Chocolate, ginger, cream, and caramel

Oh my goodness, what a feast! This was pudding at our book group meeting this evening. It followed some amazing home-made curries: lamb; spinach and cheese; aubergine and chick pea; and prawn. Even the breads were cooked by our talented hostess.

We were discussing The children act by Ian McEwan (loved by three of us, liked by the other two), although I have to say that I was rather more interested in the fabulous food than our reading.

Exercise today: weights, sit-ups and stretches, walk to work and walk home again with stop off at R's house for our book group meeting (2 hours).
