Orange F.O.O.D. Week 2011: Millthorpe in the Evening

This area is famous for its sunsets, so as our cottage was set on a hill and facing west, we were looking forward to relaxing on our veranda with a glass of something local and enjoying the view.

However, it turned out to be more a case of put on hat and gloves, rush out onto veranda, photograph sunset, rush back inside and thaw out in front of the fire.
But it was still possible to enjoy a glass of something local.

We then went out to dinner at the local (rather glamorous) pub for their steak and chips night.  Although it was just at the other end of our street, we drove, as it was so cold.  Because I travelled with cabin baggage only (to make a quick getaway from the airport for my gig when returning to Brisbane), I didn’t bring any heavy winter clothes.  Luckily, our cottage was equipped with some soft light blankets for snuggling up in front of the fire, so I borrowed this one to wear out to dinner.
