What a weekend

Okay, finished the course on Friday and had drinkies with classmates before going to movies with Peter and the Duncans. Then on Sat morning went up to the Kauri Gumstore cafe to show Peter where it is, and we had a great time on a crisp sunny winter morning enjoying the ambience of this place.
Lovely Louise Cake and latte's and hot chocolate.
Then shopping at Pak n Save and lunch at Catherine Gardner's place with her sister, Anne, up from Oamaru. We sampled her new sandwich maker and enjoyed the excitement of eating to the sound of two smoke alarms simultaneously going off. Hee hee.
THen an evening dinner party at my home, which Peter was responsible for cooking for, and we all dressed as paupers, (except those who thought they were paupers dressing up!) and enjoyed French Onion soup, croutons, followed by beef and olive casserole and mashed potatoes and mashed parsnips and carrots, and then a huge steaming pudding with custard. YUM.
The fire was going, the candles all lit the place in a serene light, and the laughter barely stopped.

Hi Jen
Looks like you had a lot of fun. Please will you send me your correct email address, as I seem to have mislaid it.
Loads of hugs xxx
