Picked up a tub of strawberries and a chunk of Callebaut couverture chocolate. Perfect after-dinner nommage.

Have made massaman beef and steamed vegies for Saturday night nommage.

Oven has decided to go belly-up. Tonight's dinner, therefore, gets done under the hood of the BBQ.

Doing a corn-fed chicken filled with sage, onion, garlic and breadcrumb stuffing.

It's just about done.

"Professional" mints. FFS! How I would love to slap the person/team at Wrigley's responsible for this unimaginative concept.

So who is suitably qualified to use these highly technical devices?

Sourdough round from Brasserie Bread.

Kit Kat Caramel Chunky is sublime.

Bundaberg Ginger Beer is a Queensland favourite. Time to down a bottle before our flight back to Sydney (via Brisbane).

...also the morning's breakfast venue.

This is Bistro One.

2 x Subway cookies.

NOMS!

....perfect for braised lamb shanks (in lemon and thyme), with roasted potatoes, minted peas and roast carrot mash.

NOMS!
