The One About my Best Friends 30th...

My best friend S turned 30 at the end of September, and even though she and her husband live in London they came up for the weekend and we all went for Sunday lunch with her family, in a lovely local pub in Plumley, called The Golden Pheasant.  It was a set price for a three course meal which was fab!  We got to catch up with S's parents and her brother & sister-in-las and her little niece F who I haven't seen since she was about 6 weeks old!  She is now nearly three I think.

I had leek and potato soup to start which was really yummy, and filling too :) then a carvery for the main course, which after the soup I had trouble finishing!  I managed to find room for my dessert of chocolate fudge cake with ice-cream though!

After dinner a cake was brought out that had been made specially for S's birthday in London, and brought up by her husband for the day.  After the huge three course meal we'd had no-one could fit the cake in, so we all took a piece home.

Even though it was the last weekend in September it was a lovely day so we all went and sat outside, so that F could have a run around, and we had some photos.  IT was incredibly stifling in the pub so it was good to get out into the fresh air.

Of course I had a picture done with S and her birthday balloon, and my bump, where I was 21 weeks gone at the time.
