Valentines Hugs to you!!

Happy Valentine's Day!! I hope you all had a great day yesterday and got totally spoilt!! I did :) Will dropped flowers off to my house when I was out shopping and later when he picked me up for dinner he brought me a card and a box of the most delicate, delicious Handmade chocolates from the Real Turkish Delight shop at Auburn. They're all different flavoured Dark chocolates- creme filled, nut filled, praline etc.... so so so so Yum!! Then he took me out to tea in Newtown.. see what I mean... SPOILT!!
I tried booking into my fave Mexican Restaurant at Glebe but they were booked out til 9pm so we decided to just turn up to Newtown and wander til we found a restuarant we liked. It was raining pretty hard but it was nice to be walking together searching the restaurants for something we both felt like eating. We ended up at Grub and Tucker and it was delicious!! We totally recommend it to anyone eating in Newtown. It's modern Australian food and is fantastically priced. I had "Lamb 3 Ways" which was 2 cutlets, a fillet and a Shank on a bed of creamy mashed potato with green beans and basil pesto for $24 (check out the size of it!!). The best bit was the Salt and Peper Sweet Breads on top (like deep fried Salt and Pepper Fat... mmmm...LOL!) It was easily a $35 meal, but was only $24 so Woo Hoo {dancin!!} Will had Crispy Skin Pork Belly served with a tiger prawn, scallop and bacon salad- $22. Wow, he cleaned up his plate good!! Then started on mine too {wink!} We tried to go to the Guylian Cafe at the Rocks for dessert but after we got stuck in traffic at the north end of the City we abandoned ship and had a Maccas Sundae on the way home. Lol! It was a great night!
We've got a Wedding today for one of our work friends. It's a Middle Eastern affair, so will be interesting for a Chinese boy who's only been to 2 other weddings and an Aussie girl not used to eating Kebabs and Rice!!
