Days Off

Peter has recently been blessed with a new job along with a couple of offers he received from other places whom were undoubtedly impressed by his skills and potential as a bartender or the sort. Congratulations to him by the way and I'm so glad he works where he does now. He's been badassing it for a couple of days and I even had the pleasure of meeting a couple of the people working with him. On a day off I was torn between picking places to go for the day's trip. But we managed. The heat to and from in his car from the lack of a working air-con was all worth it once we walked over the small hill to the beach. The breeze was cool and peaceful. Sadly, we hadn't stumbled across any rock pools but we caught glimpses of fish swimming near by in the shallow parts of the beach. The water was both hot and cold, keeping our temperatures cooler for the day and we relaxed for a bit before heading back to the car. I've mentioned this before but I don't fancy beaches much however, taking your toes for a dip or just the scenery is rather satisfying, indeed.

Season 2 Premiere

Anniversaries are one of those very special occasions which I'm assuming everyone plans ahead for in order to have a lovely day planned and see itself timed perfectly. I felt like we were given a free 'cheesy pass' for the day so we had quite a few awkward moments directing different poses and trying not to cringe at all the cheesiness. The day before was another 40+ degree day and I was dreading that it would be our fate but the breeze was cool and the sun shone much too brightly in our eyes so we were blessed with graceful weather down at Pipemakers where we usually are. I'm pretty sure we were struggling to avoid mosquitos most of the time in-between compliments and repositioning. 
In advance, we booked a table for two at the Brooks of Melbourne and they have given us every reason to return as the service and the staff were wonderful, the place was warmly lit and the presentation of the food was outstanding, each dish was delicious and as for the portions, they were enough to suffice you for the rest of the night. I have no idea how I could describe the artistry of their dishes since the mixes were foreign for me and rather baffling but they complimented each other perfectly. I had been looking forward to their Forest Floor desert since peeping the menu weeks ago and it was adorably presented with a remarkable resemblance exactly that of a whimsical forest floor. It reminded me of when I used to pretend fairies would be sleeping in the mushrooms in our grass when I was younger. I highly recommend their restaurant to anyone who is looking for a place to wine and dine or try their lunch menu which I'm considering for next time. I do hope you enjoy the pictures as much as we did and perhaps cringed a few times too. It sure was a wonderful day, start to finish.
