Since last Sun, I had 2 more gatherings with my friends at their homes.
On Wed evening after work, we left the office together and bought some grocery from the supermarket before heading for our friend, Fion's place. She cooked for us a nice dish of Japanese pasta with colour bell peppers, cheese sausages. There were also healthy salad, red wine, honey Japanese tea and strawberries with melted chocolate. Her living room has a Christmas tree to add to the holiday mood.
I went to another girlfriend, FR's place on Thurs and tried some of the wasabi soba she, her hubby and MIL had earlier. Yummy! She had prepared the ingredients for ink squid pasta in nice little bowls. It looked like some scene in a cooking TV programme. She also let me tried her kombucha which tasted like apple cider vinegar and in the jar it looks like some human tissue. I like the dragonfruit enzymes that she has made - tasted like some sweet honey alcohol drink.
Her ink squid pasta was delicious - the squid, anchovy, sun dried tomato and tomato paste give a nice fragance and sour taste. I like the combination even though some of our friends find it fishy or sourish. We also had some bread and chicken and lemon honey drink to accompany the main dish. She and her hubby also made for Bam's sweetie a light cheesy macaroni.
We also helped her to make some gingerbread men which turned out a bit burnt at the edges but it was fun to cut out the shapes and break the arms and legs of the gingerbread men to taste them :)
I'm also impressed that FR's nice hubby was washing the dishes after we finished the meal. I think it's important for husband to share household chores with the wife especially when both are working. It's a good way to bond too :)
