Birthday happiness and an unexpected bonus!

 

Today is Dh's birthday and he's had a lovely time.
Yesterday we invited some of our SW friends to join us for lunch at an Italian restaurant and we all ate as though we didn't belong to a sliming group!
Dh and I had pizza because we never have that at home, we brought more than half home as it was too big to eat in one meal for us. Dh had a starter too, Calamari Fritti and I had a taste, wow it was amazing. All six of us had something different and we all  thoroughly enjoyed our meals.. I had Profiteroles for pud, Dh had Tiramisu and all our plates were cleaned. It is so nice to go out and eat normally when you're dieting!!
Such a super time, good food and loads of laughter!

And an absolutely unbelievable letter in the morning for Dh was from HMRC, tax dept, he's had a very substantial amount of money from them, as they had under paid him 21 years ago!! We were whooping it up in our lounge this afternoon. Who would have believed it?
So a lovely day all round and today we have some treats planned for our evening meal. I can see its going to be bread and smell for me the rest of the week before I step on those SW scales, but it was worth it.
