Like father like daughter

Training: Bike 25km

Wow – is it Sunday night already? Boy this weekend had passed quickly – but where did I leave off?

Saturday was all about one thing… the AFL Grand Final! Between footy, frustrating results, plenty of good food (and plenty of good wine), we had a wonderful Melbourne day.

But Sunday arrived quickly and, luckily without a hangover,  I headed to the country to spend a day with my dad.

Who, can I say, lives in the most gorgeous country cottage.

While I was tempted to spend the afternoon sitting on the verandah with a good book…

I convinced Dad to join me for an afternoon training ride.

Not that it took much convincing – given the perfect weather!

We followed a local bike path through the country…

   

Stopping for a coffee mid way- yes my Dad drinks soy lattes!

25km and one magpie swoop later (let’s not talk about that), we headed home, showered, and rewarded ourselves with a cold beverage of the GF variety.

The view was terrible ;)

After our pre-dinner drink, BBB dad busied himself in the kitchen…

And I headed out to explore the ‘farm’…

Camera in hand, of course…

How could one not fall in love with this country charm?

After bike rides and paddock walking, I returned home hungry and immediately in awe of the well set table that was awaiting me…

  

Upon which BBB dad served a delicious meal shortly after….

GF pasta, potatoes, salad and red wine.

 

A carb-alicious pasta – together with a much needed bowl of green.

 

Biking, country-lovin’ and a healthy home cooked meal…..like father like daughter really ;)

Happy Baking :)
