Yesterday we went to Sheffield and then had to go to a garden club meeting so I didn't get to do the marinade for the lamb until about 11pm last night. By the time Victor and I got it all done it was past midnight. There was so much to do today before everyone arrived at noon. Although I set the alarm for 6am I really couldn't make myself get out of bed.
Once I got myself out of bed at 7am, I went at a 100 miles an hour !. I had the salads all ready, I was making a few of things I hadn't made before. The BBQ butterflied lamb with Cumin, Rosemary, lemon zest and lemon juice, BBQ beans with Marjoram, Mint and Thyme, which then had a dressing of lime and brown sugar. I think it came out quite well. The other thing I made was the dessert. It was called Chocolate and Berry Pavlova Cake.
I was somewhat happy with the outcome, although I would like it to have been a bit more perfect. I can always try it again I guess. Here are some pictures of each step of the dessert.
