GIRLS NIGHT!

I had a few girls over for dinner and drinks tonight. Initially we were just going to have snacks but I was able to finish work early and headed to the shops to grab some groceries to make dinner.

Roast Chicken


Baby Cos, Asparagus and boiled Egg Salad


I made the dressing with the pan juices from the chicken and some mayonnaise.


Poh Chin brought us some Macarons from Jean Pierre Sancho for dessert.


Sarah and Fleurette made us Apple Martinis!

We went through three bags of microwave popcorn. And by 'we', I mean 'me'.

I made moussaka. It was frackin' awesome!

I wanted to make the bechamel myself but I didn't have any milk in the fridge so I used some cheesy bechamel from a jar.

I roasted some chicken breast the other night with lots of spicy spices. I don't usually eat chicken breast because you need to cook it just right or it's too dry. And even if you cook it just right, if you don't eat it immediately, it goes dry.

So, I usually roast chicken breast and shred it up for salads or sandwiches.

A healthy roll for lunch.

One of my most favourite things in the world.

Fish crackers.

Mum brought over a bag for me tonight. Some are hers that she made over ten years ago (you can keep them in storage for yonks!) and some are ones that she bought from someone who makes them.

Mum's taste better.

Dim Sum with a few girlfriends at Northbridge Chinese Restaurant.


Fresh tomato slices, bocconcini, salad leaves and a drizzle of Ollo olive oil.

Dinner was skipped in lieu of nibblies and drinks!
