  • Zensation tea house

    So this weekend I went to Zensation, after I was asked the question, “which is better, The Tea Centre or T2?” and the answer that good old Google gave me was “ZENSATION”

    The only thing that I wasn’t sure about was the fact that they don’t sell black teas, only the asian stuff. However, when I got there, it didn’t matter, because the place was so awesome looking with an awesome dog looking after the place.

  • Hot/cold Dyson

    So I just found out Dyson now makes an air multiplier that does hot AND cold. That is my dream come truueeee!

    I must have one.

    Although I agree with my brother that it is not the prettiest design, but meh

  • TGV brains

    I’ve decided I’m going to try and coin the term “TGV brain” because I think it sounds cool. I told my brother and he thought I was silly, since he figures that it’s too obscure. But that’s the best bit, because I love being obscure so that no one understands me ๐Ÿ™‚ I got it from the crazy people on TV who can deduce things super ultra fantastic quick.

    Also I would love to collect all different types of teas and brew them cause it’s cool.

     

  • Jugemu Shimbashi

    So I’ve been here 3 times, and I agree with online reviews that this is a hideously overpriced Japanese restaurant, but the food is so beautifully good that the cost is justified. I really like the fact that it’s two restaurants in one as well. It’s no ordinary noodle/ramen/sushi shop – instead they do soba and okonomiyaki. Mmmmmmm

  • Vampirachnids etc.

    The other night I had a fantastic dream where I had to save the world yet again from the neverending forces of evil. My special powers this time round included invisibility, flight and the ability to dissipate into a gas/steam-like substance. I was on the hunt for floating pieces of magical bronze armour while evading the detection of enemies who patrolled each area. The first piece I touched was easy, and it immediately evaporated. I still had to get out of there quickly, since touching one took me to another plane where I had to escape a dense cloud of explosive pink orbs.

    The second (and last) piece I had to extinguish was much tougher to do, as the patrol here was an ice lady. As I rushed towards the armour, I conjured ice around her neck and threw her into some nearby water, because fighting ice with ice was totally the logical and correct thing to do. I may have had a sidekick at this point, as I tried to then freezeย the ice ladyย in the water. I was most definitely a genius in my dream. GENIUS.

  • Reaffirmation of eccentricity

    This post is just to confirm that I am the ultimate genius for making an all powerful entity that actually has a vegetable peeler mode.

    THAT IS ALL.

  • Aeropress!

    This week I finally managed to summon the courage (i.e. work the sorcerous voodoocraft) to visit Swallow and get the brewstation goodies. I’m always terrified that if I order fancy coffee, the baristas will start talking about crazy flavour profiles that I simply don’t understand.

    We got lucky this week since they were already in the middle of making an aeropress coffee, so I just took my time to stare at it, all the while thinking “YES THIS IS THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY TO SAY HEY LETS TRY THAT.” So we ordered our aeropresses and sat down at the table.

  • OMG my blog dieded ;_;

    It broke and everything exploded.

    I will be melting my mind trying to restore things ๐Ÿ™‚

    In other news I ate an awesome rhubarb pavlova from Bill’s in Darlinghurst today. The cream offset the tartness of the rhubarb very nicely, and the meringue was made with brown sugar, which was different. The added honey I think wasn’t necessary, but did add another bit of flavour to it. Now my taste for pavlova has been forever snobbified!

  • Glitter bottle awaits

    I AM NOT PREPARED. I don’t know what I’m saying. Also, my brain hurts!

    My brother’s inverted lens is awesome though ๐Ÿ™‚

     

  • BLEGH CAMPOS AND ITS COFFEE

    I don’t get it. I just don’t like Campos coffee. Not even at Campos itself. But I have no idea why!

    Random rant is random, with more stuff to come later.
