http://drewandjengotolondon.com/2009/08/first-dinner-party/#commentsMon, 24 Aug 2009 08:09:45 +0000http://www.drewandjengotolondon.com/?p=1350My mom always wanted to know what I had for dinner. Maybe that’s why I feel so compelled to tell you all the time. Tonight we did something really special; we invited our friend Janita over and we ate at the table. I know, I know… Wow.
I can’t believe we actually set the table. I made this kick ash vegan pasta; which was somehow a mess before I could get a photo… We were hungry, alright?
For dessert we were very spoiled! I made vegan cakes that we cut open and drizzled with Elsa’s beautiful cherry jam.
We topped the first layer with summer berries and home whipped cream.
I am stuffed.

I’ve met some saucy British women who have given me the confidence to say what I think in a more direct manner (I am taking baby steps). They’ve taught me to say things like, “that’s absolutely unacceptable” and “oh, no that won’t do at all” with a confident smile. I’ve felt a little taller. I even got a free lunch.
These training sessions have come in handy lately. Take this week’s test, for example.
This is the scaffolding a work crew has erected above our flat, apparently to fix a leaky roof issue.
This is the window in our bedroom that faces East.
What you can’t see in these photos is the view said work crew would have into my bedroom and bathroom at the time of day I am most likely to be naked in my flat.
Thank goodness I knew just what to say, and had practiced my sternest tone, when I rang up the Estate Manager.
