In the City



 

Relaxing in the Lindt shop at Martin Place after Saira's grade 5 music exam in the City. Tried a variety of things but I only liked the iced chocolate and the eclair was OK. The waffles were no good- soggy even without the icecream. But S enjoyed it immensely and as it was a reward for her music grade (a good B+) we were happy.

Out & About

At the park at Newington Armoury. Bright, lovely day and the kids had a ball around the water fountain and on their bicycles. Very busy with lots of families making the most of a lovely winter Sunday in the school holidays.

The GFC Risk Diversification Birthday Cake





What to choose if you want to have several different cakes or flavours? How to minimise the risk that just a mono flavour cake might not please the taste buds? Get a GFC Risk Diversification Cake: an assortment of cakelets including coconut macaroons, choc hazelnut slices, lemoncurd tarts, rum balls and biscuit cake. Missing: baklava.

One Day at the Quay....

Strange goings-on at the Quay, in front of Customs House. Meet Dave:



It's easier to understand the dental floss bit if you'd seen him from behind- but I didn't take a picture so will have to leave it to your imagination!
