.......on Wednesday we went by train to the Brisbane city to have lunch with Richard, Josephine and Colin at the Whistle Stop Bar.
On Good Friday we invited Norma and Joe for lunch and to discuss holiday plans.
Bill barbequed New Zealand Snapper, I stuffed it with asian style veggies and herbs. Joe and Norma are from NZ, so I thought they would like it.
This looks a mess but it tasted good. Greek salad, bean salad, pumpkin salad, Russian salad and a stuffed baked potato. The fish is hiding underneath.
I was too lazy to decorate eggs this year so we made do with a commercial variety, including NZ marshmellow chocolate eggs from Joe and Norma.
Oh wow would my grandfather have loved that snapper. Red snapper was his favorite. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fish dish - made my Good Friday attempt look darn right horrible. My invitation to the Bohlen fish feast must have got lost in the mail! Please in future phone me for your epicurean feasts. The post is NOT dependable!
ReplyDeleteAnd it was yummy.
ReplyDeleteYour beautiful fish dish on Good Friday made my attempts look darn horrible .
ReplyDeleteObviously my invitation got lost in the mail. Please next time phone!
I think maybe the two of you could make plenty of money out of cook books! I will nominate myself as the official taster! My fee will be negotiable!
My fish was out of a packet - supposedly "John Dory" fillets - more like cardboard shark!
Looks like you had a nice time (again, lol)
ReplyDeleteI bought eggs already colored. Since I have no children in the house anymore I am far to lazy too !
wow the salad looks so good and tempting hehe
ReplyDeletehappy easter diane

ReplyDeleteSharing food with friend is a great thing at any time, but you've outdone yourselves this Easter! I'm waiting to sneak in to the supermarket to buy some of those Lindt bunnies when they go on sale.....

Lauren and I went to the Lindt cafe while in Sydney...yuuummmmeeeee
ReplyDeleteAnd those dark lindt bunnies are just divine - and not too sweet....
As for the mobile blogspot - I have a relatively new phone and I can type in the URL and log in but only create a title - the cursor wont go to the text box....think its time to give up and get a laptop for travelling!
It's wonderful to have a lot of friends.
ReplyDeleteI'm gathering my group of friends in preparation for our retirement activities. After years of working, we are going to smell the roses. :)
