Today is my very first Australian birthday! Here’s how I spent my day…
~ Breakfast under butterfly bunting
~ Cat sitting for my colleague which meant a cat shaped hot water bottle for most of the day
~ Cake breaks
~ Visa related paperwork (yes, here we go again, and no, I don’t want to talk about it)
~ Biscuit breaks
~ A delicious Lebanese dinner – all gluten free! – at El Karim in Roseville
(Seriously, I’ve eaten SO well since coming here)
~ More cake breaks
Here’s to 31!
Catch you next year…
-Rachel
Happy Birthday!!! Sounds like you had a fun filled (and cake filled) day! The Lebanese dinner looks super good! And the pattern on your friend’s cat looks so cool!
Happy first Aussie birthday! All the food looks amazing but the Lebanese dinner is pretty much my dream meal!
Happy happy happy birthday!!! A new year in a new home 🙂 That cake looks SO good.
It sounds like you had the best time celebrating your first birthday in Australia! If I’m being completely honest, I wouldn’t mind having the cat shaped heater sitting in my lap all day! And you dinner and all of your cakes look so good! I’m glad that finding gluten free food has been so much better in Australia!
Happy Birthday!!! Wishing you a beautiful day because you deserve it!
