We Have Been Eating Out Alot Lately

Well, we have been eating out at least once a day/night these past couple of weeks. Life seems to be getting really flat out and soooo much busier than just being in the studio making things and going to and fro school.

Last week we went to the Gelato Bar at Bondi Beach

We had alot of Eastern European Dishes which included Veal Knuckle (Mr Mettle's favorite); I had a Russian Dish called 'Pilmeny" which looks like a flat Tortelini, but isn't. That was stuffed with veal and it is eaten with a mustard/sourcream/vinegar sauce and is delicious!

Lots of yummy salad and fresh Sydney Oysters were also gulped/slurped down.

THE VERONICA EARRINGS

The way some of my work comes about is through making a piece for someone that I know, like for example THE VERONICA EARINGS. I made these specially for my friend Veronica. She was having some surgery and I thought that it would be a nice little surprize.

These enabled me to come up with with my new hoop/hook, which I'm sure it wont be long befor other jewellers will be doing the same as it always happens in my industry...

My daughter and I just got back from Veronica's (& family) house where they were entertaining friends & family. Certainly looked like a fun time was had by all.
