Soccer Mums and Sailing Lessons

On Wednesday night, Gretel had plans to go out to dinner with eight other mums (moms) from Ravi's soccer team, and I was invited along. We met at this really great Moroccan themed restaurant where we sat on pillows around low tables and really cute Aussie waiters brought us a variety of dishes to share: prawns, fish, beef, salad, olives, veggies, bread, hummus, and the most amazing risotto I've ever tasted! Yummy!

Conversation was lively, and at my corner of the table eventually turned to my single status. There was some discussion as to whether they knew any single men to set me up with (Warren from IT MIGHT be an option), but in the end it was decided that I should take sailing lessons. Yep, apparently it's a great way to meet guys here in Sydney. And just in case I don't actually meet anyone, I'll still have a good time learning to sail!
