Leaving the family hordes at home, Jan and I went to Gill and Bryan's for a birthday party last night. With the exception of one notable individual, whose name I even have difficulty typing, it was full of our favourite people. A really nice evening with good food. Thanks guys.

Tim cooked lunch on the barbecue today (well, to be fair Jan cooked everything but the meat and, to be even fairer, I de-boned one of the legs, and carved the meat) consisting of two de-boned legs of lamb, marinated in garlic, orange zest, cayenne pepper, oregano, orange marmalade and coca cola. Strange but true. I can't help but mention the endive with a rocquefort sauce, small roast jacket potatoes and mushrooms. A banana fudge pudding brought up the rear. A hearty winter meal in the middle of summer. Just excellent. All washed down with Vermentino from the village and a gris from Domaine de Grand Chemin.
