Christmas reindeer in Docklands...
While this is a beautiful Christmas structure, I just wonder why a deer figure was chosen for a water + boats precinct...Why not some more imaginative, context connected structure? https://t.co/YCOPANaWG9

Biscottini Café Bar...
Shout out to Biscottini Café Bar Restaurant, Mornington, Vic. Last Monday with a friend for morning tea. Great coffee + raisin toast - topped with berries+strawberries+custard dollop, all drizzled with honey. Who knew humble raisin toast could transform into an exotic experience?
