Day 18 - Burgers and ice cream

A day shopping together at Bunnings, the girls were highly excited by everything there. We ended up with a paddling pool so they don't have to sit in plastic tubs anymore!

A lazy afternoon. Which ended with an early dinner of Rob's home-made pork & veal burgers (made with grated apple, fresh sage and oregano), served on a Pigeon Whole Bakers brioche bun, topped with bbq onions and Rob's tomato relish. With a glass of home brew and the bifold doors open, Saturday night jazz on the radio, we thought life doesn't get much better. Except then there was the chocolate ice-cream.



The girls were happy to potter around together on the terrace after dinner.

Monday's Menu

The weather was absolutely foul yesterday afternoon and this morning. Pouring rain, snow on the hills, wind, cold temperatures. We hibernated yesterday afternoon, lazing on the window seat. But today we had to head into work. Poor Rob had to brave the elements to collect various eucalypts on the way to work for his practical class. He looked very soggy by the time he was done with that, luckily we had a dog towel (barely used) he could use to dry his hair and face, not much could be done for his mud splattered jeans though.

The menu at the hut has been quite simple:

Monday: After spending the day at home snacking we ate baked beans on crumpets.
Tuesday: Stir fry rice with the last of the pork belly.
Wednesday: Pasta puttanesca.
Thursday: Sausages and silverbeet.
Friday: Pork and veal cheese burgers.
Saturday & Sunday: Beef Bourguignon and mash pie
