Thank you Iluvspikey ..... have a great evening .... I am sure your friend will love whatever you make for her - but I chose the curry for her as you mentioned she likes most things spicy ... and the lemon mousse would be a nice cleanser afterwards. It will be perfect whatever you chose as whenever we cook for someone, it's special when thought has to go into it for them specifically - and she will appreciated that I am sure! x
