the Italian Mam(m)a in you want to feed people anything else other than food? LOL

I mean - you DID tell me that you're shy, but the clothes come off at the drop of a hat! LOL

Maybe, but that would put people off their food!! LOL!
