Comments on: NQN’s adventure at the Sydney Royal Easter Show http://www.notquitenigella.com/2009/04/14/nqns-adventure-at-the-sydney-royal-easter-show/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

Have a wonderful time and you're welcome! :D Hi r -Oh really? I haven't heard of that fear before! Hi SydneyGal-Yes they might ask for less showbags (perhaps!). hehe yes the rides and showbags can really add up! For us we spent a lot on the food of course :) Hi Arwen-The time flew very quickly which was great! Yeah I think they got a lot of people wanting one but not wanting to carry it around all day :) Hi anna-Thanks! Yep it was indeed :D Hi Brianna-Fantastic! Have fun :D Hi Sara -I missed the cheese on a stick, I should have tried it instead of the hot dog! Hi Simon-Yes that would be very cool but I bet it's very competitive! You should definitely go, it's lots of fun :) Hi Alexandra- It was indeed :) We had a fantastic time! Hi Brittany -haha good strategy! :lol: Yeah I was surprised about the birds-there were so many unusual ones! Hi Suzie-Oh very cool-you're welcome! Have fun! :D Hi little red hen-Thanks! The rides look fantastic at night. Hi belle-Oh no, I think we're probably around the same age!

Sounds like a great idea! :D Wow, in a slushe machine? :o they must go through a lot. Are they icey at all? Hi Sophie-Thanks! It was so much fun! :D Hi Christie-Fantastic, you'll have a ball I bet! Some things you just have to have I think :lol: Hi Bethie-Thanks, it was! :D Hi FFichiban-It was a bit like that, there's the smell of deep frying in the air. Hmm hubby refused to share it with me :lol: Hi Belinda-Hehe he was the first thing I thought of! Hi Sophia-It was like a culinary ride! We try, I love things like that! :D Hi Sandie-I know, it's such a big thing here. I've seen some great photos of your fairs and they do look awesome! Thanks! :D Hi Blond Duck-Cute isn't it! Oh really, no? ;) Hi grace-Yup tasting is always going to be a hit with me :D They were only giving tomato sauce with ours! :( Hi Maria-it seemed that way! :lol: Is it a different show in Melbourne? there's definitely a lot of nice gourmet food now which is great. Eek! yes I'm picturing a teaspoonful of it on a cracker. I had a tiny dot and it was so hot-you poor thing! :o Hi Artemis-Haha yes I know, trust my husband to notice that one! :lol: You know I've never tried one, I feel like I'm really missing out! I feel like this post was for, after continually asking what the Easter show was, haha! Hi Lilia-I think they are really making a big effort as there were so many things to do although I can't compare it to a few yeaers ago as I haven't been for so long! Hi Y -hehe thanks!
