It’s pug Friday!
Check out this pug who was terrorised in his own home by a peacock. Poor little fella!

I had a delightful dinner at Wedgetail restaurant in Newtown. It was quite hard to find, nicely tucked away behind trees in Newtown Square, across the road from Newtown Station.
I met my old girlfriends from school there for our annual Xmas dinner. I had found a review in the Good Food Guide, which listed it as the best pizza in Newtown. Big call. I had to try it for myself to be the judge.
We decided to share several dishes, including a mushroom bruscetta, haloumi salad and large pizzas. I had a vegetarian one with goats cheese, parmesan and tomato. We also all had desserts – mine was a lemon tart with roast peach, some kind of gelato and peach granita. Delicious! It was also pretty cheap – ended up being $30 each.
Dog statue out the front. I love how pro-dog the area is. I saw several cuties being walked while I was there, and one adorable little fella who wandered into the restaurant to say hi while his owner waited outside, calling him to come back out.
After the secret Santa present opening and feasting had taken place, we posed for a group photo. Merry Christmas girls! Thanks for a great night 🙂
I took these pics of my beautiful babies yesterday.
I discovered this restaurant on Happy Cow, which has vege restaurants all around the world. Green Gourmet is actually vegan, and has all kinds of funny meat substitutes, and has “not chicken” and so on dishes. Very funny.
Everything was green, including the chopsticks.
The shop front. I risked life – literally – to get this silly pic. I was in the middle of dashing across the Pacific Highway and turned around to take it – in front of on-coming traffic.
It was pretty good! We ordered WAY too much food, including chestnut sang choy bow, which was really great. We scoffed it before having a chance to take pictures…

The eternal question – why squish yourself into a bowl?
Life’s not that bad kitty-cat!
I am in LOVE with this new season Mimco bag. Sigh! Maybe next year … 🙂
I had to fly down to spend a day in Melbourne for work. Apart from the unexpected chill factor, it was a very groovy city that I popped into.
You can’t get hot chocolates like this in Sydney!
Tired and hungry at a funky cafe.
I had the puppies this weekend so Alec and I took them to lunch at The London in Rozelle with some friends. The London is a pretty cool pub – mostly because it allows dogs inside. The food was a bit pricey, but was still nice, and the company was great.
Profile view. I think I must get a pair.
All of the food groups. Sugar, chocolate and fat.
My boscaiola. It was supposed to be with chicken. I asked for it without chicken and they gave me bacon instead. Weird.
Dessert – mousse. It was yummy. Not sure it was $13 yummy, but still good.
Alec and I stopped at San Churro again today for chocolate.
I think I will adopt this as my motto.
The “Hot & Cold” – hot chocolate with white chocolate ice-cream.
Alec tries the “azteca” – it has a bit too much chili in it.
Churros – deep-fried dough with chocolate dipping sauce. Fat with fat. Mmmmmm.
