indulge, relax, enjoy....


These are from January, we celebrated a friend's birthday with long lunch at Hickory's Run. Actually, we had such a good time that we went back again for another birthday lunch a fortnight after the first one.
The food was delicious, the atmosphere relaxed & the coffee wonderful (these photos are from our second visit - I forgot the camera first time round!)

Lunch...
potato spun prawns, pizza (not pictured), 'overseer's long lunch' - cheese, olives, fruit, crackers

Dessert...
cheesecake with quandong, muntrie mud cake, quandong tart, bush tucker icecream (not pictured)

& of course, coffee...

hopefully we'll find an excuse to visit again :)

bird life...


a few more from the zoo...





the first & last photos were taken through cage wire, the second & third in a big aviary which we walked through & the flamingo just had a fence.

you can find other zoo posts here, here & here :)

up in smoke...

smoke 4 ed

...but don't worry, it's only the binder...



I took these last time I fired some pmc in my kiln, the light through the smoke was just lovely.


(This is as the binder burns off at about 260C)
