Wednesday last week (10/10): Jac and I had dinner at the International Food Hall at East Victoria Park. Jac’s been craving a lot of sashimi lately, and chose the sashimi plate from the Japanese stall, which included rice, miso soup and a big bowl of soy sauce for dipping. The sashimi consisted of salmon and […]
Saturday (6/10): Jac fried bacon, eggs and tomatoes for breakfast. Soft egg yolks, fresh cracked black pepper… perfect. She made herself a fried egg, bacon, tomato and BBQ sauce toasted sandwich. Here’s the sandwich before it actually was a sandwich – before she bunged the piece of toast on top. Breaky filled us up, and […]
Still catching up on photos/posts! These were dinners we had the week before last. Tuesday (2/10): We grabbed some takeaway from Singapore Hawkers Chinese Food, which is Shop 4 at 113 Collins Road, Willetton. I’ll be honest and say that SHCF wasn’t our first choice – we’d have bought dinner from Taurus if it had […]
This is just how far behind I’ve gotten with posts – here are my lunches from not last week, but the week before! Tuesday (2/10): I had a late lunch at uni – yes, uni. I left work at noon and caught the bus to uni to meet up with my PhD supervisor. I timed […]
We hit sideshow alley and the rides last of all. We used a couple of our $2 off coupons so they cost us $6.00 instead of $8.00 a ride. Jac went on her favourite, the Wave Swinger, and then we had a go on the bumper cars. I was torn between driving the bumper car […]
Continuing on with the Show photos… This was one of my favourite areas of the Show – the cooking exhibit. On the day we went, the cakes and other baked goodies were on display. First, some original wedding cakes… I liked the minature champagne on this cake. Although they didn’t have red hair, this bride […]
We always love looking at the poultry exhibits. I forgot to write down the breed names of the chooks, sorry! The label for this one said “Frizzle”. I called this one Tina Turner. I’d like a big rooster like this in the backyard as a guard chook. The big chooks are quite fearsome to look […]
Here’s the big Coke Can I was talking about earlier. This lemonade stand got a good run when the sun came out. Jac bought a cup – she thought it was refreshing but perhaps less sugary, more lemony. Here’s the Lamb Van – we didn’t actually buy anything from the van this year. But there […]
Continuing on with Show photos… Jac always says how much she’d like to drive a bulldozer. We always have to stop and check out earthmoving vehicles that are on display. She’d like to have a go driving any of these, actually. We soon found ourselves in another food hall featuring a Chinese food stall. [&hel…
The baby animals were so cute. The baby goats were happy, all dressed up and munching away. The duck on the left wouldn’t stop talking! Seriously, it was quack quack quack non-stop the whole time. They had assembled the plumpest chooks I’d seen in a while! I presume this was to maximise the cuteness factor. […]
