HEllo hellllOOOoooo..
I promise I have not abandoned this little keepsake of ours - just that life has just been on fast forward this past month I feel like I'm struggling to keep up!!! It's already the end of autumnal May for god's sake and this will be our only post in for the month! ¯\(°_o)/¯
It all started with the family visits - the parents and the aunts and cousins that came - and with all the eating and the shopping and the eating and the visiting and then more eating that we did, there's not a rock in Sydney there we have not uncovered or plate left unfinished.....clearly an exaggeration but it certainly felt like it.
Don't get me wrong though - I loved showing them about and sharing how I live but 3 weeks in a small space and close proximity is a very very long time.
Then we did a move as well!! Finally after all the discussion and inspections after inspection, we finally all agreed on a new place together! The sister is so pleased that she finally has a room to call her own after all her years alive!
New place rocks some balls!!! We're def loving it lots - we didn't even go through a settling in phase - it was immediately home. Thank You Mum! She did all the planning and organizing and coordinating that I barely had to lift a finger. *blows freshly painted nails*
So you know rather than losing weight and sleep deprivation due to the moving stress, I think I've gain some more instead. FML. Packed lunches and dinner every night the moment I step into the house. And the strain from the month of overeating is still evident when I attempt to put on my jeans!! Double FML.
That said though, I would very much like to keep my mummy here forever. She cooks and cleans and packs and showers us with much needed TLC. I won't bear having her leave in 2 weeks!
Blasphemy!! I Won't survive!!
o(╥﹏╥)o
Anyhoos, here are snippets of what I've been up to:
Coogee - Am wearing Mum's super huge Jedi Visor for full UV protection.
Let's play spot the Kiasu Asian.
Fish Markets (DUh) and yes I am overly excited about the size of the watermelon -__-''
Lowenbrau and Hurricanes - sworn off meat after these meals.
Mad Pizza and Hungarian Kurtosh. I liked how they used recycled Khong Guan biscuit tins to make chairs - reminds me of my childhood.

Absolutely felt all good and gooey and mushy after cos dessert was superb :)
Chocolate fondant served with vanila bean cream and peanut gelato in kidney bowl trumps all dessert!!
Last food collage I swear !! Brunch for champions just this past Sat.
I've realized that I have turned into one of those Ultimate Asian blog person that takes pictures of any food consumed!!! The one that everybody on the table has to wait for for snapping all dishes laid out - the one that everybody secretly hates and scoffs and rolls eyes at for keeping them from their food. And the one that blog readers just ignores and scrolls through them food pics quickly anyways.
I Solemnly Swear I will reduce my itch to brandish my phone every time the food arrives.
Heh, you know how they say that a picture is worth a thousand words.
Count the calories in those pics.
FAT BOMB Explosion.
LOL.
Apologies for being lame but it's late and it's raining and cold here and I wanna go put on two socks on each feet and go to bed and dream of a steaming mug of hot chocolate.
Good night and I promise there won't be the painstaking wait for the next post.
A lil preview:
I'd like to do a sartorial one next because my coats and jackets and shoes are too pretty to not come out and play ♥
