Dins with Dins Birthday Dinner
Sensational birthday dinner at @lashoppe_nz by @dinswithdins
One of the best, most delicious and enjoyable meals of my life.
Thank you to Bill for organising, Sam, Dan and Duane for joining us, and Sam Dinsdale for a magical experience.

Ode to a Lost Pal
You were left outside
All alone
The party’s over
And you are left behind
They’ve all moved on
Now you are an empty vessel
A memory of a night
Abandoned on the stairs

A wonderful weekend
Had a wonderful weekend with Bill. Started with gym sessions for us both, then brunch at Floriditas where we chatted with many people we know. Then drove up the coast to Peka Peka to have lunch with friends of Bill’s. A quick trip to Hōkio Beach to treat our drinking water, then back to Wellington to catch up with friends for a birthday and then a play at Circa Theatre - “Hope” - get your tickets now!.
Sunday - a very hot humid day - saw us walking through Mt Victoria and along Oriental Bay, then brunch once more, followed by shopping at the waterfront farmers market. A quick catchup with friends, then a visit to The Dowse Art Museum in the Hutt Valley - then Bill preparing for family dinner, and me joining a Wellington Pride Festival planning meeting.

I love micro.blog - but it’s small and paid.
I love that I can use my own domain (jeremybaker.nz) as my handle!

Exquisite meal at Mérito
Exquisite dining experience at Mérito restaurant. Exceptional decor, assured expertise from the staff, deep food and beverage knowledge from our head waiter and sommelier, and truly inspiring, delicious and memorable food and drink.
Undoubtedly one of the best anywhere.
