BLACKBURN AND A SPLIT LIP.

Yesterday we wandered down to one of our favourite cafés, Blackburn. The guys there said that Rory was welcome in as long as he didn't bark and disturb the other customers (fair enough!), challenge accepted said Rory :))) D. and I drank yummy coffees.  And Rory made sure no bad people happened to come near us.  A fun (?) side effect of winter is that my camera completely fogs up every time I walk inside.. makes for a bit of a dreamy effect until I wipe it clean.  I was craving their tuna melt, unfortunately they were out of the pain levain that they normally use but offered to make it on little tortillas instead. Very yummy as well!  Duncan had the mushroom option, the guacamole was made with combava - which we have just learned is the rind of a kaffir lime! Food fact of the day :)))  After lunch we wandered back home for some chill time before work.  Didn't end up being super chill for me as Rory and I had a little accident that led to my lip being split :/ once the bleeding stopped (and the freaking out) it really wasn't that bad, there was just so. much. blood at first.  The rest of the night was spent at work, Rory came with me to pick up the kids at school. I told them that he would stay calm as long as they did, it worked like a charm!! They were soft spoken, calm and did everything I asked without question. Rory turns out to be an amazing babysitter!!  Today we're doing fun stuff like tidying & laundry. (...) Now, time for a cup of tea. Happy Friday loves!
