Hello Hello to all you wonderful Hivians and especially Silver Bloggers
First things first, if you celebrate Christmas then Merry Christmas to you!
I am all set, I realised that we had no Christmas Crackers left so this morning was a mad dash between supermarkets. Finally our local Tesco Express came up trumps!
We should have got some on Thursday when we were out and about.
Most of the Christmas shopping was done on Thursday after a festive lunch.
I was dying for a Christmas pint, so we compromised and dived into the local Spoons for lunch and noticed there was a Christmas menu.
I don't usually shill Wetherspoons but the two dishes we had were outrageously tasted for pub food and including a strong pint of lager were a steal at £11.67 each
Brie & Bacon burger.
2 3oz beef patties, Brie, maple cured bacon, cranberry sauce topped with 2 pigs in blankets and chips.
Just look at the way the brie melted....
Chicken & Stuffing burger
Grilled chicken breast, maple cured bacon, pork apricot and cranberry stuffing, cranberry sauce topped with 2 pigs in blankets and chips.
The cranberry sauce was fluffing tasty as well and I did love the whole cranberries in it!
The stuffing though, that was delicious!
We tried to go halfers and have half of each burger!
I am partial to a Stella and Leffe and as it does not matter what drink you have it is the same price, that was the two drinks for the two meals. Coffee for Mrs T was extra.
To top it off we had the sticky toffee pudding!
The Christmas menu runs until December 31st and Mrs T loved it so much she wants to go back after Christmas!
That was that and I have to say that is was a worthwhile visit!
We did manage to get all the Christmas shopping done as well, and today Mrs T took great delight in saying she told me to get Chrstmas crackers when we were out and about but stubborn me said oh fluff it we will get them later!
Was tempted to get some things I saw
This made me thing of all the @dreemport dreemers and their recent task
And then above all everyone ....
Thanks for visiting and I wish you all a terrific rest of your weekend.
I just want to thank you all for posting on Hive, and for engaging!
Reading comments and replying is what makes Hive fun in my mind.
So for all you engagers thank you.
If you celebrate it then enjoy your Christmas time!
