Wednesday Wine Time

Just a small pudding for one...

I was having such a good week, until Nick went out for a big client lunch and got the taste for wine. Plans for a client dinner went out the window when the client called in with a sick bug, and so, with Nick stressing his enthusiasm to find somewhere that would serve him a lovely bottle of wine and maybe some French food, I abandoned all hope of being well behaved, and signed up for a steak.
            In classic mid-week form, work started to really pick up for Nick just as the worst of mine had been cleared away, so I made my way over to the cheap-cheap French place that came highly recommended from Liv and Flash, to nab a table and set up shop while waiting for him to escape from work.
            He ended up being about a hour later than me, so by the time he arrived I was already well on my way through a glass of wine and a plate of garlic bread. I was also fully engrossed in my book and slightly grumpy when he interrupted my reading.
            Still, it was just a quick dinner (after the hour build up) of steak and veggies, followed by the world’s biggest baked Alaska and giant profiterole that would didn’t even make a dent in, and then it was home time. Not brilliant behaviour for mid-week, but that’s another place off the list, and I’m not exactly going to complain about having to eat steak and drink wine, am I?
