We went to a wedding reception last night and then on up to Bristol to stay with some friends so that Mr VST could join his Best Man for a 60 mile Audax this morning. I sat and chatted with Best Man's girlfriend and cuddled their gorgeous 5 1/2 month old baby for the morning before heading to The Spotted Cow in Bedminster for lunch. The ride turned out to be 70 miles rather than 60 and they didn't get to the pub until about 2.45pm. I ordered the veggie roast which was the usual roast potatoes, parsnip and carrot with cabbage and a pithivier (aka little round flat pie) stuffed with leek, red onion and blue cheese. Thankfully there wasn't much blue cheese in it as I'm not that keen on it and it was delicious. It was all served with a tasty gravy. We then moved onto pudding, which Mr VST had undoubtedly earned, me not so much! We shared a chocolate delice with an almondy soft biscuit and a chocolate and raspberry cheesecake. Both were absolutely delicious and the delice was out of this world.
Needless to say we were both a bit full and having eaten so late didn't really need supper. Mr VST had some eggs and then joined me when I had some cheese and crackers.
