So, the stew........well it wasn't tender enough in time, so we decided to leave it for tomorrow when it will be melt-in-the-mouth gorgeous.......and we headed out for dinner. Actually we voted...I thought it would be good to buy snacks and curl up with the fire on and watch Nanny Mcphee. Everyone else wanted to go to a restaurant.
So we went to Smittys. It was empty (thankfully). 3 old ladies sat at one table (one of whom had to go outside for a cigarette in the rain TWICE during her meal....how awful to be that addicted....or maybe it was just the stress of eating in the same room as us!
Sam was tired and not in the mood to wait for his dinner....we spent 20 minutes calming him with toys which he then threw everywhere. Once the food was there he then threw that everywhere...in fact the capet throughout the entire restaurant was COVERED in Sams food.......
Oh it was so much FUN!!! (not!)
Chris is dog sitting for a local family for a few weeks so on the way home we stopped off at their house to feed the dogs...poor things must be lonely so I think I will get them and bring them back here for a while and they can join me on my walks with Rosie and Amber.
Oh well one good thing is that I don't have to cook dinner for a couple of days as the stew will be for tomorrow and Tuesday now :) And the house smells gorgeous and Autumny!
