friends & food in the sunshine


Yesterday I went out for dinner with one of my best friends from college. We barely see each other any more, but when we get together it's like nothing has changed between us. I think that's the meaning of true friendship - it lasts the test of time. We met in town (after I caught the bus all by myself - another little mile-stone achieved!) and then tottered off to Pizza Express for some lunch. Unfortunately we had a £10 off when you spend £40 - that clearly meant that we just <u>had</u> to go for three courses. Ooops. Like a complete ditz I only remembered to take pictures of my main course - that's surely enough food porn for one post though, right? To start I had the scrumptious dough balls with garlic butter, #uhhmazing. Then this glorious beast of a pizza is their Pollo Ad Astra Leggera pizza which has a super thin base and a hole in the middle filled with salad - all around 500 calories, talk about guilt free. But... then the guilt came. I was forced to have the most divine Chocolate Glory icecream filled with vanilla icecream, fudgy (I'm already salivating) chocolate sauce and pieces of chocolate fudge cake; I don't think that was quite so under 500 calories...

We were also meant to go and see 'The Fault in our Stars', but because of all our shopping, eating and talking we missed it. Whoops... All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable day with some fabulous company and food.
