15 minutes to save the world

Had lunch at 15 minutes today, this nice cafe at Lasalle. I really liked the place, it’s big and cold (it’s been blazing hot here, BLAZING!!). The food didn’t disappoint, most places tend to be a let down, new establishments especially.

They serve sandwiches, pasta, pizzas, salads, they have one burger and fish&chips as well. Coffee’s cheap.


The wings were good for $3


Ben had fish & chips, there was a tinge of ginger in the fish – a little twist, good kind of twist


Spicy shrimp aglio olio for me!

Something was done right about this eatery, maybe it’s the spaciousness combined with food that pleases me. (I’m having this ‘moment’ right now whereby i like being in a huge space.) I also keep harping on how much bad food is out there so i get happy when i dine somewhere decent. Well i’m writing with the energy level of a granny so maybe my happiness isn’t coming through as much as i’d like but really, i like this place and i’m going back!!!!!

Two drinks, one night

Not feeling wordy tonight, i’m sleepy but i have work to finish so imagine my state of mind.


rosé wine after dinner


new shopping mall – orchard central – one of the many new ones with a gazillion light bulbs. aren’t we the generation trying to save our world and environment now?


came home, made lattes – i felt a little crazy for whisking hot milk into foam but i did yes!


boo!

after this, i’m gonna have to buy little cups for coffee. those that come with a saucer.

Sweet Sarah

Sarah dropped off this wonderful jar of cookies (almost all gone now) this afternoon. You can see what she was up to all day on her blog! I get extra tingly when friends acknowledge my boyfriend, he loved them cookies Sarah, the jar’s on his table. If anyone should open a brick-and-mortar store, it’s this lady. Her attention to detail shames mine a million times over.

I’m having a working-weekend this week but at the rate i’m going… i need a four-day-weekend! It’s so hard to get in the mood i tell ya. Well i’m leaving you with some links in the meantime!

• Antipodean (am a huge fan!) is having their annual sale so head down to Holland Village

• I’ve only started reading camp comfort for two weeks now but i love love love the blog so so so much

• If you’re in West Hollywood, let’s trade places because i’d die to see this Barack Obama exhibition

• Lastly, I don’t know how many of you readers are boys. My boyfriend developed SUBERNOVA, a project management software for freelancers. I say it’s a boy thing because most girls like their moleskine + post its + to-do lists. I’m using SUBERNOVA myself right now and it’s so useful for my work-work plus he’s gotten a lot of wonderful feedback which is incredible, am so proud of his work. I thought perhaps i could reach a different group of people through my blog, spread the word that such a tool exists for freelancers!
