The Final Countdown…

Fun Fact: The Final Countdown is a song by 80s group Europe. (sorry if you actually clicked the link and watched the video, it’s not a great song or video unless you’re into 1980s hair bands and men with leather pants and makeup). Fun Fact #2: The Runner leaves on Thursday for Europe where he…

1 year ago…

It’s amazing that the things I worried most about for the wedding were the things I didn’t even notice on the day. The things I remember the most were the things that weren’t planned at all. Like having a 5 guys burger with my best friend before everyone started arriving- and the look on my…

it’s time to face facts
I could make a list of all the things I could, should, would wish that I was doing… But that I’m not. A million things I’m failing at…. Or I could realise it might be time to reset my expectations. At the beginning of winter, I had goals, plans, ideas. I was going to take…

No computer, no blog…
So my laptop is in the hospital at the moment- the computer hospital that is- so until it comes back, I can’t tell you all about our amazing adventures….. Stay tuned, it will be worth the wait! For now, salivate over last night’s dinner. I didn’t cook it- we went to The bridge…

I’m also writing this under my electric blanked with my ugg boots on- so…. yep,…

Something Old, Something New…
Recently I dug out the first issue of Delicious Magazine that I ever bought. The October 2002 edition. I did this because I wanted to see how much has changed foodwise since I arrived in Australia nearly 13 years ago. It might seem like quite a random thing to do but recently I received the…

The big 3-5
I cannot actually believe that I’m 35. 35 sounds old- like pets, houses, kids and hover cars old. I thought when I turned 35 in 2015 I would have at least one of each (thank you back to the future) and I would probably be really depressed about not having any of those things if…

#winning
Sometimes you have good days, and sometimes you have amazing days- and sometimes you just have to admit that things are pretty bloody good. And that’s what I’m doing. Because this week I’m #winning. Actually, my entire year of being 34, I think has been pretty unbelievable. First, I’ll state the obvious- duke won the…
