Exhaustion. Sleep - come to me now...

Boo.  Sick with a cold. Spent the day alternating between the lounge room and bed.  Utter exhaustion.

Had dinner at Bar Lourinha yesterday.  It was packed as usual but not as packed as I was expecting for a Friday night.  Only had to wait for around 20 minutes, and we had drink on the couches which meant the time went quickly!  Food was good, but not as mind-blowingly excellent as I'd remembered. We had prawns in butter, whole sardines, lamb and israeli couscous, creamy mushrooms, mussels, a baked chorizo and egg dish, and churros for dessert.  The mushrooms were fantastic - button mushrooms fried in cream and finished with a crunchy garlicky breadcrumb mix - superb.  Sardines were a bit terrible to eat, although the second try was better once we removed the backbone.  Prawns were just ok - too big for eating in the shell, but too small really to be worth the effort to peel and eat.  The mussels were probably the winner for the night - they were plump and juicy and came in a tangy white wine/cream sauce. 

Parentals went out partying tonight, so had dinner with bro at Yami Yami.  Interesting dynamics now, we get on better than we used to.  I guess it shows that we're all grown up now.
