foodwink does lee and me.

another sneaky re-blog as my cadbury expose didn't quite pan out. sorry emma, too late now, defs next yr. it unfortunately didn't quite get past the r and d stage (research and development for you non sg1 people).

anyways moving on.... yesterday i was trolling through my favourite blogs and low and behold in my fave food one was a sweet post on my work. how cool is that?! loving LOVING my new job, great atmosphere to dine and work in with awesome people who are really passionate about the things im obsessed with.

foodwink also are a goldmine of local information on the best places for breakfast, lunch and dinner. check their lee and me post here.

decisions decisions equals problems problems

so i have sorta tricked myself into facing problems with me, my life and what i want to be different. so this all led to changing my uni degree. arts central told me it was as easy as one form, turns out they are idiots and have proceeded to completely frak up my academic life!! gah! these are smart people, how can they possibly be THAT incompetent?

so now i've started the fixing process. will no one answer my emails? seriously, i cant handle this. being so unsure of what im meant to be doing in 3 bloody weeks! oh and ALSO guess what, the first yr psych co-ordinator isn't back from holidays. uni goes back in 2 weeks and he is still skiing in switzerland! well i have had enough! crying and violent phone calls are my next tactical manoeuvre and if that doesn't work i will drink heavily and shout at you!

but on the only bright side, i do really love my new job! though, it is going to hurt my bank balance with pretty clothes just upstairs. i already have my eye on a $260 pair of nudie jeans. i need them for work, they are essential, honestly!

espresso is for sissies

well not really, but siphon brewed coffee is AMAZING. according to coffeegeek.com it is set to make a well deserved come back. developed in france and germany some 160 years ago, this way of brewing coffee is remarkably simple yet the flavour that it is able to extract from the bean (especially single origin coffees) is phenomenal. today, at my hopefully new place of employment, i was showed how the method of brewing works. the consistency and flavour is comparable to a long black but, that just does not do it justice. if you dont like strong coffee or vibrant flavours then this might not be for you, give it a try anyway.

looking at the whole percolating set-up it does make you feel like you might need an advanced degree in chemistry to operate it, but it is actually really easy....even i can do it. if you can even get your hands on one for your own home i can not recommend them enough.

all i can say is ask ya friendly neighbourhood barista, for a cup of this magical liquid.
