Dinner for Courtneys pre birthday celebrations


Thought it might be nice to go out to a nice dinner on the eve of Courtney's birthday (and cause I am working tomorrow night) we have been wanting to go to Pony in the Rocks for a while now, so we booked a nice early table and went and had dinner. The restaurant is small, quite quaint and the kitchen is open and not noisy at all... the ambience in the restaurant is quite calming, low lighting and the service spot on.


The menu is divine - so much to choose from... but I chose to have something I have been craving for the last couple weeks, spinach and ricotta pasta.... tortellini... it was homemade pasta and came with sage burnt sugar and pine nuts... oh my god, delicious!! Courtney ordered the lamb cous cous dish and we shared the bubble n squeak... yum yum yum. I am going back for the cheese plate and the tawny port.... who is keen? Ask for Gail the scottish waiter, she was quite witty and entertaining, but also a great hostess and we were defnitely looked after.


We then telepathically decided on going to Lindt for dessert, even though the dessert menu looked divine we felt like a change of location... but Lindt wasn't open, so we found another place across Darling Harbour for dessert... mm cheesecake and hot chocolate!

Fabulous pressie!

Graduation!!


Six months after finishing Certificate IV in Fitness I graduated this evening at Randwick TAFE - was great to see the other classmates and teachers who put up with me (us) for those night classes.


Sera and Courtney came along to help me celebrate and took some good piccies Stayed around for some free juice and sandwiches, talking to the teachers and students before heading off to Newtown to get a nice hot chocolate to celebrate (oh and a brownie.. mmmm)!


Looking forward to the next graduation ceremony, wonder what it will be in!!!
