Happy CNY!

Our dinner last night!

Happy Chinese New Year all! :)

Breakfast in Style!

This is my 3rd breakfast weekend in a row! :) I love going to breakfast - although just before u wake up, you question yourself why you made an appt so early in the morning when all you feel right now is to sleep........ BUT it is always worth it! So, at 830am, we went for a lovely breaky @ Bluewater Grill @ Heathcote, at Applecross. I didnt take many pictures, but it is a FANTASTIC place for breakfast - actually it is a fantastic place full stop. A couple of years ago when I went, the service was bad, like terribly snobby! But they seemed to have got fairly decent staff now :)

The weather was a little windy on Sat so they sat us inside the restaurant. The outside would have been fantastic, visualise this, you are seated under one of those umbrella tables, and there is beautifully manicured lawn infront of you, and beyond that is the swan river with city views! :) ahhhh... fantastic..... :)

They haven't actually got a website, but it is called Bluewater Grill and for $14 you can get a delicious continental breakfast that includes salmon and wonderful baked products and fresh fruit, and for $27.50 you can get hot food as well! Highly recommended - this is a great place - both day and night. Next time I go, I'll have to take some ambience and surrounding photos, rather than just this plate of food :P

A Sweet Heart!

In celebration of V-Day, I baked some heart shaped pineapple tarts! :)

I think next time I make these, I should bake the pastry first then put the filling and then bake it for a few mins! I have been finding that if not, the filling dries up, either that or you dont get a nice golden brown pastry colour! Next time!!! :)

You know what's interesting about these tarts? It actually tastes better the day and days after.... it is a little too crispy the first few hours after it has baked... it seems to "settle" after a few hours...!

Due to the busi-ness that every weekend promises to bring, I wasn't able to make my other V-Day themed item this week! But stay tuned - Shona gave me an awesome gift - which will assist in the next "fruit" from the Kitchen! :)

Hope you all had a lovely V-Day and CNY! :)

Btw - I have got permission from Gerard to advertise his blog here, check his blog out @ http://longingforsimplicity.blogspot.com/ - you will definitely be extremely amused - esp with his V-Day theme! :P

A Girly Breakfast!

Up and ready to go this morning we were! :) I had some of my girlfriends over this morning for a girly Birthday Breakfast! :) We had a great time - must do it again next time! Age must really be showing, instead of the late night coffees, breakfast is quite the option these days!

Thanks gals for coming and thanks for your gift! :) - thanks WanSee and Joey too (unfortunately weren't able to be at the breakie *sniff sniff*)

Desserts @ The Hyatt

As they say.... a picture speaks a thousand words.... :)

Enjoy! :)

"Love is In the Air...!"

Inspired by a friend's blog @ Simply Life (I'll add in his blog if I get permission!), who is going to blog about love n relationships this month since it is Valentines Day... got me thinking!!! Why dont I have a Valentines Day theme too! And my favourite colour is PINK! Perfect perfect perfect!!! *big smiles*

So for the month of February - at least once a week, I'll try to bake/cook something either pink, or in a heart shape! *claps hands* Imagine a heart shaped piece of steak, or a pink loaf of bread! Hahaha jk! I promise it will be eatible! :) Ahhh I'm so excited now! So hopefully you'll stay tuned, and check out what gets created...! :)

By the way, if any of you have great V Day themed food ideas or any cool stories along the theme, do share! :)

See ya all soon!!! :)
