We'd arranged for Urszula and Percy to come for pizza on Friday night. Then we decided to invite James & Caroline Steel who live further up the road. Later, we added Dany to the guest list. Marion decided she would make her own pizzas, rather than serve M&S ones. I suggested buying pizza bases and went to Tesco and got some. She made a half-size test pizza last night and we agreed the Tesco base was rubbish. Nothing for it but to make our own. This morning we got out the bread making machine and set it to work to make some bread dough and made another small test pizza with home-made sauce. It was brilliant!
Our quiet evening had turned into a dinner for seven. I don't know how she did it but Marion managed to serve three huge pizzas straight out the oven all at the same time. Everyone was most impressed. For dessert we had Xmas cake with strawberries and cream. They must have really enjoyed themselves because they didn't go home until one o'clock in the morning. That's why I am writing this at 2 a.m.
Goodnight all.
