Fathers Day 2011

Happy Fathers Day to all the fathers out there. I did not expect to be involved in a Fathers Day celebration but it was a spontaneous invite from EF and I said yes. So we gathered together for lunch.

It was a casual affair with food contributions by all and what a lovely afternoon we had. I brought some cheese, EF bought some more cheese, made the mini quiche and there was BBQ pork too. PF made some lovely salads (Crispy noodle Asian style salad and Roast pumpkin with feta, tomato and pine nuts).

NF (the only father in the group) was busily opening all his gifts and we even found time to play a game of the Tipayatung board game. EF was the eventual winner but we had fun playing!

Dessert was a resounding success. We had buttermilk panna cotta with passionfruit glaze. What a lovely end to a very filling lunch. Dessert was courtesy of CM (Doobie).
