Another weekend over.. so fast.. just recouped enough (maybe..) to ready myself for the many working weekends that is to come in the next few months...
We went to visit bf's family and added a little excusion on Saturday to a cidery in Bridgetown, aptly name The Cidery. Originality all the way.. at least you wouldn't doubt what they do. They do a variety of ciders.. from the dry traditional ciders to ones that has been aged for 12 years and of course the sweet ciders (with no added sugars), with their sweet ciders being naturally sweet thanks to the apples.. (the lady said they only and used pink lady apples)..oh there is also non - alcoholic ciders (so would be apple juice essentially??) available as well and is the only thing you can have (apart from water) that isn't alcoholic, there is no soft drinks).

Had a lovely lunch there.. consisting of a cider and beef burgers. They also have an outdoor area - which was such a beautiful place, would be perfect in the warmer months to run around, climb trees or just soak the sun. Pity the weekend had patchy rain (it didn't stop the kids from climbing the trees though).
We then strolled around Bridgetown - such a cute, quaint, main strip and had dessert and coffee at one of their little cafes called the Red Panda (loved their jarrah topped tables with stainless steel legs). Before catching up with bf's brother and had a wonderful roast pork and lamb family dinner.
Pity it had to end today after a lovely breakfast of bacon, eggs, mushroom and toast. At least the drive back was nice and we had our traditional pitstop in Donnybrook for pastries at our favourite bakery - The Apple bakery. This time though I discovered a little gem of a cafe called Tiffany's Cafe (a nod to Breakfast at Tiffany's and Audrey Hepburn) -where they make great 5 senses coffee.

Toasty fireplace - love the smell of burning wood and just fireplaces in winter - its just so perfect.

Recharged just enough to tackle yet another week.
