Hands Full of Glitter and Tofu : 2011 Day 57 (Saturday 26 February) - Brunch and Kulcha

Finally back in Glebe today!

It's been months and months since my gorgeous guy and I just spent a lazy Saturday wandering through Glebe Markets and Sappho Books & Gleebooks (the latter being one of my favourite bookstores in the world) after a slow lingering brunch talking and chilling together at Badde Manors, a vegetarian cafe with great food and funky retro decor. But we did it today and it was WONDERFUL..... and yes I bought yet more books! Yikes! LOL

Following all meandering we hit the sheets for a nanna nap before heading out to the bright lights and um, skankiness of Kings Cross to see a play, Jane Austen's Guide to Pornography / Glorious Bastard, at the Darlinghurst Theatre (dinner beforehand at Fratelli Fresh - the food was delicious) which was a two play combo full of great characters and witty one liners but alas, not the leather guy that had been advertised on the flyers! Still we enjoyed our slice of kulcha, with the only downside of the night being the fruitless 1 hour trek to find a decent coffee shop in the swill that is Kings Cross. Honestly, it is so gross that it made Oxford Street, hardly a bastion of wholesome behaviour, look like a church picnic by comparison. I will be quite happy to never go there at night again, thank you very much.

My one regret was not being able to make it to the Midnigth Shift, a gay nigthclub on Oxford Street, to meet up with work buddies, Sammi, and Francisco, but by the time we'd hit the road it was too late to stop in (after midnight) given that my gorgeous guy had to work on his project at home the next day.

Ah well....next time!
