It’s been another pre-op special lunch week.  First Pipocas invited me out to a new place (for us) called Oporto and we had a wonderful meal. Then Nog took me out for a tapa snack at one of our favourite places, Enrique Becerra (scroll down to photos 42-44) and the boys there treated us to drinks and a tapa as well as hugging me and saying they’ll see me in December. So I was feeling quite nicely spoiled.

And so yesterday I * decided to spoil Nog a bit and take him to a Mexican place called La Chaparrita that we’ve been wanting to try, ever since my friend Judy recommended it a couple of months ago.  Nog had never had Mexican food before (well, other than the stuff I make at home) so we ordered a special menu for two that came with a selection of various dishes. And he loved it. We cycled there and walked back and it was indeed a very pleasant afternoon.

* of course when I say “I”  treated Nog I mean “you guys” did (you know who you are) as I had to use donation money to take us out.  And so, just wanted to thank you for a fab lunch and a special treat.  Especially as it’s going to be broccoli & green tea at home for the next couple of days and for who-knows-how-long after I get home from hospital.
