Call me Nigella ...

As I had the house to myself this weekend, I had Mel, Lou, Jess, and Bel over for my first dinner party ... where I did all the cooking ... without mum's help!

Having not done this before (and not having had a trial run), I was a bit apprehensive about the whole thing (esp the risotto), but I think it worked out well. We had a yummwarm rocket and squash salad and asparagus and mushroon risotto for the main (which Mel helped me prepare!), followed by chocolate pudding with vanilla icecream and strawberries.

Mum wanted photographic evidence of my culinary skills, so Mel very generously obliged.

Happy easter all!
