This week I have been

Reading

Campaign Ruby, by Jessica Rudd, for our online book club Better Well Read Than Dead. She certainly loves name-dropping her labels.

Watching

The Plan, which reminded me that I haven't dropped enough hints to C recently about how much I want the BSG box set on Blu-Ray.

Listening to

The Pogues

Discovering

...to my great disappointment, that Jared Leto is in 30 Seconds To Mars. Why, Jared, why?

Eating

  • Mee pok at Coconut House
  • Matt Stone's fresh, Spring-y quinoa salad from this month's Australian Gourmet Traveller. (I decided that dinner was more than a "light meal", though, so added some fried haloumi for a meat-free Monday.)
  • Suckling pig rolls at Collins Quarter, which are on for another three or four weeks on Wednesdays (and at $5 a pop are a bargain). They will be followed by Spring lamb!
  • Baguette with pork rillettes from Le Traiteur - the crunchy, acid pickles go so perfectly with the rillettes
  • Eggplant with minced pork from KL Bunga Raya
  • Ipoh Hor Fun (again!) at Gurney Drive. Perfect on a wet and steamy September Saturday.  C had the Hainanese Chicken Rice and the rice was beautifully flavoured.
  • Some sticky ribs and fish-flavour pork from Fucshia Dunlop's Sichuan Cooking
  • Compost cookie batter, with Lanka mix, wasabi peas - thanks to Penny for that idea! - Twisties, Mars Bar, Clinkers and Oreos. Oh, and some Special K.  That'll teach me to try to be super-organised for morning tea. (Some did make it to the oven, I promise)

Lies…

…and the lying liar who keeps on telling them.
