    Going out tonight to have a nice steak at a new Steakhouse in town. Then stroll down the hill to see some live music be played in the venue I got married in.

    No child to look after tonight so a nice full night sleep 🤨

    Tomorrow hosting two friends and going to make a Beef Wellington for the first time, excited to do that.

      Goddamn I am so jealous of people who live in places where there are things like restaurants and music and friends. You’re very lucky, never forget it!

        Haha, well it’s cultivated over years. I don’t think I could live anywhere that didn’t have some form of decent restaurant options and people I could occasionally subject to my imitation of good cooking. As for music, I’m not like the headbanging rock live music type, but a casual evening listening to Hans Zimmer? That’s a music event for me.

        You must have chosen to live out in the sticks if that isn’t a little bit of an option?

          Yeah, tried bringing my other half into civilization but he got homesick for his middle-of-nowhere upbringing so here we are with bugger all going on. I recently travelled 3 and a half hours each way by bus to go to an hour long comedy show with friends in our nearest city.

          Note to self: cheer up it’s Friday, save this moan for the next Thursday thread, at least you’re near the sea

            Haha. Gotta do what you gotta do I guess.

            I’ll steer clear of the nearby coast at this time of year. It’s too crowded, too hot, and there’s sand everywhere. Mostly I just hate the people.

            Wait a minute. You’re right! It’s Fridddaaaay! Woooooooooo

      You are far braver than I am, I am a pretty decent cook but I have never attempted a beef wellington. Given the weather we are having I would be more likely to portion the beef into steaks and cook them on the BBQ.

      Best of luck!

        Haha, the weather I hadn’t factored in until you just said it. I’m sure I’ll be fine. I’m-in-danger.gif

      best of luck with the Beef Welly! Let us know how it goes, I’m chomping at the bit to try it but not quite confident enough yet.
