I found myself running late last Wednesday, and didn’t have time to pack a bento lunch. I also didn’t have time to grab breakfast before leaving for work. When I arrived at the office, I was starving. J was on her way out to get a coffee and told me she’d pick me up something […]
Since buying the Nintendo Wii, I’ve had to adjust my morning routine so that I can fit in a little blogging, a 30 to 40-minute WiiFit session, and packing bento for lunch, all before getting ready for work, still leaving home and getting to work at the same time I used to, pre-Wii (sorry, I […]
I met up with my friend Chad for breakfast last Monday! We’ve been emailing and SMSing regularly but have both been really busy (regular readers may remember Chad used to work with me but is currently on a secondment at a different office) – it’s been a little tricky finding the time to get together. […]
Breakfast, an example of great teamwork: garlic mushrooms (cooked by Jac) and scrambled eggs with chives (cooked by me). As usual, I got to eat the pan-roasted whole garlic cloves. Dinner: tender panfried mini pork steaks, bubble and squeak, salad and chilli sauce. The pork steaks were simply rubbed with salt and pepper before being […]
Whenever I haven’t had time to organise any protein for my bento (whether leftovers or prepared specifically for bento), I fall back on good old hard-boiled eggs – this is what I had to do for my Thursday bento. Jac didn’t need lunch on this occasion – here’s the lunch I packed for myself. I […]
I met my friend C for breakfast last Friday, at Ba Ba Black (Shop 25, 60 Royal St – Cnr Plain St, next to The Royal pub). It was a chilly morning and we were among the first customers that day, arriving at a little past 7am. It didn’t take long for the cafe to […]
My family got together to celebrate my mum’s birthday with breakfast last Sunday at The Boatshed restaurant (Coode St Jetty, Coode St, South Perth). Here are some of the breakfasts devoured at our table: Juji’s traditional breakfast (AU$23.50): sausages, bacon, tomato, ciabatta toast, hash browns and two eggs, scrambled. My brother̵…
We had bacon and egg bagels for breakfast last Saturday morning. Jac toasted and lightly buttered the bagels and fried the bacon and eggs. A little tomato sauce – perfect! Jac used egg rings to keep the eggs neat and round. She cooked the eggs so that the yolks weren’t hard or powdery, but they […]
Last Saturday, at the shopsJac’s chicken caesar wrap from Pure + Natural. I suppose it’s a deconstructed sort of caesar filling in the wrap – lettuce, bacon and some sort of caesar-style sauce (but of course there shouldn’t be tomato in a caesar – and I guess if I was being nitpicky I’d say the […]
The hard-boiled egg molds (they are called “Easy Boiled Egg Shapers“) I ordered arrived last week. As you can see, I got four different ones – car, fish, bunny and bear. How to use Easy Boiled-Egg Shapers: Hard-boil your egg. Peel the egg while it is still hot. Place the egg in the mold. Leave […]
