I've watched all of these, but haven't had the time to review them yet. I will get them up as soon as possible. I've decided to add TV shows on here, but only when I watch the entire season at once, so True Blood: season one will be on here first and soon I'll have my thoughts on Battlestar Gallactica: season one.
Walt and Ken are "gourmet all the way" when it comes to alimentation! They prepared a special pesto made from radish leaves (from their garden). It was DELISH! It didn't taste a lot different from the basil pesto, except maybe not as pronounced as the basil. Boy, was it GOOD!!! And, just on a secret note... I ate this really delicious chicken, too!! I'm a little "less" of a vegetarian at the moment! : )
Walt and Ken prepared this delish starter for us-- yummmm!!!!
Visiting Liliana and Eli...

The stupid game:
They spent a few dollars with this thing hahaha
Managed to loose the house keys that night, that I proudly believed I would hand it back to Amanda before I leave the house. Last good impression, NOT!
A month before I told Nadia that I would reserve a day just for her before I leave, since she was one of my best "Mates" in Sydney. Along with my morning emails I sent the suggestion and this Sydney girl replies with what seemed to me like a "Race Around Sydney", u know like the show that those dudes run around cities with a challenge!?
The Email:
Excellent - yes, lets organise a night out starting with sunset at theOrbit Lounge!!!!
I'll organise it - just let me know when you want to do it and I'llorganise it. We can make a really nice night of it - start there fordrinks, go out for dinner in the Rocks, then drinks/dancing at theArgyle!
If you don't mind spending some money on a 'fine dining' restaurant ofSydney, then we could even have dinner there. The restaurant is calledthe Summit - very famous, and very good but rather expensive. I mighthave a discount with my entertainment card...
OR we could go to Orbit lounge for drinks, then Cafe Sydney (anotherunbelievably good Sydney restaurant but also expensive) for dinner and Idefinitely have a discount on my entertainment card with them and it'sdefinitely a really really good discount. (...)
Check it out
Anyway still after heaps of good bye dinners, coffees, lunchs, presents :-), rodas, take downs (this one deserves a post) Nadia couldn't help herself and organized a surprise at Orbit Lounge!

When I walked by this Dalloyau vitrine/window, temptation called....
I sat down and ordered the mini version of the Torbion Caramel . Nothing was going to come between me and this hunk of glossy caramel (filled with whipped cream I didn't eat - I hate whipped cream.)
The thought never entered my head to buy it and eat it later either. 
Can you resist temptation when it calls? 
Or are you one of those people with self-restraint? Do you think, "I'll come back later if I still want it and get it".
Ice cream is an instant gratification food. Ice cream won't wait around for you to come back later. It's an "I want it now" food and thank gawd for that. 
Ah...the smell of it. 
When chocolate beckens, who resists? Some can. Even I, Queen of Instant Gratification, can resist chocolate... 
If I have a refrigerator full of it, say just after a chocolate show. There's safety in numbers. And I can resist macarons if they're wrapped up tight in the freezer. Out of sight - out of mind...
Magnolia's cupcakes I waltze by with ease. I've never cared for cake or icing, so personal tastes effect issues of temptation.
There's an extensive article in the current NEW YORKER on just this subject. 
When Pres. Obama admonished Wall Street It was my new motto for a week or so...
Granted visual beauty plays a big part in my downfall... 
And would I, could I trade a peach for a macaron? 
What about you? Do tell all s.v.p.
Munch...munch...munch...Aren't week-ends for sinning?BONJOUR WEEK-END!!!!
