Jac didn’t need lunch for work last Monday. This is what I packed for myself. Salad, sliced leftover spicy Italian sausage, steamed broccolini and a little curried coleslaw. I just love how brightly green the broccolini is. I simply sliced up one of those delicious spicy sausages and included a monkey food pick for easy […]
Shredded cabbage, carrot and capsicum, which I dressed lightly in Paul Newman’s own light lime vinaigrette. A simple salad of cos lettuce, snow peas and cherry tomatoes. This bread comes from Bakers Delight and is called the “Continental Hungarian Roll”. It’s topped with a crusty layer of cheese and is unbelievably soft and …
Dinner last Monday: lamb and garlic sausages from Woolworths, with garlic mashed potatoes, peas and baked beans with corn kernels. The sausages had an enticing springy texture and were so well-seasoned I didn’t need any sauce. With fluffy garlicky mashed potatoes and bursty corn kernels and peas, it was a most satisfying meal – pleasura…
This post features the Lunch on the Go lunch box by Fit & Fresh. You can buy the Lunch on the Go lunch box from my Amazon store. Jac didn’t need a packed lunch last Friday, so I only had to worry about myself. My lunch was vegie pasta stir-fry, beef sausage and strawberries. I’d […]
Last Friday night’s dinner was an old favourite – bangers and mash. The sausages were low fat pork, yoghurt and mild German herb, according to the butcher, and they were really delicious. Jac served them with peas and corn kernels, fried onions, panfried mushrooms topped with seasoned fresh parsley, and of course, creamy mashed potato. …
Last Sunday, we celebrated Jac’s nephew Max’s 5th birthday with family barbecue lunch. It was quite a feast! A garden salad with hard-boiled eggs, cheddar cheese cubes and avocado. Jac’s brother B’s special coleslaw, made with white and red cabbage. Creamy potato salad with more hard boiled egg – yum! A fruit platter, …
On the second-last day of our holiday in NSW, we met up with E at long last. She picked us up from Jon’s place and took us back to her home to meet with Leika and Cobber, her gorgeous furry babies. I wish we could get a kitten, but we really need a bigger house […]
On the 2nd of January it was, sadly, time to leave Nelson Bay. We said good-bye to D, who was staying home to study, while L drove us to Newcastle, where we would have lunch and then make our way to the train station. But just before we left, L told us that S who […]
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 […]
We were supposed to attend a barbecue at our friends Lou and Dan’s place yesterday at 3PM, but when we got home from the shops around lunch time I felt like crap and didn’t think I’d be up to any kind of socialising. Jac suggested I have a sleep and see how I felt. At […]
