At my house.....



This weekend has been lovely stay-at-home weather.

With lots of rain, we mostly hung out with Poppy and Tiya Ning, eating soup and drinking tea. The boys watched a bit of the Bathurst 1000 and had a quick walk in between downpours. The girls talked craft, books and food. There was also reading, board games, audio books (Fantastic Mr Fox), craft, puzzles, drawing, riding bikes in the garage, long bubble baths (the kids, not me, unfortunately) and ABC kids.

And.... No cooking.

On Friday night, Mr Moo and I went out for a belated anniversary dinner. We went here and ate amazing food with amazing service. Even the torrential rain could not put a damper on a lovely night. See Pitchfork's full menu here. We ate this:

Prawn stuffed zucchini flowers, rocket and aioli
Crispy skinned duck, asparagus, roast pumpkin, goats cheese, honey pine nut salad
Mixed leaf salad, apple balsamic dressing
Hot soft centered chocolate pudding, hazelnut praline ice-cream
Espresso brulee, choc amaretti biscuit ice-cream

With a good bottle of red wine, that was a gift and a couple of perfect macchiato's to finish off.

Then on Saturday night, we went to the club, our usual thing when Dad is here for the weekend. Here, we ate, as usual, their amazing roasted pork belly. Yummo!

Go over to Buttons by Lou Lou to see what's been happening at other people's houses.

  1. Sounds like a great weekend for everyone - I did lots of sewing and baked some ham and cheese bread rolls with Lucy - nice rainy weather kind of day with the smell of baking bread.
