Aussie, Aussie, Aussie

21 Jan

It’s tennis season baby.

I could think of no better way to toast the start of tennis season by watching my beloved city of Melbourne and eat cheesymite  crackers to the grunts and screams of tennis greats.

So who am I rooting for?

Tsonga, Monfils,Isner, Azarenka, Clijsters

I hope by the time this posts Monfils has advanced to the next round. I wish I had the willpower to stay up till 3am watching his match against Wawrinka. He is so much fun to watch.

That looks like it hurts. Ouch.

Moment I loved: Thomas Berdych has a LOUD fanbase. My favorite was when they sang to the tune of “Barabra Steisand” by Duck Sauce:

“oo oo oo ooooooooooo…. Thomas Berdych”

simple. sweet. yet hilarious.

Cheesymite Toastie

With Daiya: hmmm, kinda looks like a poptart
Toasted on a Rye Wasa Cracker with Pepperjack Rice Cheese.

nomnomnom love me some Vegemite but this toastie was calling for a different kind of sliced cheese, perhaps of a swiss variety?

Grocery list, check.

I don’t think I can survive at the grocery store without a list. An organized list.

Well, scratch that. I can survive. A grocery store is like my fifth home, I grew up thinking of the grocery store as a playground or a ‘fun thing to do’.

I will just undoubtedly forgot not just a few things I need without a handy-dandy list, I forget probably the most important thing. Which makes everything else I bought pointless because of that one tying ingredient.

Where do you keep your list? The computer?  handwritten? on your phone?

I’ve always done the handwritten thing, but after the amount of times I leave the list at home…it was time to invest in an iPhone App.

    LOVE tennis! I’m just waiting to watch more of Federer ;)

    Lists – I leave everything behind! I’m awful. I’ve started to leave it out by the door where my keys are…that way I can’t lock up without my keys – and I see it :)

    Ooh…Cheesymite!! I’ve tried marmite before…it certainly is a taste that needs getting used to.

    I’m planning to get an iPhone soon, but I make lists on post-its and stick them to my desk, or the fridge.

      Marmite is the British version of Vegemite.
      But yes, it definitely takes some getting used to but now I can’t get enough of it!

    We keep a grocery list on paper on the side of the fridge. I make all lists on paper.
