Between the time I rang MK and actually bought the custard puffs, Jac and I had brunch. We’re savoury rather than sweet people, and so custard puffs, although appealing, just wouldn’t cut it as breakfast food for us. We chucked a few laps trying to decide where and what to eat. Jac sort of felt […]
I’ve been reading about Beard Papa on other food blogs for ages now. My friend MK and I have been drooling over the posts and photos, wishing and hoping that Beard Papa would come to Perth. My younger sister Juji and I have talked about how good Beard Papa’s custard puffs look. Recently I found […]
We recently had brunch at Leonardo’s, which is a cafe at Carousel Shopping Centre (see details and map here). We ordered two dishes to share. First, a caesar salad (AU$9.95). Jac absolutely loved the dressing because it was particularly parmesan-cheesey. We both thought the bacon pieces were a good size and the croutons were extremely [&helli…
Here are two recent dinners, cooked by Jac (of course), and eaten enthusiastically by me (of course!). First, a noodle stir-fry with chicken, garlic tofu and vegetables (onions, garlic, mushrooms, green beans, spring onion and baby corn spears). The noodles are Japanese mushroom noodles Jac bought from an asian supermarket. I think she used mushroo…
I’m back again, after one and a half episodes of Magnum P.I. while aerofitting. Jac is at her hockey club’s season windup, hopefully having a good time. It’s just me now, in my tracksuit sitting in front of the pc, with Magnum on the telly and Billy Lee purring at my feet. Pixel, who doesn’t […]
I’ve tried my best to be a good hockey wife lately. Last weekend I watched Jac play in her hockey match. On Tuesday this week I went with Jac to watch her hockey club’s top men’s team play for a chance to be promoted to the Classic League. The match was at 7:15 at Perth […]
Sometime ago I wrote about SPAM Single. Well, I finally cracked it open the other night and cooked it up. It would have been cool to create something really original with it, but I wasn’t feeling particularly inspired, so I just did my usual thing of SPAM, egg and rice. Here it is, sliced into […]
I’ve wanted to post during the week but didn’t have time, and so tonight there will be multiple posts for your pleasure! Here’s the first. This was lunch on Monday at uni. From left to right: vegetable curry (with zucchini, cauliflower, celery and carrot), teriyaki chicken and green curry chicken, on rice. The green curry [&hellip…
This was my dinner tonight: lamb kofta meatballs with rice. We didn’t make the meatballs – Jac’s brother’s fiancee Kelsie made them, but Jac’s brother turned his nose up at them (apparently he made vomit noises to express his dislike of them) and since Jac happened to be at their house at the time, she […]
We decided that we’d go into town today after checking my PO Box. Jac wanted to go to the West Australian Tourist Centre so we could pick up some brochures and maps to help us really start planning our November/December holiday (at this stage, we think we’ll be going to Geraldton for a week or […]
