Last night my hubby and I went on a date. I was so excited. My sister minded my toddler while we took the rare opportunity to eat in peace. It has been two years since I have sat down with him and actually enjoyed a meal and didn't have to shove the food down my throat in three gulps while restraining my daughter from climbing on the ceiling or walking to someone else's table, grabbing their chips and throwing it at them while laughing.
To be honest, going out to eat with her in public is pretty dreadful. It is stressful and embarrassing. Even now while I am typing this she is walking across my stomach, pulling out my hair with one hand and tapping me on the head with her dinner spoon with the other as if my cranium is her personal drum kit.
Just got choked.
We went to Kaza Blanca Grill, a local place in Fremantle that serves up some good Moroccan food. So good in fact that I actually ate salad there. I never eat salad because a plate of tiny mixed vegetables is about as exciting as watching a pair of flies mate on your kitchen bench (it happened today) but their tabbouleh was incredibly fresh and tasty. I never knew garden offerings could be so delicious, especially when sitting on crunchy bread, smothered in hummus.
So we got that for an entree along with some warak enab (which they strangley call "Dolmar". I didn't think that was an Arab name for wrapped vine leaves). For mains, I ordered a kefta tagine. Hubs got the mixed grill. Being the good wife that I am, I helped him eat it.
I wore an Amirah Fashions abaya; one that I seem to wear the most out of all my abayas because to date it is my only plain black one (I pulled the decorative buttons off it since the review to have it match more of my scarves).
My crochet vest went on top, followed by one very silky tie-dyed scarf from colour queen herself; Dian Pelangi. Evidently I was going for a relaxed bohemian-hippy style to match the restaurant's chilled atmosphere and took along my comfy dark caramel bag that I picked up in Malaysia.
Accessories up close. I love the texture to this silk Indonesian scarf.
