Cut glass wine glass. Tut.
Wine glasses should be plain.
Pretty, but doesn't look very filling!

The Strongbow CollectionOriginally posted by hyperD View PostGot it about 10 years ago, ordered it from William Bartlett. Ex-wife's insistence, ofc!
I don't mean to be rude , but their furniture is f**king hideous and probably expensive.
I'd add a really good link to this thread normally, but in truth the two suppliers I used to use look to have gone bankrupt! So more fool me!

Very pretty; unfortunately I'm certain it looks much better than it tastes. Bits of veg on a plate...

Where did you buy it?

A little light dinner
Clearing out the fridge: a quick late home-made meal of prosciutto wrapped asparagus fried in unsalted butter with lightly grilled cherry tomatoes with virgin olive oil and a scattering of herbs de Provence, shaved parmesan, shiitake mushrooms, fried brown bread flavoured with garlic and thyme and a shot glass of sauce aux Câpres to dip into to.
Dessert: home-made rum and date bon bons (already made).
All made in 20 mins!
