Graffiti Girl
What a strange day we had over here! At least the first part of it. We got up late, had some breakfast and decided to watch an episode of Sence8 and wait until the heavy rain would stop. After that episode, and still rain we were just hanging out, playing with our phones a bit and starting to get well, extremely bored hahaha.
We went out for a walk but decided quickly that it was too chilly even though the rain stopped. So we jumped into the car and drove to Summer Hill, an area I never been too for some coffee.Now back home for some inventive tacos.
I improvised this recipe because this is what was in out fridge and non of us felt like going out in the cold for groceries.It turned out to be fantastic. At least if I can judge myself 🙂Prepare the meat as usual, onions, cheese and whatever else you have have. I do recommend the meat to be half pork, half beef. Just tastier that way.
Now, instead of iceberg salad and cucumber and stuff, I made slaw. This way you have an pre-made salad with all the goodies instead of butting them all in bit by bit.Shred all these ingredients into an bowl :
1/2 pink lady apple – 3 dl kale – 3 pickled cucumbers – 1 carrot – 3 dl cauliflower. 2 tbs sour creme – 1 tbs mayonnaise – salt/pepper . Mix and enjoy inside a heated up wrap with the minced meat, tomatoes, onion and salsa.

Comedy show
 
Even though it was drizzling a bit of a rain on and off tonight we had a great time. Took the ferry to Darling Harbour. Neither of us have been down there so it was good to see all the changes. Pretty impressive. After we went to have dinner before the comedy show. I was nervous because I though it was gonna suck so I was secretly preparing my fake laughter. Luckily for us and the rest of the audience they were all great! We laughs alot and no fakes hahah .
The only shitty thing was that the host girl more or less forced us to sit, well you see from the picture…right in the front row!!
We were practically in the damn show.

Monday dinner at Kim & Jackson’s
Last night I was invited to an spontaneous bbq at my friends Kimberly and Jackson’s place in Balmaine. Some of the boys were there as well so it was unfortunate that Ambrose could not make it but he was really sick. Think I gave him some of my germs with all the hugs and kisses I kept giving him even though I was super sick last week.
Kim and Jackson had prepared so damn nice with everything, I can really learn something from how to handle a bbq! Thank you guys for having me 🙂This morning I woke up early and got myself our for my breakfast date with Ida. It was cold and small raindrops were falling, luckily I had my giant winter jacket on that my mom got me and I almost refused to bring here. I told her; its Australia, never gets that cold! I was very wrong…. anyways, like always I had a great time with Ida. I will definitely miss her, I have known her a couple of years now and I was telling Ambrose the other day that Ida is actually one of my favorite people I’ve got to known over the years in Barcelona. She is flying home to Barcelona, in fact her plane more or less just took off so she has has around 30 hours ahead. Safe flight Ida, see you soon in Europe 🙂
Now I am leaving to get back to listening to Prayer by Marianne Williamson. I had a lovely day but quite tiring day at my volunteer place. My neck still does not allow me to “be” myself and move the way I am used to so even though I love being active, I think I have to rest my body tomorrow.

Daniel’s 32nd birthday at The secret Bunker
Sunday nights celebrations!
Its Ambrose’s brother Daniel’s birthday and this was celebrated at an amazing restaurant called “The Secret Bunker”.We first met up with everyone at Rachel and Daniels house because they wanted to play with some flying drome thing or whatever its called. I was babysitting Xavier and Rachel was making Dani’s cake from scratch.
It was a great night to be with everyone. Feels pretty nice to have one family in Europe and now one additional family here in Australia hahaha.
If anyone wants great food this is definitely an recommendation from me. All of us were satisfied with everything we ordered, it was all delicious. I started with oysters and for mane course I had the slow cocked duck. If they have something slow coked or duck at the menu I will almost always order that so this was perfect for me.
The restaurant is located in Charmhaven which is pretty far from the city but we have been there a couple of times before for breakfast and lunch and it has always been great. Although their breakfast and lunch is served outside the “bunker”, in their garden. The dining room is as you might see in the pictures quite odd, it is in fact a bunker. To be honest I though I would feel a bit claustrophobic when we got there but I just enjoyed everything too much.http://www.thesecretbunker.com.au/

