Last night the hubby and I went to a dinner party at our friends Jeff and Alaina's house.
Jeff made some awesome buffalo and honey garlic chicken wings for an appetizer.
They were served with some veggies and dip.
We enjoyed some bevvies throughout the evening ...
And a beautifully presented main course of slow-cooked lamb shanks, Yorkshire pudding, a duo of mashed potatoes (sweet and white), veggies and a flavourful gravy.
Dessert was peach crumble a la mode.
We had such a wonderful evening with our good friends! We got home late, but luckily we didn't have to work today because it is a provincial holiday - Family Day.
The hubby and I spent the day running errands and lounging around at home.
These were my eats for the day:
Organic Pink Grapefruit |
Vegan Overnight Oat Parfait |
French Onion Soup |
Mary's Crackers with Chipotle Hummus and 1 Laughing Cow Cheese |
Sweet Potato and Bean Burritos |
Did you work today (Monday)? If not, how did you spend the day?

Yummm I grew up on yorkshire pudding, love that stuff.
I got a double workout in. 3 mile walk with my little guy and 2:5 miles on the treadmill
Today was glorious! I finally watched last week's Bachelor episode!!
I should have worked out but I was very busy lounging on the couch:)
I am useless on a long weekend.
I think I need to take my left over sweet potato taco filling and make some of your burritos!
Unfortunately today was not a stat in BC... just another thing I miss about living in Alberta I guess!!
Oh yum! That all looks so good! I spent the day with my son and he started walking not too long ago but was just taking a few steps every so often. But tonight he was walking across rooms and walking all over so I guess he is officially a walker! Good times! :)
Yup..I had to work today...here in BC we don't get a holiday today... not fair.
That parfait looks so professional!
Yea, I'll buy that one. Ya know just to take it off your hands ;)
I did have school on presidents day, so I guess it was "just another day at the office"
i trained a load of clients but i would have preferred eating your delicious food
from your last post..i did NOT know this:"Did you know that Oreos and Ritz crackers are vegan!!?? I didn't eat either of these, but it was interesting to find this out"---wow, no I didnt..great info. Super shocked on the oreos. But ill take it :)
Love the peach a la mode pic...mmmm, goood!!!!

Mmm...the sweet potato and bean burritos look awesome! I did work yesterday but it was a slower day, which was nice!
I still can't get over all the fun dinner parties you host/attend. My friends and I are not that sophisticated, haha. Everything looks delish!
You have the most delicious dinner parties!
i was home today with my niece and nephew who are on winter break from school, we watched TV, ate pizza and enjoyed the day :-)
Apparantely Canadians have the best dinner parties. That is what I've learned from reading your blog.
