What we’ve been upto lately

Well hello there, its been a while since I’ve posted properly so here’s a quick run down on the latest events:

We went out to dinner with Simmy and Jonathon on Friday and purchased an Entertainment Book for 2007 off them, its a fantastic little discount book which has pretty much already paid for itself. We went to a nice little Italian restaurant called Michelangelos in Carlingford Court where the one woman service was fantastic and made up for the rest of her staff which were pretty ordinary. We asked for a takeaway menu and got one with onions all over it. Gross!

On Tuesday we met Andrea for steak dinner at the Pennant Hills Inn. Rhyl was off in Melbourne or something snobbing us :p The steak was thicker this time around which was good.

On Wednesday we couldn’t be bothered cooking so we had pizza hut pizza, used a coupon which let us have two pizzas for 7.95.

On Thursday I went shopping at Parra with Mal (found some spiffy boots for $14, should be good for a few wears and a nice pair of woollen fingerless elbow length gloves) while Andy had fun on his own at home after which the family went out to dinner at another Italian restaurant called Belmontes in Baulkham Hills (tonnes better than the Belmontes in Penno).

On the Friday after that we were feeling lazy so we used our entertainment book at "Il Nidos" on Terminus Street near Towers which is guess what? An italian place! We have totally overdosed on italian and pizza which is ok because the Italian festival is on in Sydney right now but yeah…no more pizza/pasta for a while please. We tried taking photos we really did (ok well I did) but were a tiny bit too tipsy to get anything web worthy…

Saturday was our day off, we hung out and went plant shopping at Hargraves Nursery (50% off all plants over $14), Andy got a dwarf lemon tree and mandarin tree to put on the balcony, we also got some Basil and Coriander which is my baby, everybody says they will die within the next few weeks but you never know right?!  I ended up getting a really nasty splotches all over my face and arms and neck after we got home from walking through all those weird plants. That night we played poker with Andi and Rhyl at their place (had pizza for dinner hehe…) Andy’s taken a few videos i’m not sure what he’s done with them.

Sunday I worked at Myer while Andy hung out and cleaned the apartment a bit and did the washing, we met for lunch (A potato for Andy, rice, mongolian beef and asian style veggies for me) which was nice. Dinner was some Subway from the place across the road, they’re really very nice people there.

And today we have Monday…basically just worked our butts off and came home for a nice relaxing evening with Burritos courtesy of Andy.

Wow that was a huge backlog of events….tomorrow who knows what will happen, perhaps its my turn to cook? Did I mention the time I made a nice pork curry/soup thing? Twas awesome. Anyhoo stay tuned for more!

Smily comtemplating over ThaiAfter I managed to tear excited Andy away from the computer (which was hard after his whole "Admin"ship) we went out to dinner at our favourite (so far) Thai restaurant "Gail Thai" located a few streets away from our apartment in Central Avenue. We love it because we always find the last parking spot left, its BYO and hardly anybody else eats there which is a real shame because their Gaeng Massuman Lamb is fantastic (sweet curry mildly spiced with peanuts and potatoes). Perhaps their free home delivery for orders over $30 is their main source of income? Anyhoo it was a nice night out.

Yum Cha Fun and Family Dinners

Andy enjoying his yum cha

Saturday was a pretty busy day for us. We ended up going to Towers to do some shopping after doing some washing. We checked out what movies there were and ended up seeing Disturbia (which Andy will write about later), then we walked around shopping, picked up my new leather jackets (red and pink yay!) and for lunch we had Yum Cha up at the Phoenix chinese restaurant which had great service as usual and the usual variety of yum cha.Sumali munching away

After that we had to hop step it and get our apartment ready for a dinner party for my family: Mum, Dad, Malisha, Amila and Khris. I did the vacuuming and salad and Andy did the Pasta and Garlic Bread and pretty much everything else. We ran out of spices so I had to drive really quickly to the nearby shopping centre and pick up some supplies. As soon as everybody arrived we ate because the food was ready to be served, Andy did very well. For drinks my mum brought some pineapple cruisers, Amila and Khris brought their red wine and me and Andy had our Muscatto:

Hogs Breath on a Thursday Night

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at PhotobucketAfter veggin out on the sofa watching tv (Harry Potter) on a Thursday night, we decided we’d best do something so dinner at Hogs Breath Cafe it was.

Castle Towers Piazza level 5 is host to one of the nicest (and expensive) steak places in town.

 

 

Andy under the Hogs Breath Cafe sign I had a steak and ribs combo and Andy had a mixed platter thingy. I decided mine was the best and Andy decided his was better so I guess we each ordered the best thing. The steak was nice but they forgot my pepper sauce, it took them a while but they finally got it to me after i’d eaten everything else on the plate. Luckily i’m not fussy about stuff like that……

Malisha’s Birthday at Jiminez

Happy 18th Birthday Malisha! Tonight the family (Sumali’s Mum Mala, Sumali’s Dad Andrew, Sumali’s Brother Amila, Sumali’s Sister-in-law Khristine, Andy and Sumali) took Malisha (Sumali’s sister) to Jiminez in Baulkham Hills for some nice Mexican food. The service was great this time (quality of service really changes depending on when you go). The food was good (not fantastic like it sometimes can be) and we all got to sing happy birthday while they brought the cake in.
