MOTHER'S DAY 2013

Find your height, I think I'm not in the correct place

My family didn't book in any restaurant for the Mother's Day. That's what we are. For casual occasions, we want an "on-the-spot" decision. Except on a PARTY, when you need to distribute invitations at least 4 to 2 weeks in advance. So, on 12 May, Sunday, Mother's Day we almost end up in Maccas for dinner coz all the restaurants my family rang up were booked up. There's this Swan Restaurant that I wanted to go years ago but when we searched up, they're sort of Vietnamese Restaurant. I was not feeling Vietnamese that day so they had to find somewhere else. Oh, our options are limited coz we only have 7-seater car. We could only stay here in Penrith, it was already 6:00 pm and we have to go to the movies still, and also considering restaurants kitchen closes at 9:00 or sometimes 10:00. Thank God, we were accommodated by The Outback Steakhouse. But there was a little bit wait. That's fine as long as we can have a fine dining on that night rather than fast food. Of course, I did not cook. It was my day!

Bloomin Onion - fave starter - $9.95

We were rushing, we have to be at Hoysts Moviehouse by 9:00 pm. Instead of starting the meal with starter, then main and dessert, we ordered all at the same time and told them to serve all at the same time. Our long table was full that other customers were looking at us. Hahaha! We finished them all, eating like Military, thank goodness, we didn't end up bloated.

Dessert Sample Trio - Chocolate Thunder, Fresh Fruit Pavlova

and Sticky date pudding - $17.95

We were on time for the late night show. We were the only ones in the theater, it was like "exclusive" for us. Hehehe! We watched Ironman 3 with popcorn and frozen drinks. It's not really my type of movie but my family liked it especially my husband. Anyway, we all had fun...simple celebration, simple life....Harold, Heinrich and Harvey paid everything.
