Need... not a want
What's currently in the freezer- Hokey Pokey and Banana & Salted Caramel.
I have a strong feeling that this Gelato phase won't end anytime soon. So much so, my household has created a rule: There must be Gelato in the freezer at any one time.

Vienna Philharmonic
Last week I was lucky enough to see the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra perform both of their programs for their Australian Tour.
Night One's program was:
SCHUBERT Symphony No. 8 Unfinished
MAHLER Des Knaben Wunderhorn (Matthias Goerne, baritone)
BEETHOVEN Symphony No. 8
MAHLER Des Knaben Wunderhorn (Matthias Goerne, baritone)
BEETHOVEN Symphony No. 8
Night Two's program was:
BRAHMS Tragic Ouverture
MOZART Symphony No.34 K. 338
BRUCKNER Symphony No. 4 Romantic
MOZART Symphony No.34 K. 338
BRUCKNER Symphony No. 4 Romantic
The orchestra was conducted by Christoph Eschenbach, who I have to say is one of the most fascinating conductors I've seen.
On a more personal note- I love attending concerts of a higher calibre for the mere reason that the audience is so much more respectful and really share a great common interest. Although, one thing I found surprisingly amusing was that a large percentage of the audience were of the older generation and each time there was a break between movements all you could hear was everyone letting out all the coughs and sneezes that were held onto whilst the orchestra was performing.
Overall, a very enjoyable experience. Until next time!

Coconut time!
And below is what you could call Vietnam's Okonomiyaki, Tortilla or Crepe. Made from a batter of some sort (not too sure of) and filled with beef, bean sprouts and spring onions. Yummy!
