Easter Monday brunch

On the Easter Monday public holiday, Jac and I had brunch at Hungry Jack’s with our friend K. I think it’s great that you can order from the regular menu at breakfast time at Hungry Jack’s.

Meals at home

Lunch, 16/03/2008. Ahhh, my old favourite, fried SPAM and egg with rice. My favourite side with this is baked beans, and sometimes I like to mix corn kernels in with the baked beans. I eat the corn and Heinz baked beans as a hot side dish with SPAM, egg and rice, but I also love […]
