I did grocery shopping at
Stockmann the very same morning. As I often need help and guidance with my simple cookings I prefer shopping at Stockmann or some smaller food stores where you can get good service. And yet again Stockmann managed to exceed my expectations: I needed mature avocados for the same evening and they were hand-picked to me by the staff. Ten points for the service - I have sent feedback to the store!
First course was avocado prawn salad, a simple yet tasty appertizer by a recipe I took from
Me Naiset magazine.

Ready-to-eat avocados and fresh, not frozen prawns from Stockmann with a slight hint of olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
Main course was my hit recipe Dragon Chicken, which was so delicious that it disappeared before I got a photo of it :-).
Dessert was finger-licking good lemon pudding that I got recipe also from Me Naiset. I was little bit nervous how this dessert will turn out as you needed to use gelatine, but it was actually pretty simple. So pleased that it was a success and definitely going to make this dessert again!

After the dinner it was lots of laughs, deep and funny discussions, good music, dancing (
Frontside Ollie), fun and freezing in a taxi queue!
And the next morning refreshing breakfast at my place: strawberry smoothie,
Grannas apple juice,
God Morgon orange juice, bacon and eggs.

Such a yummy Easter break!
