But best of all, we now have residents visas, bank accounts, and a temporary place to lay our heads. All this combined means that we now have our kittuns back with us!

They have lots of exploring to do too!

The Quiet Weekend

I’m sorry I skipped last week my faithful readers. There just hasn’t been much noteworthy going on to report.

This past weekend was a quiet one. There was some cleaning up done around the house, and I finally catalogued most of my yarn stash on Ravelry.

We had some friends turn up to help us move some furniture which doesn’t really make for interesting blogging or photography.

We did go down to one of our local cafes for breakfast on Sunday though. In our little corner of little Italy, it’s a French café. Who’d have thought?

There were ristretto and orange juice each,

followed by a mushroom and pesto frittata for myself, and a ham and cheese omelette for himself.

Photobucket

All in all a lovely way to spend a few hours soaking up some sunshine and reading. I’d recommend it to anyone! ☺

The countdown continues

As is I guess standard for this time of year, things are hectic.

The little doors on the Advent calendar are being opened one by one.

Friday night was the end of a long week, and we ended up first in Cockle Bay,

Photobucket

then over in Darling Harbour where we had tapas for dinner

with Sangria.

Over the weekend I put up our tree. With a little help from Himself,

Photobucket

it was decorated.

I thought this the perfect accompaniment.

There’s a gold ghoti somewhere … oh yes. Near the Electric Bass.

After all that excitement, and in an effort to escape the unseasonable weather, it was time for a bit of a snuggle for some warmth!

Deus Ex Machina

Not the God in the Machine, but the Motorbike Café on Parramatta Rd.

We ended up there for breakfast the other day. It had been several years since we’d been in, but they still have some beautiful pieces!

The food wasn’t half bad either!
