It's December everybody! We're already five days into our Advent Calendar, and the countdown to Christmas is well and truly on - hurrah! I'm particularly over excited that on Tuesday we are going to a local Christmas market with carols and mulled wine, which should be a lovely start to the season. And then on Friday, we're both out with friends - me for a Christmassy afternoon tea, D to drink copious amounts of beer. Elsewhere, our meal plan looks like this:
Monday: Fast Day #1 and we're having fishcakes and salad
Tuesday: Out for mulled wine and mince pies - but we have a stash of M&S nibbles in the fridge if we want something when we get back
Wednesday: Fast Day #2 - sooooooooup.
Thursday: Mussel paella
Saturday: Spaghetti carbonara
Sunday: Lamb of some description with mashed potatoes and garlicky mushrooms (if you've seen my Paris post, you may recognise this as a re-creation of my favourite dish of the trip, I just hope that I can get it to taste half as good as it did in Cinq Mars!)
As always, happy cooking and eating this week les touts.
I'm glad you can still look forward to something on your fast days! Bonne chance!!
