Life has a funny way of burying my days with completely unremarkable days. Work managed to steal most of my walking moments, but once in a while the occasional surprise managed to find its way among the monotony. Like the piece of jack fruit that some very nice neighbours donated after we knocked on their… Continue reading Happening and catching up
Taste of Sydney (or London)
It’s a beautiful summer evening. The sun was still high in the sky and as we walked closer towards Centennial Park for Taste of Sydney with some crowns in our pocket, the nagging sense of dejavu did not ease. Flashback to last June, when I was wandering Regents Park at Taste of London, it all… Continue reading Taste of Sydney (or London)
Brokenwood lunch
Should I ever sit down one day and start writing my bucket list, somewhere on that list will be the line item “stomping grapes in a vineyard”. Happily thanks to a trip down to the Hunters on Sunday, I can now cross that hypothetical item. Late last year I joined Brokenwood’s wine club and one… Continue reading Brokenwood lunch
A Valentine preview
It’s been a while. Moving house, a draining busy work schedule and simply doing too much meant that I have very little time to process my own thoughts. Unfortunately, unless something major happens in the near future, the situation is unlikely to change. Sunday will mark the double celebration of Chinese New Year and Valentine… Continue reading A Valentine preview
Midweek Supper Group (MSG) – #4 Faheem Fast Food in Stanmore
You know when the food is good when I had to fend hands from dragging a plate of chicken away before I can take a shot. It was another Midweek Supper Group (MSG) meetup and we were in Faheem Fast Food in Stanmore on a Wednesday evening. Their sign outside of this humble looking establishment… Continue reading Midweek Supper Group (MSG) – #4 Faheem Fast Food in Stanmore
This is our city in Summer – Sydney Festival 2010
The first Saturday of the year marked the beginning of the Sydney Festival for 2010. Although this is my favourite time of the year and my favourite festival of the year, holiday plans in the past meant that I always ended up on missing out on the Festival’s First Night. Not knowing what to expect… Continue reading This is our city in Summer – Sydney Festival 2010
2010
2010 started by drunkenly toasting the year ahead to the strain of Black Eyed Peas’s I’ve Got A Feeling. Not quite sure what this means, but on the first day of the year, my voice was husky and I was very happy. I can hardly believe, that it’s already the 9th day of the New… Continue reading 2010
Sydney’s Food Blogger Christmas Picnic
I somehow managed to earn the right to be a food blogger for some reason. How else, did I manage to score an invitation to Sydney’s biggest food blogger event last Sunday? Organised by the lovely Helen and Suze, it was the biggest gathering of foodies I have ever encountered. The group met in Hyde… Continue reading Sydney’s Food Blogger Christmas Picnic
Just like mum used to make
Just like that it’s December and I am still trying to catch up with October. Here are some late photos from the Like Mum Used to Make exhibition at Mars Hill. It’s a bit of a learning curve for all involved, but it turned our rather well and expect to see it again next year.
By the sea
The rather insane heat wave in the past week was an unwelcome reminder of how hot the Australian summer can be. Scanning through photos of last week’s visit to Sculpture by the Sea I wonder what will power prevented me from flinging myself into the sea rather than be jostled around by the thousands of… Continue reading By the sea
