Breakfast before work

I had a Breakfast Baguette Meal, which consists of a Breakfast Baguette, hash brown and coffee/tea (I had a bottle of Berri Multi-V juice instead). When I picked up that wrapped Breakfast Baguette, I […]

You will be pleased to know this should be (if nothing else comes up to distract me) the first of multiple posts this evening! This was our dinner on Wednesday night this week. First, Jac served up bowls of soup she’d made on her day off (she had Tuesday after Easter off while most of […]

Easter Sunday family barbecue

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 […]

Lunch with C

Yesterday, C and I had lunch at Taurus Hawker Foods. We’ve been talking about meeting up for a meal for aaaaaaaages, since before I finished my PhD. It took till Easter long weekend for us to get our act together! Our failure to get together all this time is not because we’re slack – actually, […]

Hamburger toasted sandwich

These latest posts (including the two before this one) are all out of sync. This is my excuse: I was behind with my posts to begin with, then posted about my birthday and work food out of order because I was so keen to share that with you guys, and then over this Easter weekend […]
