Work lunches

22 September 2007

You may have noticed recently there are now ads appearing on various pages of this site. I’ve decided to try and earn some income from the site. I promise there won’t be any popups or pop unders, which personally annoy the hell out of me. I’m still experimenting with different ad programs, display ...

Tomatoes

16 September 2007

The tomatoes we’ve eaten at home lately have all been homegrown. And look – plenty more to come! What’s so cool about these tomatoes is that they grew from food scraps Jac threw in the garden bed, which obviously included tomato seeds. Really!

Yes, we had pizza again

16 September 2007

Ordering pizza via internet is so easy. And discount codes make it even better. We used the code 9UDY to get 2 large pizzas, 1pack of brownies, 1 cheesy garlic bread and 1.25L Coke for $20.95 from Dominos.

Jac also felt like chicken wings (4 pack, $5.95). They are salty and spicy, like ...

Bagels for breakfast

16 September 2007

For breakfast this morning we had poppyseed bagels which Jac toasted under the grill. Jac made me scrambled eggs to go with my bagel. She garnished the eggs with chopped green onion tops – the tops of the onions growing in our garden – they smelled so delicious on top of the eggs. ...

Saturday lunch

16 September 2007

We went to the Save the Children Book Sale in South Perth yesterday morning. Jac was rather pleased – she scored loads of cook books for $68 – most books were 50 cents or $1, a few *special* ones for $2 – $3. I didn’t make any thrilling finds for myself, but in the ...

MOO pizza on a Friday night

16 September 2007

We did MOO pizza on Friday night – Make Our Own – using lebanese flat bread for the bases. This one had ham, sausage, capsicum, mushrooms, fresh tomato, onions, dried oregano and lots of chopped fresh garlic. We used tomato ketchup for the sauce. In an ode to Domino’s Godfather pizza, we called ...

Dinner at Taurus

16 September 2007

Jac and I met up with C, E and Em for dinner at Taurus Hawker Foods (Shop 10, 113 Collins Rd Willetton) on Wednesday night. I was a little worried that it would be too busy and we would have to wait to get a table, but the timing was perfect and we took over ...

Work lunches

Monday: from Nippon Fare, teriyaki chicken sushi (5 pcs, AU$4.40) and inari sushi (2pcs AU$3.70).

One of the inari was filled with sushi rice peppered with black sesame seeds – yummy. The other one had little wisps of green seaweed in the rice (sorry, no photo, but if you look carefully at the photo above of ...

Do the hoki

16 September 2007

On Tuesday night, Jac made a delicious dinner with fish and vegies. Using hoki fillets – I think these were New Zealand hoki, which we bought from the supermarket frozen – she layered: fish, sliced fresh mushrooms, a little butter, finely chopped garlic and fresh silverbeet, then more mushrooms, more garlic and more fish, ...

Monday stir-fry

16 September 2007

We had another stir-fry the next evening – chicken with black bean sauce, which Jac had marinating in a bag in the freezer for weeks – and carrots, broccoli, bok choy and cauliflower with noodles. The chicken had soaked up the black bean flavour and was so tender. This was fantastic – and I ...
