Mother's Day

Mother's Day today, Mike and Jamie took me and Mike's Mum out for a lovely meal at The Bell Hotel in Winslow, which did as it always does an excellent carvery.  Jamie and Mike had the Tomato and Basil soup as their starter which when I had a little taste was lovely, Vera and I had melon.

There was a choice of Gammon, Turkey or Beef and lots of roast potatoes, the meat and roasties were yummy and Mike and Jamie said the cheesy potato gratin was lovely too.  The gravy was excellent lovely, thick and rich.  Deserts were lovely too Jamie and I had the fudge cake, which was remarkably light.

Coffee was served in the lounge area and Jamie did the honours pouring our coffees and then had his first cup of coffee himself (very weak) which he really enjoyed.  Although not likely to be encouraged too often - don't want him being hyper and running around like the furry creature in the film Over  the Edge!!

As always at The Bell the Mums were given a gift, this time it was a pansy in a bag, I got a lovely deep purple one, whose leaves looked like velvet, it will look nice in a pot in the garden.
