Postcard From Australia #5

Arrived in Melbourne Thursday night. A bowl of pasta and glass of wine at Di Stasio for dinner. More on that when I get home. Prahan Markets today and we picked up supplies for a picnic. Great Serrano Jamon and an excellent Brie. Meeting friends for lunch in St Kilda tomorrow.
Missing you and wish you were here.
Hugs
Barbara

Lovely to hear from you.

Bowl of pasta sounds good.

sounds lovely! have fun!

I remember you posting about that kind of ham being a favorite!
I looked up "Prahan Markets" and was delighted to find a *recipes* section, not huge but interesting.

Soooooo jealous right now - Prahan Market was one of my favorite places in Melbourne, not least for their incredibly good 'end of the day' prices making great food affordable on a student budget.

And St-Kilda at this time of year must've been gorgeous!

Have a wonderful time in Melbourne, Barbara and Bryan. If you have a spare couple of kgs in your suitcase, think about buying Maggie Beer's just-published cookbook, Maggie's Harvest - it's absolutely beautiful. Embroidered fabric cover, gorgeous photos and fantastic recipes. I love it already!

Hiya Barb! Good to see you're having a lovely time - frankly, with the diabolical nor'westers savaging NZ, you're better off out of it!

Send me a ticket so I can join you Barbara! Sounds like you're having a great time!!

Barbara, wish I was there too! Have a great time, and if you see any (real) baby puggles, say hello for me!

Glad to be able to read your blog again, Barb. Have a great holiday!

hope that you are enjoying your stay in Melbourne. We've had a couple of really lovely days, haven't we? (and a couple of shockers too!)
