Friday night after my dreaded interview I wanted to go out for dinner to celebrate it being over But Mr. J had a headache, so it was a night of chilling on the couch withe leftovers, Entourage S7 and fro-yo! Oh, and some wine. My parents’ housewarming gift was a dozen wines, and a wine rack – a variety of white (they know I am not a fan of reds). So we opened the first bottle and it was lovely.
I think the left over stress left me with left over adrenalin, because I woke up at 4am on Saturday – and I was not too happy about it!
Saturday morning was spent feeling pretty average So I just did mundane household stuff > washing anyone? Unpacking (still!). Plus our carpenter came to do some alterations to our place – the fridge now fits properly, there is a shelf in the laundry, and the open pantry now has doors on it. Much better
Saturday afternoon we traipsed around Fyshwick looking for bedside tables and getting some tools for Mr. J. He loves having a place to do some reno’s on it.
After that we chillaxed until it was time for date night
Le Tres Bon in Bungendore. We started with a Gavroche beer for Mr. J and a hibuscus flower champagne cocktail for me > Delicious!
We started with escargot – which was suprisingly really good. The flavour of the sauce and accompanying bread was yummo. Then I indulged with beef bourguignon, and Mr. J had rabbit – poor lil rabbit(!) Both dishes were amazing – but I preferred mine
And then it was dessert time: O-M-G Pear anch french dark chocolate and butterscotch sauce > Check out the little hearts in the sauce: Adorable!
Lovely dinner, and lovely company
Sunday was another slow start, but we hit the apartment with more sorting and packing away – trying to make a dent in the spare bedroom. Mr. J did really well, and we made more than a dent(!) It is looking really good, and I would even let someone stay in there – But we have no bed!
Then it was off to Howard’s Storage to pick up a shower caddy, as we’ve just been leaving everything on the floor for the past 3weeks… We picked up a corner one, and a hand towel ring thing
