Food vs Sketch at the Feedbox Markets in Scarborough
Walking down to the Feedbox market in Scarborough on weekends, the aroma of the Moroccan Shakshuka always whispers my name in the sea breeze as I approach the bright blue tents. Torn between wanting to sketch and wanting to delight my morning taste buds, I opted for delighting my taste buds and sketching my breakfast […]
A Solo Duck at Hong Kong BBQ House
I had a craving that needed to be satisfied and given that my husband isn’t a big fan, actually not a fan at all of Chinese bbq meats, and my eating buddies (my parents) eat Chinese bbq meats at least once a week, I had no one who could share my delights at a drop […]
Loosey Goosey at Hillarys
It was such a beautifully sunny , yet cool Winter’s day when I caught up with a fellow sketch buddy for a much over due sketch date . Up till now I had been very precious with my sketchbook and would only draw in it one way and I tried to be as neat as […]
Foodie Friday : A Recipe Sketch Gift
One of the regular doggie park people was due to leave Perth and head back home to the US with her fiance (who’s from New Zealand) but met when they were in London, and their doggie Wolfie (who’s a Jack Russell). They’ve been living here for over two years and now it was time to […]
Getting Juicey
Sometimes in the mornings we walk down to the beach front to get a cheap brekky. I have to admit I regretted ordering fried eggs on toast with bacon , which is why I think I much prefered sketching my fresh juice. Do you have a favourite juice?
Vietnamese Brunch with Mum and Dad
Beginning my Foodie Friday series with Vietnamese brunch with my parents was the best is to start. I think we ate everything on the table that day. Update: Unfortunately this restaurant on William Street in Northbridge is now permanently closed and a Japanese restaurant is now in it’s place, which we are yet to try.
Lunch Sketch at Viet Hoa
Being Chinese, I’m often out eating and trying out new places to eat. It seems to be a past time for Asians. In my case I’m frequently eating out with my elderly, young at heart and happy go lucky parents. Today’s lunch date with mum at dad was at Viet Hoa in Northbridge. You can […]
The Hardware Cafe
I had no idea that this was the name of this new cafe in Scarborough, actually I still don’t know if this is it’s name! There’s no signage on the front. I’m so oblivious to things sometimes. With all the hardware hanging around I still didn’t realise that this was the Hardware Cafe , nor […]
Foodie Friday : Banana & Date Smoothie (Keeping it Simple)
I’ve been doing Koosje Koene’s Draw it Like it’s Hot e-course and one of our assignments is to draw a recipe. So here’s my very simple banana and date smoothie recipe. I had heaps of fun creating it and just playing. It’s like being a kid in primary or better still pre-primary again. Playing with […]
