When you have a little visitor.

One of  Dh's twin daughter's and husband and grandson have come for a holiday here, not staying with us, but an Airbnb.. they like to come every summer. So Dh has gone to the beach to play at being grand dad. He's wearing his bathers to go in the sea! I have reminded him of his age and that the Coast Guard had put out notices of extremely high waves, so to approach the sea with care!

They arrived Monday later than expected, with the holiday traffic and came here for a very late lunch. 

Dh had planned all sorts of things to suit his7 year GS.. Food was a selection of BBQ meats, baked potato and green salad with coleslaw and a French stick of bread. But his grandson has decided to become vegetarian, altho'  his mum said he really a pescatarian as he eats fish and also a Cheese Burger! I asked like a burger with cheese.. emmm she said, but we don't say anything!! It seems some friends at school are vegetarians. 

Anyway Dh being very much himself, trimmed chopped and shaped a variety of veg, including carrots, celery, beetroot, baby home grown tomatoes. tiny mange tout peas and cheese, displayed on a very pretty plate it did all look rather nice. He had already set up one of the bags we've used to grow potatoes, which had soft dry soil, for his grandson to dig for his own potato! That was exciting for him.. and he ate all the potato that had been baked with butter and his crudités! 

Followed by strawberries, meringue and ice cream, and so did we..

Honestly it was all delicious, the BBQ  meats, coleslaw, baked potato and butter; all foods that are not our SW meal plans, especially the ice cream, it was truly 'lush!'

So nice to have a change of food now and then, and we didn't need a breakfast yesterday.
