The sleek geeks had yet another mini-break last weekend. This time we headed North for a couple of days of sun (luckily!), sand and surf. I think our break could be officially classified as the "bad for my diet" weekend. (photos)

  • Friday

    Dinner: It started with steak and cocktails on Friday evening at Ribs and Rumps Steak & Grill @ Gordon. While we opted for normal sized meals, we were startled to see the size of the meals being delivered to other tables. Plate sized steaks floated past, always accompanied by a exclamation from our table.. "did you see the size of that!!!". I'm surprised they don't have a "live cow" option on the menu (Bring me a live cow over to the table. I'll carve off what I want and ride the rest home!)

  • Saturday

    Breakfast: sustain with light milk and a English muffin with jam (not too bad, jess! keep up the good work!)

    Lunch: a carpet picnic - ham, avocado, tomato, cheese sandwiches, and prawns (another gold star.) Sarah was extremely concerned with getting all the poo out of each prawn. Apparently Canadian prawns don't have poo veins

    Afternoon tea: Frangelico and lime, hot chips and Cold Rock icecream (oh no!). I finally got a chance to try Cold Rock. They take a scoop of icecream, place it on a cold grill, and then mix in some toppings for you. Sue aptly described it as a "manual McFlurry". I had caramel icecream with a snickers mixed in, yum!

    Dinner: cocktails, pizza, more pizza, alcohol, more alcohol (danger! danger! will robinson!). The Bartender at the Break Bar valiantly tried to mix Kiwi and Lychee Caipiroskas for the Cocktail junkies. Although, they weren't up to Pyrmont Point standards, we applaud him for his efforts (hurrah!).

  • Sunday

    Brekkie: eggs, bacon, mushrooms and pancakes. Yes, it was time to give into the cravings. In return, I promised not to eat for a whole week to atone for the weekend's sins.

  • Exercise

    shopping, very strenuous; frisbee and Canadian football on the beach; reading, I read two whole books, turning those pages is hard work! Walking up and down the hill from the house to the beach and shops. We did this four or five times and it was a very steep hill!
