Well, it is now coming to the end of my last free weekend before my next study term starts. Overall, a good weekend - Friday night, Shaun and I walked down to our local shops to grab some cheap takeaway and a few beers for dinner and just chilled out at home. On Saturday, we did the usual cleaning, washing, shopping routine and then went over to our friends' house for dinner. We have known Kath and Paul for nearly two years now, and they have certainly become good mates of ours. Kath made a delicious creamy mushroom pasta for dinner and we brought over a fresh green salad. We had a few drinks and just spent the night catching up and listening to music. Today has been a pretty lazy Sunday, and we spent a lot of time eating! Do you ever just have those days when you are always feeling hungry? Well, today was like that for me. We started the morning with coffees and breakfast quinoa - my new fave breaky dish. You cook the quinoa in coconut milk with a bit of sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Then you add fresh fruit, toasted nuts and a drizzle of honey - delicious!! We ate leftover takeaway for lunch - I had ayam goreng (a Malay chicken dish) and Prawn had stir-fried veggies with rice. For afternoon tea, Shaun made his famous homemade scones with fresh cream and jam. We are currently making dinner - chickpea masala with rice and coconut naan breads. Can you tell that I love cooking and eating?!? We may even make an orange cake for dessert! Hope you all had enjoyable weekends, too.
