Day 581
Thursday 09 April 2015
Back in Melbourne and back to my man who I missed so, so much.
And what did he have waiting for me? A beautiful bouquet of flowers (African sky red and yellow roses!) and an array of Easter chocolates.
Not only a chocolate bunny, but a chocolate Bilby. Ummmmm…who knew that was even a thing?!
From Wikipedia – Bilbies, or rabbit-bandicoots, are desert-dwelling marsupial omnivores; they are members of the order Peramelemorphia. Before European colonisation of Australia, there were two species. The lesser bilby became extinct in the 1950s; the greater bilby survives but remains endangered.
So they have a pouch and we have them in chocolate form for Easter down here. Who knew indeed!
But I must say, the little guy did taste mighty good.
