Some slightly exciting news – this site’s been featured in the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper today – in the section called “The List”. Woo hoo! Read it here: The List (PDF 337KB) And so, I’d like to give a warm welcome to new readers from the SMH, many thanks for coming to check me out! […]
Wednesday this week turned out to be a big day of eating. For lunch, Chad and I went to Toraya. She had the dish that’s become her favourite there, the medium agedashi tofu lunch box. I had my favourite, the karaage donburi, topped with chilli mayonaise. Both our meals included miso soup (not pictured). Back […]
A couple of years ago I wrote about Melbourne Cup Day and lamented being part of a too-small office of PhD students – I missed working in a big office and taking part in sweeps and lunch and getting caught up in the excitement of the day. Well, as I now work in a reasonably-sized […]
Dinner 3/11. Savoury chops with steamed cabbage and silverbeet, and mashed potatoes. Those are lamb chops – Jac uses a family recipe to make the “savoury” sauce, which is delicious and lip-smacking, plate-licking gooood. Lunch 3/11. Jac made a caesar salad to take along for a barbie with mates who were getting together to watch [&…
Goodies from Jean Claude Patisserie made a return appearance for afternoon tea at work today. More on this soon.

Then, a large combination with rice and two meat curries and one vegetable curry. We each chose a meat dish; Jac chose lamb and spinach curry and I chose butter chicken (surprise […]
The toasted wraps from MYO are currently my favourite lunch item. :-D I had two of them this week and I know I will have more again next week! Tuesday. The last couple of times I had a wrap for lunch I still felt a little hungry afterwards. This week, I boofed up the meal […]
Last Sunday, 28/10: Jac fried the bacon and toasted bagels under the grill, I made scrambled eggs. We’ve been buying free range eggs, and I love how brightly yellow the yolks are (to contrast, see these scrambled eggs from a family brunch a couple of years ago). I ate my bagel with butter and honey. […]
Yesterday, Jac and I went into town to do a little shopping. I needed a new outfit to wear at an upcoming work function. By the time we emerged from the last shop, laden with shopping bags, feeling tired and considerably poorer, we’d also worked up a good appetite. We decided to have a late […]
