Holding the Reins of the Runaway Extrovert 2013: Day 309 - Gee up horsies! (Melbourne Cup)

I was feeling quite sad late last week that I didn't have a job - that happens at regular intervals - and wasn't especially depressed I wouldn't get to do Melbourne Cup with anyone. In past years at Optus and AWC, it was a big deal and so I asked Justin to come over and after a busy morning looking for jobs and blogging, I sat down with him for extra lean beef sangers, cupcakes, champagne and lots of talking. It was a marvellous afternoon and while none of my or Justin's horses won, we had a ball.

Susie bought me these cupcakes yesterday which was unexpected and delightful (she noticed how shocked I was at the prices)

Leftover from Steve's 50th birthday celebrations so free - YAY!

Sausages already in the freezer so free there too!
