My contribution to yesterday's dinner: Potatoes & Chorizo, using Handle the Heat's recipe.
Catching up with Nichola = food + exploration. We went to The Star (which is very flashy now) and spent quite a bit of time in Adriano Zumbo's store. I wanted to check out the dessert train, but that opens at 6pm.
I always like checking out what strange macaron flavours have been cooked up!
These, as well as the ones featured in the next box (Redskin, Milo and Fingerbun) were pretty popular.

What I bought: damper & jam, redskin and lychee.
They were all really good, and the flavours were great. The lychee one was kind of tasteless at first but then the lychee kicked in and wow. I had a bit of Nichola's musk stick macaron too - yum! I really didn't expect to enjoy it because I don't really like musk sticks much... ah, how the canteen memories have been brought back, oh those days when lollies weren't banned...

Beef burgundy pie + tomato sauce for $5.25. It was delicious.
I had a nice strawberry milkshake too for $4.50

I haven't walked this much in a long time! It was raining really heavily too, so by the end of the day I was pretty soaked. My Zara flats even stained my feet purple... anyway, it's Australia Day now woohoo!
