A christmas present, a curry and a movie

There are many pleasures in life but the simple ones are often the best.

Jake wanted to make me a chocolate cake as a belated Christmas present. Having chosen the cake and the topping, we shopped and he made it for me from start to finish on his own. He discovered that over whipping double cream turns it into butter but a butter cream filling (especially with the rum) was equally good.

A great cake.

The new slow cooker was used to make a curry at the same time. A bit of this recipe and a bit of that. Not one I can easily reproduce but it was fabulous.

Then a movie, just the 3 of us.

As Louis Armstrong used to say, what a wonderful world.

Thanks Jake, I know that you get sad at the end of the weekend, but it is great to spend time together.