River 1st birthday party
Yesterday was such an good day! We drove to the coast to celebrate little River’s 1st year on this planet 🙂
Jacqueline and Wade had organized such an beautiful little picnic by the ocean at Shelly Beach.
Everything was beautiful and so well done, think I’m going to hire Jacqueline for our child’s birthday party 🙂People were dressed up as animals which the children ( and I ) loved. The only weird one was Wade’s costume..That was one creepy papa bear so I had to have a couple of pictures with him to show you. He was even shocked himself that the children were not crying out of fear when they saw him.
Thank you guys for having us on River’s special day!After a couple of hours we were sent home with homemade cupcakes and we finished the day with a BBQ at the house and then whine by an open fire. Beautiful day.

The Theater bar at the end of the wharf
Last night I met up with Ida, Ninnie and some girls from their office for a last night together before Ida fly back to Barcelona. I had a great time, even though I felt really sick all day I did not want to miss this dinner.
Ida messaged me that she would like to meet here, at a place called The Theater Bar down on wharf 4. Its at the Dawes point if you are ever around its pretty great. The atmosphere though, Cant say the same about the food unfortunately.
At the end of the night me and Ida walked over the bridge all the way back to North Sydney, night walks are so relaxing.

Andy’s 30th
We started with a couple of G&T at Bart and Kali’s before heading ( 3 hours late ) to Andy’s part in Woolomolo
In Australia you have to force down a whole large beer while people stand around you watching and cheering you on!??….don’t ask me why. I’m often very confused over here.
Saturday night and it was Ambrose friend Andy’s 30th birthday. Im not gonna lie, we were pretty exhausted from the wedding the night before but sometimes its just; get into the shower, but on lipstick, a dress and force your tired feet into yet another high heals and just…well celebrate!It was really fun, I met alot of people who knew Ambrose and I was actually so proud ( for a lack of a better word) that Ambrose is such an loved person. I have not yet found anyone saying anything bad about him, not once! Well, except for me that is HAHAHA. No but honesty, that’s a pretty cool thing.

Monica & Lachlan’s wedding♡
Here we are getting ready for the wedding at our place. Its not easy getting these people into one decent photo! Except Kali, she is helpful and gets it 🙂
Waiting outside the church for it all to begin.
Hannah was one of the bridesmaids and I think everyone agrees that she looked like a movie star! Pretty Hannah, inside and outside.
Us with Bart & Kali. Ambrose is the best man to Bart on their wedding in December.
People always say the bride is beautiful bla bla bla but Monica was honestly one of the most perfect prides I’ve seen. Everything from the dress, the hair and make-up was spot on! Everyone was swarming her wherever she was hahah. Guess its the life of a bride ( for one day at least)
Lebanese wedding….if you want to sum it up in one world it definitely; FESTIVE. I loved the drums! Told Ambrose while we were dancing that we are definitely having a couple of those amazing drum-men at our wedding for sure!
350 guests and most of us were dancing all night. There is something about Arabic music that makes you happy. I don’t understand a word ( except “Habibi”) but its one of my favorite kind of music to listen to.
My handsome amore♡
All sweaty from dancing we went out to get some air, explore this beautiful venue and pose for pictures 😉
Waiting for our Uber at the end of the night. Monica’s (the bride) father gave me one of the huge centerpieces from the wedding. All white flowers are my favorite so I was pretty excited.
End of a wonderful night. Thank’s a million to Mon & Loc ♡♡♡
This is what happens when you have a lift made of mirrors and you are still hyped from the crazy Lebanese wedding!!
