Brunch at Miss Marples
We brought Katie to Mt Dandening for brunch. It was a good thing that she drives, and so we took her Cooper out for a spin the whole of last friday. J and I haven't been up to Sassafras for quite awhile, and it was nice to head up there again. It was rather liberating to look at the magnificent view from the peak of Dandenong.
This is what we did -
Miss Marples' scones, chicken cottage pie and salmon cheese fingers.
I am going to try make Bread and Pudding next week!
The Tea House - I love this tea house and I would proclaim this as one of the best teahouse ever. When Mel brought me here in 2009, I fell in love with this little shop cause it makes me feel like a first year Hogwarts' student buying potion from one of the wizard shops at Daigon Alley.
Sky High is just one of the many touristy spots to go. They have a small yet cozy garden to walk around. Spectacular view, but sad to say, the food at the cafe was horrendous. The chips were dried, and it felt like they've undergone the process of frying for a couple of times.
Our last stop for the day was at William Ricketts Sanctuary.Well, a strong wave of tranquility swept through J and Katie, but I felt the place was a tad too creepy for timid me. The sculptures were amazingly human like, you could see the expression of the faces quite clearly. But I couldn't look right into their eyes for more than three seconds, I was too afraid the sculpture's eyes might blink or something. I was gracefully freaked out by the many intricately-created statues erected on the ground, next to hundred years old trees.Nevertheless, it was quite a peaceful and enjoyable moment for us three.
The picture I thought stood out from the others that J took. A stunning beauty, isn't it?
I had cupcake session with cell on Saturday, and went to Top Gear on Sunday, which I would post here the next few days. Anyway, I've paid for my Europe trip!! Melbourne-Paris-London-Netherlands/Germany-Italy-Melbourne. I can't wait and this is going to be a highlight to look forward to this year!!
