Better planning this time and put the frozen pastry out to defrost early morning. Then got on my bike and went to Tesco to buy chicken breast for my Chicken and Leek pie and cooking apples for Apple Pie.
I need total concentration at the moment so decided to have everything completed before The Consort arrived home from work so started at 4pm. It all went pretty well apart from the sauce not thickening very well but my timing is not good and it was all ready to serve up far too early. So had to keep everything hot until she arrived home at 5:30pm.
I've had a complaint from one of our Colonies that my presentation needs to be improved but I haven't taken this criticism to heart. However, I have decided to take moderate revenge by publishing an incriminating picture of an act of vandalism that would otherwise have remained unpublished !
You may not have taken my presentation comment to heart, but you have definitely taken it on board. Food looking stunning!! And impressive improvisation. Well, as for publishing the pic of our naughty mutt destroying the garden in Wilderness....I'll excuse you, in the birthday spirit! Have a great day :)
