Sleepy

Have day off tomorrow, looking forward to getting back on the household organisation horse.

On Friday we threw a small party for Midwinter. I overcatered something chronic, so it really was a bit like Christmas with everyone stuffed! It was a lot of fun, and I got to get the decorations out and chase the winter blues away.

Yesterday I did some stockpiling of pantry goods. I visited the Mediterranean Wholesaler on Sydney rd for the first time and had a ball. SOOOO much pasta. I didn't get any this time as we still have heaps at home, but definitely a good place to go in the future! I did get a few kilos of lentils and beans as they were less than half the price I've seen them in supermarkets. Also I got canned tomatoes, ALL the canned tomatoes. I overheard one of the shelving guys telling a newbie employee of African origion to watch the shelves with canned tomatoes like a hawk because they go really quick as "Us wogs can't live without them, mate; air, water, shelter, tomatoes- not necessarily in that order"

Wish I could go ice skating tonight, but I don't have enough of my pocket money left, specially if we're touring the Mountain Goat Brewery tomorrow evening. I've sent my cousin a text to get infor about her dance class tonight as apparently it's only $5. So what I do tonight remains to be seen!

I've been to the Mediterranean Wholesaler too, and I was a little disappointed. They have a wonderful range, and if I was a stickler for quality, I'd definitely buy their bulk pasta, but as I'm a stickler for cheapness, I'm stuck with Safeway's store brand pasta. Which is a pity, because I was really into the idea of coming home with five kilos of pasta.
