Vic Market & Jud's Picnic (18.08.07)

After 4 hours of sleep I woke up Sat morning around 7:30am and couldn't get back to sleep (must've been the effects of the jager bombs lol)! So I eventually got out of bed and got ready to go to the Vic Markets with Ginger and Junee as there was absolutely no food in the house. Ginger & Bec stayed over at Ahman's place so I had to give them a morning call to get them to come home...which took forever! A couple of hours later they finally rocked up, with Ahman's super kwaii golden retriever "Beanie"! So we slowly made our way into the CT for some Market shopping!

Once we got to the market, first things first....breakfast! Being totally unhealthy as we were...we got Churros and coffee (go Coffea...they have the best coffee in town)! Then we made our way through the vegie ales and got our weekly dose of fruits & vegies! Everyone was high on adrenalin coz the whole time we were rushing to get everything done within 2 hours due to parking reasons...and also I had Jud's picnic at lunch time too! Once our mission was accomplished...we rewarded ourselves with some American doughnuts....man...my junk food eating had begun before Jud's party and it was destined to continue for rest of the day!

So I got dropped off at Jud's place after the markets with the orange cake that I had bought. SeBear, Markdot and Little Sarah were already there when I arrived. I also met Dave, Jud's new Canadian room mate. After Gemma and Jo showed up we packed up all the food (there were heaps!) and started to make our way to the nearby park. However, about 3 meters up the road...it started to drizzle...so we were like "hm....this isn't good". It also looked very cloudy thus we thought that it would be a safer option if we just had an indoor picnic at Jud's place. So we layed down the picnic rug in the living room and layed out all the food. There was a roasted chicken, lots of dips and bread rolls provided by Jud, Markdot's rich chocolate biscuits & shapes, SeBear's potato salad, my orange cake and Little Sarah made brownies. Mukie showed up late with lots more junk food. There was no shortage of food, that's for sure! Man...I wish I had my camera, Ginger had left it in Ahman's car so I didn't have it for the day :( Whoever has got photos please email it to me (Markdot?)!

After stuffing ourselves we all headed to the park to have a kick around with Mukie's footy and we also had a bit of fun with Jud's freesbie. Dave the Canadian was quite fascinated by the Aussie football...so he and Mukie had a good bonding session on "how to kick and bounce an Aussie footy". I was wearing thongs....and didn't want to hurt my feet as I was to go up to the snow for some serious snowboarding the next day, so Markdot was kind enough to offer me her shoes...So she was wearing my thongs with her socks, true Japanese style (lol) Thanx Markdot :) Eventually evening came...and we decided that it was a good idea to go! We headed back to Jud's place and ate more food, topping it all off with a nice juicy watermelon! Afterwards I scored a lift with Mukie (Yay, thanx Mukie)!

So I got home around 8pmish I think....and after doing mum duties, I had to prep myself for going up to Mt Buller the next day...this took quite a while...making lunches...finding equipment and clothing.....so by the time I hopped into bed...no need to say it was quite late...and again....I was destined to be sleep deprived......
