It’s the final countdown!
I have to say I’m so excited and nearly jumping out of my skin. It’s our wedding day today. Already the last 18 hours have been super special and super amazing! Last night we had our wedding welcome reception and it was one of the best nights ever! It was a family reunion mixed with…

The countdown is on…
It’s hard to believe that today is the last day of July– or the first day of August, depending on where you are in the world. For the last 17 months, August 2014 has felt like it would never come… in fact, for the last 34 years, it felt like August 2014 would never come.…

Let’s take this show on the road!

So here I am at Sydney airport- for once I’ve gotten here ridiculously early so my companion and I have had time to chill out and get into mischief. We’ve gotten our eyebrows tinted and waxed, claimed our tax back, bought a lipstick and we’re now having champagne. And we still have an hour to…

Waistlines have expanded and there are wedding dresses to fit into, bridal shower pictures to look back on, hens night outfits to find…

Pale-no or my theory of evolution
I’m giving up and throwing in the towel on my Paleo challenge this month. After 7 days of not being fully committed to it– Friday morning’s hangover quenched with a piece of toast, a few breadsticks and dip on Saturday and a few treats at Ladies Lunch yesterday which were definitely not paleo plus my…

Paleo, Caveman, Primal, UGH!
Happy April! So for April’s challenge, we’re going caveman or paleo or primal or something. If we can figure out what to eat. It seems like everyone has their own take on what Paleo is and what you can or cannot eat. Making this week’s menu and grocery list has been a nightmare. Is cream in or…
