A fine example of England's most noble breed...
We celebrated my darling husband's twenty-seventh birthday yesterday with bangers and mash, beer, banoffee pie, and other delicious mouth-watering goodies.
Yum yum yummy. He is such a star, isn't he?
Ok, I learned:
- Banoffee pie is not difficult to make.
- That a traditional English buffet item is cubes of cheese and pineapple on skewers stuck in a baked potato with foil on it. It looks like a hedgehog. Hmmmm.
- That homemade apple cider is way better than the packet.
- That Mark WILL NOT let Christmas steal his birthday thunder.
- That Mark has really rubbed off on me over the last five years. I can name quite a few Brit pop bands and classic hits and we are making the same jokes WAY more often.
Onto the next exciting order of business - Montreal this weekend, as we have postponed our trip to visit the Murphy's in Raleigh...sniff, sniff. Then, home to exams.
Time is FLYING!

re your traditional english buffet. I believe that the traditional partypiece is in fact hedgehogs on cocktail sticks stuck into either a whole cheese or a whole pineapple (it's a seasonal thing don'tchaknow.)
