Tea Out with Roslyn

Towards the end of October I met up with my friend Ros for tea. She works in a school so half term is the best time to catch her, so we had made plans for the Tuesday evening. I drove to her house and she drove us into Sheffield. She has a blue badge which meant we could park right near City Hall. We had decided to go to Pho because we both like it. So we got there and it wasn't too busy, but it wasn't too empty either, which was nice. 

I had the veggie summer rolls with peanut sauce, and I had the spicy tofu curry for a change instead of the ordinary one. I've had it before and it's sometimes too spicy for me, but this time it was lovely and I really enjoyed it. 

When we had finished it still wasn't very late so I said to Ros that we should go somewhere else for coffee or something, because her kids would still be awake at home and if she went home she would just end up putting them to bed and she was supposed to be having a break. She suggested we went to the Chocolate Bar which is near to Cambridge Street Collective. I've been past it but haven't been in, but I've heard it's great. So we walked over there. It's very cute inside, although it doesn't have a lot of seats. You choose the percentage of chocolate that you want. I think I had 60% and I ordered a humongous slice of chocolate cake too. I only ate half the cake and took the rest of it home for Lee and I to share later. 

We had a good chat and it was nice to spend some time with one of my oldest friends. We went back to hers but by the time we got there it was about 8.50 so I just came home. When I got home Lee was about to get in the bath so I made him take my photo before I got changed. I was wearing my galaxy print dress from Topsy Curvy, with red marl tights that are excellent winter tights, and my purple and green checked cardigan. I pulled out some of my favourite boots for the first time in the season. They're from Pavers or something I think, and they're very comfy. I love the patent black of them and the detailing on the front. 

Summer rolls and peanut sauce, as is tradition. I had some kind of dragonfruit drink, which was delicious
