A request was made, task accomplished
- my iteration of the classic Sicilian Torta Setteveli āseven veilā cake ā¦ seven layers of chocolate & hazelnuts ā¦ of course I realise I didnāt take any better pictures, and the OCD in me is cringing that I couldnāt make the layers cleaner š #tortasetteveli #pastrylife @spaccio_to
My youngest who frequently canāt (maybe wonāt) wake up for school, woke early, waited for me to wake up & insisted to make me breakfast! He said itās belated Motherās Day treat cos he hasnāt yet done anything for me as I was always at work & today Iām finally home for himā¦..š
awww this is the boy who frequently drives me nuts š¤£ā¤ļø
Such a HUGH yummy sandwich too!!!
Toasted brioche bread
Vegemite (of cos) & shaved butter (ok I added the butter)
lettuce & tomatoes
scrambled-ish egg (his first attempt & he did this while I was still in bed!)
crispy bacon (he came running for me to help finish the frying cos he couldnāt handle the splattering š)
And some avocadosā¦

A much needed getaway with no noisy kids, no chores, no work (hmm) no agenda except to relax & recuperate in a beautiful resort.
Indulged in a spa retreat experiencing my first himalayan salt cave (ātwas a room š), first oxygen bar and enjoying sumptuous meals with a chill dude that puts up with a partner who amongst many other things forgets anniversaries, works too much, drives too fast, orders waaaay too many desserts because she jus has to try almost (almostā¦) every item on the dessert menu šā¤ļø
To all of you who have nagged at me at some point last year to take better care of myself, I hear you, Iāll do better in 2023ā¦ more sleep, less 18hr crazy work days, less butter & sugar (ok maybe this is not possible š), more family time (dearest kids this doesnāt mean more cooking!!), maaaaybe finally find time for a fur kid(s) š¤ā¦. HAPPY 2023 everyone!!!
