Scored myself the exit row window, with noone in the centre seat on the way down to Melbourne on Friday morning. Sweet! Quick on and off with only my hand luggage, too ;)

Apparently Qantas are trying to increase their recycling on planes, collecting the bottles separate to the food and other rubbish now. Got a juice and some Kez’s cookies on the way down. I ate the Honey and Macadamia one, and alas threw away the chocolate.
The return flight last night was packed, with very little time for the dinner service. Lucky for me, I’d requested a Vegan meal, so as to avoid the cheese and other potential things that wouldn’t agree with me.

I scored a roast Mediterranean vege sandwich on 9 grain, and a cute little Quinoa flour cake. And was served before my row mates who suffered through their ham and cheese on dry brown bread with a minny toblerone. No wine service on the weekend CityFlyers, so I stuck with the water.

Started the day with a walk around Holder and Duffy… I think I saw the first Kookaburra since I’ve been in Canberra!

Finished the day with a run around the bridges with Rish. 5k, and back under 30mins (29:49)! Even with the wind. eeps.

With the wind farm in the distance. Gorgeous.

Summer dinners for me involved something small and cooked, surrounded with a huge amount of salad!

Saturday Dinner.
Of course, it’s even better to get Rish out on the BBQ :) That’s where salmon, steaks and sausages come in!


Enjoyed a few glasses of wine… retoxing a little after my week away ;) The wine’s a sparkling sav blanc, and the strawberries tasted awesome after soaking in it ;) Picked those up for less than $2 a punnet at Aldi.
Last night I made the cherry tomato and feta tarts from the Golden Door cookbook :) Once I figured out defrosting the pastry they were nice and simple. Next step will be finding a place to buy frozen egg white here in Canberra so Rish doesn’t have to get through so many yolks!


Post-gym smoothie. :) Frozen berries, Ladybird Soy Protein, So Good, Jalna Greek yoghurt and ice.
