Out to dinner and an Elvis tribute.

 It’s been a while since my daughter and I went to dinner and a show. We used to go to a few when we lived in Melbourne. This was the first time in a while. We enjoyed a lovely Chinese dinner at Andy’s. 

Then got to the theatre for a glass of wine before the show. A Wednesday evening at 7.30 pm in October. A beautiful evening with the flooding rain on its way.

Next we were entertained with a lovely trio of Elvis impersonators.

Wow, no. 1 was 100% fantastic. He could move and sing. It reminded me of my Saturdays watching the Elvis midday movies with my mum. I could have watched him all night. No. 2 had a good voice but his moves and actions were strained and a bit jerky and forced. No. 3 was a great entertainer. He could sing and got the whole audience to participate. He even did a tribute to Olivia Newton John who recently passed away.

A special dinner out - then some sewing

 Hubby and I have wanted to try this restaurant for quite a while now. We finally went. 

Hubby started with a crab and watermelon entree 

And I had a crab dish.. delicious

We enjoyed wine, mains and desert.

A yummy crème caramel for hubby and a pav, choc dish for me.

Even though it wasn’t cheap it was a very special evening.

A taxi was called, the door was opened and off home we went.


A little bit of sewing.

Here is what I made to send to Maria. It was a fun little swap. We all like to get happy mail.

I know Maria likes going away in her caravan so this made me smile.

I have used this very large tea towel.
Many years ago I worked  at a school camp and we had these tea towels. The washed up so nice and dried the dishes so good that the staff could buy some. I still have some in the cupboard and thought I’d share one  with you.


It looks great on my oven. Hope it does on yours Maria.


And now I have started Bonnie Hunters Rhododendron Trail
