Dessert at Gelato Messina

Flavours L to R: Raspberry Sorbet, Two Stroke, Rumball in the Jungle, Tiramisu, Leaf Leaf Bang Bang

Given driving to the city is generally a rarity, Jade and I figured we may as well stop by Messina to pick up a take home tub.

With legitimate reason, this is the one of the best gelato places in Sydney - my only peeve is probably that it seems to never have Green Tea, but I suppose I have Via del Corso up at Westfield Sydney for that.

At 1.5L for $26.70, we got:

Raspberry Sorbet: my go-to at Messina, generally because I'm now more and more inclined towards sorbets given my recent bout of lactose intolerancy 

Two Stroke: "coffee, white chocolate and hazelnut gelato with candied hazelnuts", well I think coffee in any time of ice-cream can't go wrong, really.

Rumball in the Jungle: "peanut butter gelato smashed with rum balls", this was pretty good but ridiculously rich!

Tiramisu: all-time, all-time favourite

Leaf Leaf Bang Bang: "mango and coconut sorbet with pandan jelly", I wasn't too keen about this given I don't really like the taste of mangoes, coconut or pandan that much. Jade on the other hand adores this.

Night Time Noises

There appears to be some type of religious festivity going on in one the houses of my neighbourhood which is attracting a level of noise that would probably force some people to call 000 on a noise complaint. I'm dearly hoping it ends very soon, but in the meanwhile, I've been catching up on terrible teenage soap operas, finalising some content for work, and doing a strand test of my Manic Panic pink hair dye.

Pictures to come when I do the full dip dye! (I think I may need to go out and get some bleach)

Beginning Something

First post! I'm not too sure where this blog will lead but I'm not looking for it to be anything beyond something that I can journal my interests and life, so that (corny as it may be) one day I can look back to have some insight about what was important and what wasn't.

I'm currently in the limbo between completely finishing my HSC exams and starting my post-HSC shenanigans, but I'll soon be gallivanting around Asia to explore some かわいい Japanese goodness and re-connect with my roots.

Meanwhile, I'll keep ignoring the fact that I still have one exam to go and continue to just "do what I feel like".
