It was going to be Wednesday, but Wednesday got away from me.
Let's see, I
Image: best breakfast ever - toast with Dad's marmalade; toast with Vegemite, avocado, cracked pepper and lemon juice; and Ruby Grapefruit juice and soda water.
- I did a bit of adulting on the weekend. I hired a car (courtesy of fuel supply instability, economy and prudence) when this last weekend was planned.
- I learned how to swap my brain around to European mode for lights and indicators vs windscreen wipers.
Image - electronic flyer for Staerstone by H. k. Stubbs
- I went to an art show. (Lost and Found by a friend. I will get her link - it closed last night)
- I visited my aunt.
- I saw a friend from pre-'Salina days who is launching a book.
Image - buckwheat wraps for Saturday's breakfast at a creekside cafe
- I saw friends from University days and ate very, very well indeed.
- We discussed many things and watched Northern Exposure and I am so very grateful that I have been blessed with such friends

- I took a tour of my aunt's future home
Image - oven-roasted Barramundi with broccoli, onion, zucchini, sweet potato, and tomato. The lemon wedges were from my tree.
- I got lost coming out of a freeway-side service centre with an open fast food option and spent half an hour of dark roads turning back on themselves time and again - the Traveston Triangle
Image - greens including basil, rocket and spinach freshly harvested and dressed with scrambled eggs, grilled haloumi and stall-bought chutney.
- PSA don't drive a tiny NSW hire car in the dark on the M1 (or Bruce Highway) after peak hour on a weeknight when the truckies consider it theirs.
- I eventually relearned how to swap my brain back right to local mode for windscreen wipers vs lights and indicators.
- I saw my brother and my Dad.
- I was reader at an event at the beautiful little bookshop that also hosts the poetry and my book-club.
- And I signed up for the gym with Paris. It's May Day tomorrow.
What did I miss?

Look at all that delicious food (and foodie items in the bookstore)! You're torturing me with the grapefruits. Once I realized I can't have them anymore, I've craved them!
You didn't miss much! Action packed. Well, fortunately you missed the truckies..
I think that was quite enough. When last in England in a hire car, ten times I accidently turned the wipers before the correct indicator stalk began to sink in to my automatic actions. After a break in driving, I was nearly back to square one.
