Eating or Shopping? How about both?

Hey Friends! Happy Monday over here in Oz! Here's a picture of a cutie to start your week off right: Destiny wearing Matt's military cover.



As the Title of this blog says, "Eating or shopping? How about both?"...When my sister was here for her visit, we did a whole lot of eating and shopping...even eating while we were shopping or was it shopping while we were eating?!? The above picture is one of those times. A quick stop off for some yummy gelato at Canberra Centre.



We also did some learning and fun activities while she was here. We took a trip over to Questacon, the science center! Here Addi is playing in the construction area. She loves her hard hat :)



She also loves "driving" the cars and filling them up with petrol.



Then, it was on to more eating: our chocolate tasting platter shared between us all! It's so yummy! The front middle thing (that looks like hair) is chocolate fairy floss...for the Americans reading this: chocolate cotton candy!



Auntie Bekki and Destiny as we ate and shopped again. This time around it was macadamia nut slice and a cuppa while we shopped at DFO, an outlet mall here!



Another day, another restaurant! This time around it was Turkish food. Yum! Sweet potato Falafel. oooooh sooooo goooood!



The girls at a shopping center "riding" the car with Bananas in Pajamas! (If they were here, they would both scream "my favorite!"...they love the little 5 minute Bananas in Pajamas show on tv here.



Now it's time for some cupcakes in Gold Creek! Yum-O!



Addi likes the frosting :)
{She takes after her MOM!}



Here is my beautiful garden that my sister helped me plant. Matt helped put the stakes in. Thanks guys for your help! Just the other day, I was babysitting a little boy and he told me that he like how my tomatoes were. He liked the wire around them! :)



Right after planting was finished, we were blessed with a bit of rain and a full double rainbow! Fantastic! I'll take that as a sign!



Once again, we find ourselves eating! Max Brenner! Yummy!



Chocolate covered strawberries for the little cuties!




As you can see, there are many fine places to shop and eat in Canberra! Please do come for a visit and I'll take you shopping and eating! ha! My sister and I had a blast while she was here and we really enjoyed our special meals out and finds at the shopping centers!






I hope this blog finds you enjoying some yummy food of your own (treat yourself to something delish today!)






Enjoy today!
