^^^ Thursday started in the library, trying to get work done on an assignment due next week...^^^
^^^...and ended at the outdoor cinema in the botanic gardens. FYI The Intouchables is an awesome movie that you should all go see right now ^^^
^^^ Friday was an eye-ball-drying, cheek-pinking, skin-burning scorcher - getting to 43*C around here ^^^
^^^ Such extreme weather called for cold watermelon and Weis bars ^^^
^^^ Saturday involved making fresh bread /// Best served with dukkah and dipping oil/vinegar ^^^
^^^ We also gave Mitch's pasta maker a try /// Turns out it was well worth the effort ^^^
^^^ Thursday through Sunday involved house-decorating {more will be revealed later ;) } ^^^
^^^ On Sunday Mitch found his dream car at a vintage car show... /// ...and I picked up a 9k white gold ring for $25 at a flea market ^^^
^^^ Then {at another market} I found a mango the size of my head, and the weekend was done ^^^
{All good weekends should end with oversized fruit. How did your weekend go?}

That mango looks so good! They seem to be getting really expensive again which makes me sad as it probably means they are going back out of season. I have never been to an outdoor cinema, your photos definitely make me want to try it out.
ReplyDeleteWOW that mango is awesome. And I love that you tackled home-made pasta. I've never tried but everyone talks about how much better it is. Looks like you had an awesome weekend. Because I still have another full day ;) So far it's been good. Low-key, having some lunch with a friend today. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you've been having a good weekend Kelly! The relaxed ones are the best. And the pasts was quite fiddly - definitely wouldn't do it every night! - but worth it for a treat :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Megan! Yes it's making me sad that they're getting expensive again, although this mango was a bargain at the markets - $3! And I think the Sunset Cinema that we went to is also in Canberra? Worth checking out :)
ReplyDeleteThat outdoor cinema looks SO awesome! And fresh bread? YUM :)
