Confessions In Groups Of Five MEME
I have been tagged by Haalo from the inspiring Cook (almost) Anything at Least Once with five confessions. Phew…I’m just glad she didn’t ask me to confess what was in my sock drawer!
Five items in my freezer
- Wine. If it ain’t drunk then it goes in the freezer for cooking.
- Falafel mix from the lebanese take-away shop in the Chocolate Box complex, Camberwell. Sadly they closed their doors last week, but the owner sold me a bucket of her beautiful falafel mix to keep me going till they reopen in a couple of months.
- Soup, soup and more soup. Currently there are tubs of minestrone, pasta cece (chickpea), pasta fagoli (bean) and pumpkin soup.
- Bread. Take your pick of the organic ancient grain loaf, sour dough casalinga and fruit loaf.
- Herbage/Spiceage - There is some ginger, sage, curry, kaffir, bay, lemongrass and mint.
Five items in my closet
- Clothes (duh!)
- My stock of Gourmet Traveller, Delicious, Donna Hay and Healthy Food magazines.
- A llama beanie with ear protectors purchased during my adventures in Peru.
- A vintage 1940’s cocktail dress of mustard satin/beautiful fine black lace. Purchased on a whim three years ago I had the intention of replacing the vomit colour with a fire-engine red. It is still vomit yellow colour.
- Bodyshop Coconut Body Butter. It makes me smell like a pina colada.
Five items in my car
- About a gazillion burned CD’s.
- The Melways, despite the fact I’m crappy at reading maps.
- A brolly for Melbourne’s unpredictable weather.
- A stash of “green” recyclable shopping bags.
- A sleeping bag.
Five items in my purse
- Digital camera. You just never know when you’ll come across a food blogging opportunity.
- My filofax. It keeps track of those all important breakfast / lunch / dinner dates.
- My ipod shuffle.
- Mobile phone.
- Passionfruit tic tacs. I’m addicted.

the chocolate box building is looking a bit sad at the moment - be interesting to see if this redevelopment works a bit better than the last.

I’m addicted to those passionfruit tic tacs too!!

passionfruit tictacs sound awesome! we don’t have them here.

Haalo - yeah, I hope they do something a bit better with the Choc Box building. Unfortauntely a lot of the little take-away’s won’t be able to afford the rent, hence the reason for the falafel place closing. But I’m sure there’ll be some dapper replacements.
Rachel - passionfruit tic tacs are fantastic. They are still minty, but the passionfruit flavour really comes through. I guess passionfruit is very much loved by the Aussie palate. When I was in Canada/North America I fell in love with cinnamon tic tacs, which you just can’t get here (well not commerically anyway, they are available from the import store USA foods).

Hi, do know where the Lebanese take-away shop has moved to? I really miss their Falafel.

Hi Anon - no, I don’t know where the Lebanese place has moved to yet. I gave her my email, and she said she would be in contact once she opened the new store. She was going home for an extended Christmas visit, so hopefully it’s not too far away.
Mmm…I SO miss it as well!

Thanks Mellie. Hopefully it won’t be long before they open their new store.
