Simple dinner with a friend tonight
My ex-flatmate is coming to dinner tonight.
My ex-flatmate is a chef. I should therefore probably be all stressed out and produce a repeat performance of our recent overcomplicated dinnerparty that was not particularly successful taste-wise.
Maybe I should worry, but I don't. You see, I lived with that man for two and a half years and I know what he likes, so it's going to be easy:
- a selection of Italian hams;
- my Thai beef salad;
- and I wanted to make a trifle (my ex-flatmate favourite dessert) but last night when I shopped for tonight's dinner party I felt a bit intimidated by a Sherry trifle recipe listing fifteen different ingredients (two of which I could not find). So there will be a Tesco Finest Raspberry & Choc Truffle.
I am sure anything will be appreciated; after all, my ex-flatmate cooks for a living, so probably the last thing he wants to do when he gets home is prepare a meal.
It's as if somebody who builds websites for a living spent most of their spare time on the web updating their weblog.
Oh wait. Wrong comparison, I guess.
