The truffle with eggs



I have just had an incredibly relaxing Sunday. After a monster session of cleaning the apartment on Saturday I was ready for very little on Sunday and that’s exactly what we did. I woke early, as I always do, and the first thought that popped into my head was breakfast in bed. I pictured us having a lazy morning, reading the papers and snoozing and then maybe we would contemplate facing the day. So I put my clothes on over my night attire (as you do) and headed to the shop for some fresh bread and eggs. I wanted to whip us up some scrambled eggs with truffles. When I eventually woke J, in preparation for our romantic morning in bed, he told me his brother was about to arrive with his computer which needed fixing. Ohh well, breakfast on the balcony it was then. The eggs were delicious especially when I stirred in a spoonful of Tetsuya’s Truffle Salsa.




When I was out getting the breakfast ingredients I also picked up some flowers. I want the place to look pretty when Mum arrives on Wednesday morning. I’m very, very excited about seeing her as it has been 16 months since we have last seen each other. She has asked me to make reservations for a meal at Tetsuya’s so there will definitely be a post about that extravaganza.




Sydney has been hit by a huge swell for the last couple of days, so we head to Bondi back to check out the massive waves pounding the coastline. They were excellent. There were some mad surfers in the water even though all the beaches have been closed. It looked like they were having an amazing surf but I can’t imagine how difficult it would be to get out passed the break (you can tell I’m not a surfer).




We headed back to the Icebergs Bar to watch the sunset and the waves crashing in over the sea-pool as we enjoyed our G&Ts. It really was a lovely relaxing Sunday.
