Hitting Chapel Street

Dee and I woke up about 9 and headed to Carlisle Street for an awesome breakfast at Las Chicas. Dee recommended the Baked Bean Brekky which was a poached egg on pumpkin polenta bread with home made baked beans. Yum!

From there we drove down to Chapel Street. Our first stop was Lulu Lemon, a groovy yoga clothes store. I went a little nuts and walked out with three workout tops, one pair of crop pants and one pair of full length yoga pants. A pretty good start to our shopping expedition!

We drove further down the street and then wandered up and down Chapel Street. I bought a present for Ross in one of the stores then we continued on down the street looking at the cute boutiques. We stopped at one of Dee's favourite stores, Gorman, and we both walked out with dresses.

We had worked up quite a thirst so we stopped in for a herbal tea (a bit different to our usual cocktails!). We continued on our way for a bit longer. I stopped into Rebel Sport and picked up a few more things. By this time we were exhausted.

On the way home, we picked up some shopping for dinner with the girls tonight. Back at Dee's place, we had a quick bite to eat, relaxed for a while and then started preparing dinner. We had tried to get a whole fish but ended up with fillets of rockling. We made up individual packets for each person with lemongrass, chilli, garlic, ginger, spring onion and fried shallots. Dee made an Asian coleslaw and I made Thai potato salad. Dee also stir fried some greens.

Dee's friends Kendra, Lydall and Anna came over and Dee's housemate Nana was there also. We spent the night chatting, eating the great food and watching a dodgy youtube video of Arni in Rio (very funny!). It was a great night - so nice to see Dee's mates again, great girls!
