Dinners at home

28 February 2008

Here are a couple of dinners cooked by Jac last week.

18/02/2008. Jac bought peri peri chicken breasts which came out of the packet a flaming red – and they were as hot as they looked, no – a squillion times spicier and hotter than I had imagined. No, really – they were yummy, but ...

Last week’s lunches…

Monday: SRM and I had lunch at Toraya Sushi (Shop 8 Subiaco Square, 29 Station Street, Subiaco). SRM had the medium size teriyaki fish bento box (AU$12.00).

Valentine's treat

25 February 2008

We were too busy to do anything for Valentine’s Day on the day itself, but as a special treat for ourselves we’d booked a night at a hotel for the Saturday night of the weekend after Valentine’s. And so after my breakfast/interview with Cellobella in Subiaco, I headed back home to help Jac finish ...

Breakfast with Cellobella

24 February 2008

As I mentioned recently, I was interviewed by Cellobella recently over breakfast at the Subiaco Hotel last Saturday. Over the time I’ve been blogging, I’ve met and become good mates with a few bloggers – funnily enough (you’ll probably not be at all surprised), we always met up over a meal!
Prior to the ...

Bakery goodies

23 February 2008

On Thursday morning last week, SRM went to Cafe Cafe to grab a takeaway coffee. He asked if I’d like something, and I requested a serve of fruit toast. Cafe Cafe’s fruit bread is covered in sunflower seeds and has quite a dense, heavy texture emphasised by the thick slicing of the bread. ...

Midweek dinner date

23 February 2008

13/02/2008. I met Jac after work and we drove to the International Eating House food hall at East Victoria Park for a midweek dinner date. Jac ordered the regular teriyaki tofu set (AU$6.00 – I think). Yep, that’s right – this was the regular size, not large!

The tofu has a very thin, ...

Rainbow mudcake

23 February 2008

15/02/2008. It was L’s birthday, and she brought in a gorgeous cake for afternoon tea. I asked for permission to take a few photos before afternoon tea commenced and the hungry hoards appeared. When I peeked into the cardboard box, I was amazed by the cake inside – I’d never seen a spectacular pink, ...

Dinners at home

20 February 2008

I’m running behind yet again with posts and comment/email replies. Here are some of our dinners from the past week or so as I try to catch up. I just don’t have enough time on weeknights. It’s so frustrating. Bring on the weekend.

10/02/2008. I stir-fried some green vegies – bok choy and ...
