T is for stupendo

 HappyT Day Ladies, the weeks really do pass quickly, last Thursday was our youngest GSs fifth birthday, we had booked the ferry to go over but yet again we had to cancel so we managed to FaceTime while he opened his presents before school. Apparently he was awake very early so we were all chatting at 6am Uk time!

He had a beach party, he was super excited Saturday morning and said it was his Special Day.  They hired a beach hut to store the food although they were disappointed that it was quite basic, some sell for extortionate prices, we saw one for £50,000!

Our meal on Friday, Menu Del Dia on the Marina

We were the first to arrive, as you can see all spaced out and we had nearly finished our main course by the time other people arrived.

It’s unbelievable how they can make any money at the price, €11 each.

I had a Mixed salad to start, DH had a Murcian Salad, which is tinned tomatoes with half a hard boiled egg and olives, he loves it, we also had delicious fresh bread with alioil, (garlic Mayo), homemade!

I then had the crab with a kind of coleslaw, DH had baked Brie with Tomatoe jam, forgot to take the photos but they were both delicious.

Our main course! I had the fish dish, Hake, Salmon, Pau, not sure what that is but it was tasty, a couple of clams all in a Mariners sauce, 

DH had the pork knuckle, he said it was delicious, he always has a different dish to me just in case I don't like what I've ordered, what a thoughtful  husband he is!!

I chose Ice cream thinking it would be refreshing, until I saw the two slices!!!! My DH had to eat one of them to help me out, we are loathe to leave anything as they ask if everything was ok!

Strawberry cheesecake for my DH, he always chooses cheesecake

My drink for this weeks T party, As we paid the bill the waiter came out with two shots of Baileys, I did have a couple of sips,  my DH doesn't drink or like Baileys.

By this time I was fit to burst as you can imagine, the portions never look massive but by the time I've had the starter I'm struggling. We more or less staggered back to the car, thankfully we had already finished our walk and didn't have far to go back to the car

Every time we pass this clothes shop I have to smile at this dress, I'm not sure who they think will be buying it as in the winter it's mainly seniors, my DIL suggest I buy it for a Lockdown party although it is our Golden wedding next month, LOL

Not sure what my DH would say if I came out wearing it though!!

Hope everyone had a good week, we keep having a little rain although the days are warm enough for me to break out my crop trousers and put away my sweaters!! Keep Safe Ladies
