It feels like it's all about Baby McBerry at the moment. Let's take a minute and see what else is going on in the world of J and B!
Last weekend, we celebrated B's birthday with his parents and Heidi and Toby. B's mum, Marilyn, prepared a mouthwatering three course meal, complete with Champagne and Chambord (I even had a little taste!).
Vegetarian option: No Prawns
Vegetarian option: Arancini (similar recipe) instead of lamb
It was an amazing meal - we felt truly spoilt!
After, we enjoyed a cup of tea with carrot cake! Marilyn is an amazing cake decorator - I can do the baking, but I'm not very skilled in the decoration department. We had a little tutorial where she taught me the tricks of the trade. I am so pleased with how it turned out!
For B's actual birthday, I wanted to celebrate in the best way I knew how! Presents! I had loads of great ideas, but the unpredictable nature of the next month or two left me with few options. I decided to go for some good ol' gifts I knew he would like.
Gifts included a garden tool set, liquid smoke, a Michael Kors reversible belt and a Dents wallet. Success? I think so.
In the evening, we used our June date night gift from our anniversary present! I had purchased £20 gift vouchers for Nando's, Pizza Express and Prezzo - the three restaurants in town in King's Lynn. The challenge: One evening, one course in each restaurant.
Starter: Dough Balls and a tomato cucumber salad from Pizza Express
Main: Half a Chicken and chips and a veggie bean burger with chips from Nandos.
Dessert: Honeycomb cheesecake with banana gelato and amaretti and banana gelato from Prezzo.
In case you missed it, here are the 1st Anniversary Paper gifts so far:
January: Tickets to the King's Lynn Comedy Club
February: B and B (Which didn't actually happen due to our sudden move!)
March: A Couples Massage at Knight's Hill Imagine Spa
April: £10 for a Fondue night in
May: £100 for the Neptune Inn in Hunstanton
June: £20 for Prezzo, Pizza Express and Nando's. One night, One course in each restaurant
Happy weekend, Everyone! Happy Birthday, B!
Happy weekend, Everyone! Happy Birthday, B!
