So this week was The Runner’s birthday, and of course I made a cake. Now, one of The Runner’s favourite things to do is to come up with extremely random ideas for dinner, cakes, or basically anything else that he doesn’t have to cook himself- which is 99.9% of what…

Summer holidays are officially over- for some at least! Last week, The Child started Year 4. Year 4 seems like a big deal- I mean it didn’t at first but now it suddenly does. It feels like the last year of being a kid, and the first step towards becoming…

We’re 15 days into 2026 and I really don’t know what to say about it. I had a fabulous end to 2025- The Mom/Nana was over from the US and we had a fabulous fabulous fabulous trip to Tasmania, a place I highly recommend and can’t wait to go back…

…nope not Christmas. Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is my favourite holiday of all time of the whole year. It’s not typically celebrated in Australia, but I love celebrating it.

I’m in week 2 of my spring break and I’m leaning into it a bit. It’s a bit of a weird break but it’s good. I’m enjoying the downtime and getting a bit done too. The best thing about having time off is Monday morning pole classes. I’m feeling really…

The last month has been AMAZING. I finished my role and delivered a great strategy, went to an amazing leadership conference, had the best time in…

Time goes so fast. So, so fast. I would say that I can’t believe it’s already September but in truth, I can’t believe it’s already 2025. Granted, this is not the 2025 that I would have ordered. It feels more like the 2025 that Marty McFly went back to in…

This week’s cookies are the Brownie Cookies from 100 Cookies and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies. After last week, I was thinking about how much I love Reece’s peanut butter cups and the chocolate/peanut butter flavour combination. I mean I’m quite picky when it comes to chocolate, and Reece’s peanut butter…
