Hello everyone! Happy Wednesday! How are you going today? Melbourne's weather has been crazy today, going from sunny in the morning to hailing sideways throughout the day, back to a sunny afternoon, and then freezing again in the evening. What's the weather like in the place where you live? Let me know in the comments today.
Today was my last office day before I leave my role so they had a little morning tea send off for me and gave me a card which was really nice of them! It's definitely a very bittersweet moment but the right decision for my health. And as Luke keeps saying, the bills will get paid so don't stress ahaha. After work, Luke and I had our Wednesday night date night and we went to Ombra in the City - https://www.ombrabar.com.au/ for World Pasta Day as they die a lovely pasta set menu to celebrate pasta day. It was absolutely delicious. It was $55AUD pp for 5 dishes + dessert (and then drinks on top). Definitely felt like we had more food than we paid for, which is always a good sign.
So delicious. I can't remember what all the pastas were but a range of different things and I loved the pistachio cannoli. It was also pretty funny that a waiter accidentally broke a wine glass (total accident) at another couple's table, which he laughed off and apologised but they seemed so pretentious about the whole ordeal. Anyway, when the table was cleaned up and ready for the next people, the people who came and sat there said to the waitstaff that was the exact table they sat at last time they were there. Also kudos to all the staff there, they are always so lovely (we've been there before). I highly recommend going there if you like Italian food!
Anyway, I am writing today's blog as we head home on the train because I want to have a quick shower before bed and have some me time. I always forget that this blog site has its own app I can do that for. It's pretty cool.
Tomorrow I am just going to allow myself to sleep in and not worry about having to do anything as tonight I've got to take my iron and B12 supplements also so I think a sleep in for my RDO is in order.
Here's a cute canva design I made for World Pasta Day. I hope you're all eating pasta today! We definitely did.
For today's question, I want to know, what is your favourite type of pasta? Let me know in the comments below. For me it's 100% gnocchi and I want to learn to make pasta one day. I've got the kitchen aid, just need to get the pasta attachment for it! That'd be so cool 🥰
That's all for Wednesday!
Have a great day/evening, or just whatever time of day it is where you are in the world.
Much love,
Ash xx
I love all pasta but my favourite is probably gnocchi, although starting to really love the stuffed pastas like tortellini and ravioli, I'm hungry now 😋
