Stay Calm, NRMA are coming


Panda in Chinatown
Last Friday I was stuck outside in the freezing cold after work because my car batteries were drained from leaving the headlights on (which, mind you, I dont recall turning on since I was driving to work in the morning...). My mobile batteries also died that day, just my luck huh? Although lucky for me, the owner's parents lived next door and I could borrow their phone to call NRMA. It was the only day I didnt bring my jacket, beanie and gloves. I was hungry and freezing outside waiting for NRMA to arrive. One hour later a smiley NRMA guy came, jump started my car and I was on my way home. I took a long hot shower to thaw myself out. brrr.

In other news: I had a virus in my laptop this morning and it was blocking my security software (and every other program) but after a bit of panicking and some sobbing, I finally got rid of the virus myself and didn't lose any of my files. Yay, its always great when I dont have to go and pay for someone else to fix things if in the end the solution was so easy. I love when things go right.

I want cake!


Macaroons from Adriano Zumbo's The Lab
I drove to Rozelle today in search of an amazing cake for Ken's birthday tomorrow. Instead of cake, I came home with an array of macaroons (one being Satay flavour), a banana mango cherry muffin, chocolates from Belle Fleur and $10 left in my pockets...So no cake and no time to bake, I guess going out for dinner will have to do. I shared my macaroons with him though, funny enough he made macaroons for me at his work. Yeah...getting a bit over macaroons now...

oh..and the guy totally forgot it was his birthday tomorrow..either he's working too hard or he's just getting old. hmm...
