Eating Out: Brisbane Vegan Twilight Markets (March 2023)

Hello friends! It has been a while, almost two months since I last posted. I have had some pressing things going on. Mostly the fact that my PhD thesis was due to be sumitted by the 30th of June, so that was taking up all my home time. But the good news is that I got it in on time! It isn't over yet, there are still reviewers and revisions and orals, but we are a huge step closer. My brother was also here visiting from Spain, and only left to go back a few days ago, so I was also spending lots of time hanging out with him once my thesis was in. In between working, of course. My cooking motivation also completely disappeared. I ate a lot of delivery and takeaway because I was very focused on the tasks at hand, as well as just being extremely tired. However I have cooked a few times over the last couple of weeks, twice in the last two days, so I hope I can get back to cooking again because I do enjoy it.

Anyway, let's get back to those Brisbane Vegan Twilight Markets. I headed there again in March, because why not. This is what I had!

I got the okinomiyaki with potato and tomato demiglace sauce from :D Select. I love okinomiyaki. This was very good, but it was so filling that I didn't really have room left for much else.

I also got the Cheesy Mushroom Pizza from Piante Pizza, with the plan of squeezing in a couple of slices fresh and then taking it home to have leftovers the next day. Good plan. I have been waiting for ages to get this pizza on their market specials list, and it was pretty damn good.

In a final moment of glory, I remembered that my ice cream stomach was still empty, so I headed to I Should Coco to try their special, the Cinnamon Crunch Biscoff Sundae.

After that, there really room for anything else. So I picked up a couple of cupcakes for my mum, and an Iced Vovo for me to eat much later, from Pippa's Pantry.

How have you all been? I have been catching up on everyone's blogs. But not everyone has a blog. Let me know what you have been up to!

The girls are good. Mirabelle and Eloise continue to bring me great joy and love. Here they are sitting next to each other. Eloise was there, and Mira just came and plonked herself down next to her. It lasted for a few minutes before Eloise jumped off. So cute!

  1. Congratulations on submitting your thesis! Yes, now the paperwork and such begins, plus a meeting in a conference room that makes you a doctor somehow, but this is big and I hope you can take a moment to celebrate. Cupcakes are a good idea!

    1. Thank you! Universities move at a glacial pace, but I am hoping it doesn't drag on too long.
