When on our trip to London a fortnight ago, the boyfriend and I got to experience the joy of Snogs. Hee. I love the pun. I got raspberries and little chocolate hearts; he got passionfruit with his raspberries. Yummy. Ta da:
Whilst away, I remembered to go into a supermarket in Chinatown to get dumpling skins and came home to make these babies. They were delicious (if we say so ourselves)! Ginger, soy and spring onion pork. Boyfriend loves dumplings, and we tagged his brother on Facebook to try and spread some friendly jealousy. Think it worked. :D
And then the other night, I made us a candlelit Sunday dinner. I'm just that kind of girl, y'see. (Also he totally spoils me and it's nice to give it back sometimes. Or to try, anyway.) All free food according to the Slimming World plan, only the gravy counted as a syn. Roast lamb, with roasted corn, broccoli and red onion, roast potatoes and carrot mash.
It was a success. A resounding success. The chocolate cake we made today was less of a success (nice with yoghurt and berries as a kind of black forest dessert, too chocolatey on its own somehow) - though a much nicer texture than the previous slimming world cakes we've attempted.
