A fun evening at St Kilda beach with @movinbed, Australia's first beach bed cinema. Tucked in, comfy and cozy, we watched a beautiful Melbourne sunset with drinks and food delivered straight to our bed. And then we watched 'The Addam's Family' under a starry summer night sky.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Only until Feb 23rd, so book your bed today!

No matter the angle/perspective/direction.....the @sydneyoperahouse is a spectacular sight to behold. But there's so much more you can learn about this architectural wonder when you take a guided tour.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We had an excellent guide who was so knowledgeable and passionate about the Opera House; she offered an in depth understanding of its history and how this iconic structure was finally completed after a tumultuous journey. We had access to the performance arenas, theatres and insights about unique architectural details that we might otherwise have never known about.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Truly a world wonder.....

Ever since I came across the 'East Indian Bottle Masala' on @mariagorettiz cooking channel, it has become a staple blend in my spice cupboard. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Apart from using it to season a variety of curries, I also use it to make a special marinade for fried fish. Like this recipe, where steaks of Trevally was marinated using this special spice blend and then shallow fried till crusty outside but soft and juicy inside. Recipe link in bio.....

The Dogman Sculpture by world renowned artists, Gillie and Marc at St. Collins Lane.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Installed in 2018, but I got to see this massive bronze statue only about a month ago. The artists, Gillie and Marc, created this sculpture in honour of the 'Year of the Dog'. Apparently the Chinese word for apple is 'ping' which also happens to be the word for peace. Dogs are also known for harmonious relationships with humans from all walks of life, without any kind of discrimination in the name of sex, religion, class or race.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So the Dogman holding the apple stands for harmony, love and togetherness, to spread the message of diversity and acceptance to make a better world happen.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you seen this sculpture before?

Pasta salads are amazing during the warmer months, whether it's served as a side or as the main meal. Today, I used mini macaroni tossed with cherry tomatoes, zucchini, cashewnuts, basil, parsley, garlic, chilli and a simple olive oil vinaigrette. So good!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What's your favourite way to make pasta salads?

Every time my herb garden presents us with a bountiful harvest, I make these Grilled Chicken Skewers. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Inspired by the chimichurri, I made a herb marinade using fresh parsley, basil, coriander and chillies; the chicken pieces are marinated in this and then grilled till juicy and tender. Sometimes we have these skewers as a starter but if it's to be made into a meal, then I often pair with pita bread, salad and tzatziki. The leftovers make for a delicious next day office or school lunch. Recipe link in bio....

Sanctuary, Shrine of Remembrance. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have been to the Shrine of Remembrance a couple of times, but it always entailed walking around the forecourt, looking at the Cenotaph, the Eternal Flame, the spectacular views of the city and ofcourse the Shrine as a whole. I was not aware of the Sanctuary and the Crypt that holds so much precious memorabilia and information from the World War era. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Since the Sanctuary is open only for a fixed time, it's important to check this out beforehand if you wish to experience this part of the Shrine, that's often not talked about. Have you ever been inside the Sanctuary?

'Animalia in Sand' presented by @sandsculptingaustralia and @boneo_discovery_park ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
15 award winning sculptors from around the globe have worked to create 26 giant sand sculptures based on the classic children's book by Graeme Base. Of course the sculptures are spectacular but we equally loved the captions associated with each; hilarious and so creative. Spend time at each sculpture because there's so much of hidden images and surprises that's for you to discover..and that makes it so much fun for both grown ups and children alike.
