My B'day and the Sydney Food Bloggers Meetup

2 June 2010, 01:50


I have always wanted to have parties with a theme! And ever since Heroes came out I’ve always wanted to wear a cheerleader outfit. And then Glee came out this year and I knew that my birthday party would definitely have to be school themed.


(Photo from Loz) The awesome people at Nuffnang were fantastic enough to sponsor the party for me and we had a whopping 60 bloggers attend- our biggest turnout! The venue was at the newly refurbished Kent St Living Room upstairs in City Hotel (cnr of King & Kent St, Sydney).


(Photo from Loz) Unfortch there was no ramp or lift so Loz was unable to come upstairs. So the bloggers came downstairs!


Dodgy photo from my p&s camera but only group shot I have ah how I wish we took a backwards shot too! I didn’t get to take much photos so um gonna borrow some from everyone!


(Photo from Ninja) Jacq, Ninja and I. One of us is heaps more enthusiastic about wearing a skirt..


Girlies


(Photo from Mel) Richard is the smoothest nerd evah! AUBERGINEEEE


Me and Rose with her awesome chalkboard


Grace, me, Simon


(Photo from Mel) There were foods aplenty but um I was too busy talking to people haha


(Photo from Ninja) But it sure did look good!


(Photo from Ninja) Food bloggers with their weapon of choice


Billy and Simon with fros!


Nerds are awesome


(Photo from Simon FF) Da crowd. Uh that was around the time when i realised my intense dislike of public speaking haha


(Photo from Simon) Karen and Rita you guys are my sunbeam! My only sunbeam! You make me happy! When skies are grey!


(Photo from Ninja) Some happy snaps with a giant knife and a chocolicious cake oh baby


And then the night continued with some colourful drinks! Super thanks to everyone who came and made the meetup so awesome! It was lovely to meet you all and finally put a face to your blog! Food bloggers in attendance:

  35. Hi, I came across your blog on Tastespotting. I love it! The food you eat in Sydney is so different from what we eat in New Orleans. Love your Saints cheerleader outfit! How in the world did you get that? :)
