I've been truly inspired by all the meals I am seeing and have decided to start learning how to cook on my own! Here I am using 2 stoves, 3 cooking pans, and 3 boiling bowls to make a pasta. haha....I guess the motto is the more you do something the more efficient you become. I have to admit my veggie tikka masala is the shit and I also made some yummy curry the other night too. I've made a habit of taking pictures of the stuff other people in the hostel are cooking for dinner :) so I can make it myself.
These are my work mates from the restuarant. We had a holiday here in New Zealand so the owner decided to take all of us out to lunch!...so nice! We had 2 wonderful platters of food and drinks. The three girls sitting across from me are the other waitresses (tiffany, esme and mattie) I work with. The man and the women to the right of themare the owners (pete and carolyn) . To the left of me are the wonderful chefs and kitchen hands (greg and vikki).
I went on my 7 hour hike and forgot lunch. so i, thank god, brought some chocolate chip cookies as my food for feul. I had so many freakin cookies over the course of that 7 hours.
This is one of the view spots from the Abel Tasman Coastal Trek i took.
We saw some buskers and this is one of the girls. Its a comedy / circus show were people do things like sand on boxes and juggle "razor sharp blazed of certain mutilation.
and this is the waterfront cafe where i work! Hurray, I love this place. I work from 6-11 6 days a week. It takes me about 20 minutes to bike to work. February is the busiest month so its been really busy at the restaurant. I'm happy to have tomorrow and wednesday off. Tomorrow me and my hostel friends are going to make pizza. On wednesday one of the girls at work who grew up in nelson is going to show me around the area! Isn't that nice! i think we will go out to lunch then to cable bay.
Hope everyone is doing well!

thanks so much for the pictures. It so great to put faces to those work buddies I hear so much about. Have you lost some weight? Otherwise you look real good. Can't wait to see those pictures of your native food creations.
The picture of the pink mutilation juggle is well.. uhmmm... I'm not sure. what does it mean?
The abel trek picture looks real beautiful. It would be fun to spend time at that lagoon. It looks like a perfect place to set up a tent for awhile. It seems all your pictures make Iris a little home sick for New Zealand.:)
Love,
momma
