Life lately

So, life lately hasn't been too exciting. We've cut down on the amount of doughnuts that we eat in aid of our waistlines so no fun doughnut pics, and we aren't doing too much on weekends in a bid to save a little bit of cash where we can. We also forget to take pics when we do, do things! Mel has started tutoring a little girl on Saturday mornings. She's in Grade One at an international school and she speaks English fluently. So far the tutoring has been really easy as it's basically just chatting and facilitating homework, definitely worth the extra money!

Mel loves making breakfasts on weekends, as there isn't much time to do anything of significance before work. She usually makes eggs in some form, or banana pancakes! These have become a firm favourite in the Goldstone Jr. household. We love carbs in this household, so there's definitely flour in them, no banting here! Pair them with honey, peanut butter, and bacon and you have a winner!

We had a super lazy day last Sunday, and we literally didn't leave the house once! By the time dinner rolled around we were still lazy, so we decided to order in rather than cook. We tried out a restaurant called Tango Juice and it was amazing! Ross ordered a 'build-it-yourself' sandwich, where there are lots of options of toppings to choose from. Mel got the lamb pita with tzatziki which was incredible. They'll definitely be top of our list next time we order some food.

Mel is busy teaching her kiddos about food at the moment, so in a bid to get them interested, she took some pictures of her school lunch - foods that the students can recognise. The lunch below was a really good one, as often the soup isn't to our liking and cucumber and tomato aren't the norm. We are very lucky as foreigners, that we can request trays to be made up for us of the foods that we like, as often the choices aren't great.
