The Mezzanine

Photos!

Day 85:


This is a vineyard on the Mornington Peninsula.

I drove down there for a hen's night. (Actually, more of a hen's day - it started with lunch at the vineyard, and then continued on until the wee hours of the morning.)

Pretty pictures!

Day 71:


A nice piece of Australian countryside.

I took this picture out the window of a train, on the way back to Melbourne. If you look closely, you can see the reflection of the book being read by the man sitting in front of me.

Even more photos! (Getting sick of them yet?)

Day 57:


This is my chocolate pudding, from last week.

dr_carrot and I ate it together. Mine's the one with ice-cream, but she didn't want ice-cream, and decided to have a drink of milk instead. There's really no way to have chocolate pudding without something white and dairyish.

Day 43:


Pumpkin soup, at Miss Marple's.

Miss Marple's is a lovely restaurant in "the hills" (Sassafras - but everyone just talks about "going to the hills"), where the decor is traditionally English and the food is extremely filling. I had pumpkin soup, chicken and asparagus fingers, and a banana split.

The nephews had "kid ice-creams" for dessert, and were thrilled - but still asked if they could share my banana split.

Day 29:


These are the plants out the front of my house.

It wasn't actually a very good photo - so I've messed around with it and made it all fuzzy at the edges. Thoughts?

Photobucket to the rescue! It seems to allow permanent hotlinking - so I'll actually be able to keep my photos here for longer than a day! Hurrah!

This week's batch are mainly pets and miscellaneous items in my kitchen...

Day 15:


Danny the dog.

He's a Shetland sheepdog - the third one Mum's had. We started out with Carly, then Penny, and now Danny. It's taken me quite a while to remember that he's a boy and stop calling him "she". (In our family, cats are boys and dogs are definitely girls. It's a whole thing.)

Day 1:


This is Josh.

My parents had their annual New Year's Day barbecue, and all four nephews were there, having a wonderful time. I took several photos of Josh playing with this weird turtle-y toy - and mentally thanked the inventor of the digital camera: it allowed me to see how badly the first six photos had turned out, so I knew to take more...
