It's the weekend, with loads to do. We had a very nice breakfast.



The guys taking the hedge down turned up early but had clearly underestimated the task, so only did the front instead of it all.





In the evening I made a vodka rigatoni, which I had heard about on a podcast and took a recipe from Mod Kitchen









It was very tasty. 



Sunday did a nice chicken dinner.
