Dinner

This was our dinner one weekend. A serving of green salad, chips and deep fried crumbed fish fillet.

Ruby Tuesday

This is a people mover train in Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney. I am not sure how much is the charge taking a ride on this trackless train but this is a great and convenient way if you are planning to get all around the 74 acres gardens.

David's new haircut

I decided to cut David's hair last Friday. His hair is growing quickly and needs to be trim every now and then. This was not the first time I cut his hair. Ever since he was little, I used to cut his hair myself and he is always happy with the result. The last time I took him to the hairdresser to have his hair done but since we didn't do anything last Friday afternoon, I asked him if he would like to have his hair cut done by me and he said a big yes. He always loves when mommy does it. Dorothy said he looks different but cute and hubby likes it too.

Today's flowers

These are my orchids. I have a small collection and some are blooming this time. Most of them were bought from a friend who is selling plants for a fund raising. The latest orchids that I got haven't bloomed yet but I hope next year they will show us their pretty flowers.
Have a great week!

Camera Critters

Here is my camera critter post. Pictures were taken on different days at the front yard. These birds are called noisy miners. They are the constant visitors of my grevillea plant . I purposely planted the grevillea in the garden near the driveway to attract native birds. But so far I have seen only one kind that gets attracted to it.

Noodles for lunch

Since it was raining on and off today, me and the kids didn't go out. We didn't feel like going out with this kind of weather. The kids were just happy to be at home playing with each other, watching tv and sometimes play games in the computer. Me on the other hand, busied myself cleaning the house as well as the guinea pig's hutch. I was glad I finished everything before lunch time and the thought of a Filipino food for lunch was so appealing. Hubby was working until 8:00 pm tonight, so it is only us at home. Wasting no time, I prepared the ingredients for my Filipino noodles. It was good that I still had a pack of rice sticks from the last time I cooked noodles. I sliced piece of pork into small pieces, garlic and onions. Upon checking my vegetables bin in the fridge, I was lucky I had still cabbage as well as carrots to add in the ingredients. We haven't done our weekly vegetables shopping yet, so I thought I will just use whatever is available in the kitchen that takes my fancy. With only those ingredients, nonetheless my noodles still tasted good.

Ruby Tuesday

It's Ruby Tuesday time again and here is my post. I have two pictures here and the first one was taken during the Camping, Caravan and Holiday Expo which was held in Penrith west of Sydney earlier this month. This is just only some of the food stalls during that day. We had chicken kebabs and chips for our lunch which we bought from the Australian Kebab House. Below is a cute mug hubby received during Father's Day.
