Just a couple of weekends ago we celebrated Dad's 60th by heading up to Terrigal for the weekend as a whole family. On reflection, i don't think we've done a whole family trip since 2005 - almost 10 years ago! It turned out to be a lovely warm weekend (well, at least for winter!), except that Paul fell sick so missed out on most of the festivities...

| Short trek up The Skillion |
Of course, being the Cheng family we spent a reasonable amount of time prior to going chatting about the menu. I thought it would be interesting to record this, partially as a reference for next time (!) because this is probably our typical family celebration meal (with a couple of recent additions) and is actually not too complicated or time-consuming to make and bring.
Menu
 |
| Peking duck: Mario's favourite (store-bought) |
Things we forgot/ too full to eat: Bec's soup, tasty chips and snacks, the second duck and the second rack of ribs. Some people call it being excessive, we call it leftovers for the week!
For Sunday breakfast;
 |
Big breakfast of bacon, eggs, hashbrowns, grilled tomatoes, herb mushrooms
Yoghurt and blueberries and pandan chiffon birthday cake! |
