The second dinner at Sarah’s house was lovely and provided an ideal opportunity to catch up after Bath. When the girls and I arrived Sarah’s twin daughters greeted us and read a very long list of drinks on offer.
Sarah then gave us some snacks to munch while we waited for Claire to arrive. Just before dinner we got a guided tour of the house from the twins who told us all about their room and why pink and blue were their favourite colours.
Sarah’s menu was:

Watercress & Bacon Salad
![]()
Glazed Oriental Salmon served with new Potatoes and Seasonal Vegetables
![]()
Lemon, almond and strawberry gateau served with light chocolate sauce.
![]()
As you can tell the food looks good and very impressive considering it was all low fat.
Over dinner the conversation covered what we did whilst on the Ladies Night Out Club’s weekend away in Bath and Claire’s upcoming wedding in May.
With the conversation turning to to weddings we talked a little bit about dresses and we also got to look at Sarah’s previous wedding photos from 1992.
What the girls thought…
“The menu worked really well and the Salmon was absolutely gorgeous.”
“The food was lovely and I absolutely loved the sauce with the salad and the glaze on the Salmon. The pudding was very tasty and you could really taste the lemon, the chocolate sauce was delicious. Overall the menu worked really well.”
“I liked the salad as it was really fresh and quite a unique idea and will probably try it at home in the future. The Salmon was really fantastic and I really enjoyed it. The cake was also good and when Sarah told me it was low fat I was surprised..”
