A lazy day...

Today, yesterday and New Year's Day have all felt like Sundays - this really was a Sunday though...

A purple ball has appeared in front of our garden...

Hmmm...

Watched the New Year's Day Concert from Vienna two days late - and the Tivo had inexplicably cut off the last five minutes or so, meaning no "Radetsky March" - disappointing...

Late afternoon, to my mum's and then, at 5:30, out for an early dinner to Cibo, which was very nice...

Mum liked her ginger beer and lime...

My starter was focaccia with rocket, parmesan shavings and balsamic vinegar...

However, it was the size of an entire pizza!

I struggled through it...

Only after mum had failed to eat half her lasagne, were we made aware that she could have ordered a half portion...

So we were learning for the next time...

Anne's pate followed by pulled lamb with small ears pasta (orecchiette), a Southern Italy speciality, were both enjoyed without incident...

My main comprised a chicken escalope and a small portion of Spaghetti Pomodoro...

Consequently, no puddings enticed although coffees were enjoyed, mum opting instead for a cheeky wee hot chocolate with marshmallows......

Coffee and back to mum's to take her Xmas decorations down before heading home...

A good night...

Highlight of the Day : Italian meal...
