It all started so well.
I was up early, showered and dressed, straight to the kitchen to make chicken balls for the Lorraine Lea party.
I gathered my drinks, a glass, plate and cutlery, food covers and a table cover and arrived right on time for the party.
I was the first guest to arrive and eventually there were nine of us.
The weather was cool and windy but not too uncomfortable.
The consultant had set up her wares and we used another table to lay out our food and a third table to sit around to listen to the LL spiel.
The hostess poured us all a pina colada each to get the ball rolling - at 10am 😳
While we were all ordering LL, we arranged the food for easy access and filled our plates with all the goodies. Everybody brought GF food so I felt really special! One of the girls even made an orange and almond cake with dairy free cream which was ‘to die for’. We all requested the recipe.
We don’t look very happy in the pics but we were actually full of beans and giggles and it was a great day.
I spent way too much money! But I know it’ll be worth it.
Adoring Husband picked me up at 1.30pm and by the time a arrived home I was feeling decidedly unwell.
I unpacked everything and put it all away, got changed and lay down on the bed.
The footy was about to start so I hooked into Foxtel on my iPad and set it on the stand on my mattress ... and promptly fell asleep!
I think I roused 4 or 5 times during the next 4 hours and I glanced at the footy score each time and fell back into a deep sleep.
At 6.30 AH brought me a couple of chicken balls.
Our original plan was to cook a baked dinner together but obviously I wasn’t capable of contributing so that idea was put off til tomorrow.
It’s now 10.30pm and I’m feeling much better, but I’m wondering if I’ll be able to sleep tonight!
Let me try.
Nite all.
