New Years Day 2012

It's now Tuesday and we have been neglecting the blog. I suggested to Jo that we make it a weekly round-up of our meals but she was adamant that wasn't going to happen.....foodandbiscuits is a daily blog and that is what it will continue to be! The boss has spoken so it's time to get us up to date!

On New Years Day we woke up with no hangovers after our very tame but very enjoyable New Years Eve. We pottered about and watched movies....I Love You Man followed by the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo at the flicks followed by The Beginners; all good movies!!!

It was my turn in the kitchen, and after all the food over the festive period I wanted to keep it simple with turkey kebabs, cous cous and a simple salad....just the ticket!

Saturday - Hangovers, Anniversaries & Kebabs - Joe

I had a great time at the old boys lunch, and there will be a post about that soon! I woke up with a hangover today, but I have definitely had worse. It was great to see mum and old friends (including the Demon Headmaster) but I was keen to get back to Leeds to hang out with Jo.

We got engaged this time last year, and I can't wait to be married - the big day is 29th September 2012 in Edinburgh - Jo's home town. We got engaged in Gisborough Hall.  I did pretty well and Jo had no idea that I was proposing - she was too busy enjoying the suite and the afternoon tea!  It was an awesome night and roll on the next 10 months!

After a couple of drinks at the Roundhay Fox headed home for dinner of Kebabs!! - made my moi; and very nice they were too. Jo thinks she will will watching x-factor but it will soon be going off for Senna!!
