On the Tuesday before we left for Sydney, we had dinner with Jac’s mum, Pattycakes. Before we left home to go to Pattycake’s house, we had a Christmas hamper to assemble. This was to be Pattycakes’ Christmas present from Jac’s brother Jon. He lives in Sydney (we stayed with him on our holiday) and had […]
Also known as: Death by Curry. Last Sunday (21/10), my family held a “full moon” celebration for the newest member of the family, my brother and his wife Ange’s first child, my first ever niece Ruby. The full moon celebration is usually held when a baby is around a month old – in this case, […]
We were supposed to attend a barbecue at our friends Lou and Dan’s place yesterday at 3PM, but when we got home from the shops around lunch time I felt like crap and didn’t think I’d be up to any kind of socialising. Jac suggested I have a sleep and see how I felt. At […]
Still catching up on posts! On Friday night last week, Jac and I, her brother J and her mum (known affectionately as Pattycakes) went out to dinner to celebrate Pattycake’s birthday. We went to Caddy’s, full name Jack Caddy’s Bistro and Ale Bar, located at 280 Bannister Road in Canning Vale. Pattycakes had been there […]
Had a family lunch today, which Mum called “East meets West”. Beef curry… Sweet and sour pork… My brother’s mum-in-law brought a yummy vegetable bake. Made with broccoli and cauliflower, it was like a cross between cauliflower cheese and a quiche – it was made with eggs, soup mix and cheese on top. Peri-peri chic…
This morning we had breakfast at my parents’ place. My mum had invited my sister jl over for breakfast before she flew back to Sydney, and then Mum decided to invite everyone else as well and have a big family breaky. And big it certainly was! One of my aunts brought along almond croissants. I […]
Remember how at lunch recently my friend MK and I agreed we should get together and hang out more often? Well, she picked me up after work on Friday and we went to her place. Her hubby AK made dinner, and of course Jac joined us too. This bowl of salad sat right under my […]
We had a family dinner on Wednesday evening – no particular reason other than we haven’t had a get together for a while, I think. Oh, and we really wanted to meet my sister and her hubby’s puppy Paco. Everyone brought a dish to share. Mum and Dad’s friends M and A came along too. […]
Heheheh, okay so perhaps it wasn’t really an extravaganza, but I thought that would be a cool title for this post. Last night, we went out for dinner at our favourite asian food hall with my Mum and Dad, my sister Juji and her boyfriend and my brother. My brother’s wife (my sister-in-law) wasn’t there […]
Jac and her mum were originally supposed to go on a road trip together over the Easter long weekend to see her brother B, his partner K and their kids in Kalgoorlie, but there were a few unforeseen technical complications which made this impossible (long story, I won’t elaborate further). And after many alternative Plans […]
