Oooohhhhh Dear… Well, here’s the story. Today, I went to the “Aroma Festival”, held at The Rocks, in Sydney. I went because there was coffee, chocolate, tea, spices, and other yummy stuffs… Coffee’s were only $1 and I knew that they’d be a lot of free sample stuffs as well… Anyway, I had two coffees (A Cappuccino and a Latte, and I must say, they weren’t that great… Quite weak actually), A slice of Cookies and Cream Rocky Road (Which kinda killed me because I have a kinda low sweetness tolerance) and a whole load of various free samples… There were some “poffertjes” (Dutch Pancakes) that looked really good but I didn’t buy any. I didn’t buy any was because it cost $7 for around 10 of these tiny pancakey things with syrup/sauce, and extra $1 for Strawberries, and another extra $1 for cream, which (if you can’t do maths) means it would cost $9! And they looked so good too!
The $9 “poffertjes” which a kind lady allowed me to take a picture of. =D
Anyway, so after that, Hursh and I decided to go see “Get Smart”. It started at about 2pm and so we didn’t come out of the cinema until about 4pm. Well, I hadn’t had lunch yet and so I decided to go search around for some foodstuffs. Well, Hursh bought a Strawberry Tart thing and me, being me, couldn’t decide about what to get… So time went by, and so I thought about sushi or something. So I decided to take a look at a sushi shop. With it being a Sunday, and at this time it was about 4:45pm, the Sushi shop was closed. *sigh* Along with pretty much everything else. *sigh* Except for McDonald’s… *sighs some more…* So I bought a “McAfrica Burger”, “Fries”, and a drink and it cost me BLOODY $7.45 FOR THAT CRAP! Look I took a picture!
Oh yes, I actually ate it! *runs to corner to cry*
*sigh* Well, there you have it! My great outing today hoping to eat some yummy REAL FOOD, and eating some good quality foods, then finishing up with McDonald’s… What have I done?…
