A day of good tastes


food-wise of course! the first highlight of the day yesterday was meeting up with katrina in Boxhill. it's really nice to see her again, and her english is so perfect now! really good ^_^

the second highlight was lunch. yumm. we had noodles. as everyone knows - i love noodles! all sorts! i had some stirfried beef noodles with mushroom and leek and they were quite yumm. katrina had some more traditional handmade noodles in soup. i didnt have any photos so u can just imagine that my meal looked similar to this.

looks good, yeah? im suddenly hungry again! haha

third highlight of the day was spending the late afternoon at cathy's house and catching up with leila!!!!

together with daniel and kate we took turns tasting a selection of french chocolates kate had given to cathy, all ordered carefully, after which cathy just tipped haphazardly onto the table ^_^

we chatted, drank tea, cathy packed for her trip away, and daniel was made to feel most 'uncomfortable' by some r & b music. haha.

and then cathy generously doggy-bagged some of her (as promised) pink lemon tart and cream. and some of her nougat too, which dad and i have been munching on all day. the tart was so good. yumm! and even top marks for presentation.


i believe that's where the line is really drawn between people who can cook, (with a little luck and practice) and people who are actually good at cooking. if you're good at cooking then it will look perfect too. and yes, from what i see of it, cathy's cooking is usually of the latter category of cook. haha, something i doubt i will ever be bothered to strive to achieve myelf. so yes, its nice to enjoy it, of others.


here is me,very proud in my pink coat, and my piece of tart and nougat carefully packed away. haha, i think i look a bit awkward, but never mind, that's what comes of self shots sometimes.


kate and daniel also were lucky enough to score some nougat.


and they're both intent on unwrapping a piece to sample before they take it home. it must be good nougat!


dad drove me home again after playing taxi for me all day, something i noticed doesnt happen too often these days, cos i was commenting on how weird it felt to be in a car with him, instead of me catching a bus. oh, and how sad i am in reflection when i remember the glee i felt when i realised i'd never be doomed to catching the school bus again! as always seems to be the case in my life, one bus is simply replaced by the next. but at least i frequently get a seat on australian buses. suppose that counts for something good.

i had homemade hamburgers, with beetroot and some good mayo, followed by my delicious dessert. all in all it was a very pleasant day!!

and then the good eating was continued again today, with some spaghetti for lunch, some toasted ham sandwiches for afternoon tea, a roast beef with potatos and gravy for dinner, and some chicken and vegie soup for late night supper. all in all, in relation to food, it was a very good weekend to be alive!

a speaking of food my sweet leo should be enjoying some korean bbq for dinner tonight. yumm. i want some too. love that restaurant. love their bibimbap mixed rice, gimchi, and barbeque marinated beef too! so delicious.

and even though China seems to have blocked blogspot.com again, with the great firewall of china, everyone needs to wish leo goodluck studying for and sitting his exams!

*jia you!* ('add oil' = cheering) ^_^ lol
