Saturday 14 July 2012
A friend of David's rang us about 7pm on Sunday evening and asked did we want tickets to Snow Patrol in the Phoenix Park.
So we jumped at the chance, nipped around to Lucan to collect the tickets and headed to the Park.
I knew Katie was going to the concert so I rang her on the way to arrange to meet up there.
She texted me about two minutes later to say that it was really muddy and that she hoped we were wearing wellies.
I don't own a pair of wellies but luckily we both had thrown our hiking boots on.
Yes it was very muddy!
The hiking boots were "okay" but I would have liked wellies.
All in all a good concert.
But I think we were a little sober for it compared to all of the other concert goers....
Steak night!
Oh yeah baby! :-)
In advance, I have to apologise about the photos in this blog post.
I have been trying for the last half hour but I simply cannot get them to save correctly so unfortunatly they are showing upside down or side view etc.
Again, I do apologise - if you have an ipad you can just rotate the tablet, but if you are viewing on a laptop you can't really do that. And you certainly can't do it if you have a pc.
At the moment we have a friend of ours (Ollie) staying with us. Ollie lives in Thailand and is home in Ireland approx once a year or so.
He is an ideal houseguest because he makes the most amazing (hot!) curries which is a real treat.
One thing Ollie can't get over in Thailand is steak and he had a real hankering for one while in Ireland. David and I used to regularly do steak on a Saturday night, so it was as good an excuse as any to have a Super Saturday Steak night as we like to call 'em :-)
I went to Superquinn this morning to get the steak and supplies.
The butcher was very helpful in advising me on the cut and how to cook.
I was querying with him if I should get them butterflied but he was saying with these as they were quite large but flat I should be okay and would not need that.
I bought some nice prepared roast veg but added in some extra red onion.
I love any opportunity to use my steak knives! I got these years ago in TK Maxx.
Dessert!
Red wine and dark chocolate! Mmmm.
Oh and of course there were Caiproskas! We enjoyed them as a pre-dinner cocktail.
After all that I was too occupied with serving up, and would you believe I forgot to take photos of the finished product!!!! But rest assured it was very VERY TASTY!!
Clean plates and full bellies all round!
