Stew's Birthday

Okay it's not really a food post, but we had 18 for dinner and I had work that day so it was an exercise in organisation and relaxation. We shifted the outside table in , covered everything in white cloths and had the simplest meal - a whole fillet on the barbeque, caesar salad, potatoes dauphinoise and a huge chocolate log and apple strudel to finish.

 

Oliver arrived from Wellington
 The Howick chapter pulled funny faces....


 My brother Craig was in town unexpectedly
 Richard enjoyed the beers and food as usual
 Big McWatson got heavy with the photographer,
 Ann captured some of the food (for once it wasn't all eaten before we remembered to take pics.)
 Stew tried really hard to enjoy himself
 The olds made it too...
and as usual, everyone stood in the kitchen while I tried to cook. Pete!
