Outfit fails, I was hacked – LINK UP.
hello. Welcome to this weeks link up. What a week it’s been. The little community I live in has been hit by tragedy after a murder of a young Mum, and it’s been nothing short of heart-breaking. I’ve also been consumed with the stories on the news, of the floods willing people get back on their feet. And my website was hacked, it was the longest 36 hours of my life to get everything restored. AND I had a major outfit fail…I changed it before I left the house. I think it was the leggings under the skirt, they made me feel bulky (er). Other things I have been pondering. I have been thinking a bit about other kinds of houses and places to live, too. I favor houses where you can go for nice walks nearby and see the trees from the living room… or perhaps see other natural and lovely things from the living room. Siri – lives in my phone and I’m obsessed with upsetting it…pondering writing a blog post about this obsession. Ficus Elasticaa – it’s a plant With deep glossy green leaves that can have tones of burgundy. They love well-lit but not direct sunlight and water when they are dry to the touch. I am feeling ambitious. Simon Gaults shop Sous Chef, I managed to range myself a last minute invite to a tasting, he was there and lovely – the shop was really affordable with high quality products – I will possibly share some of my cooking adventures soon.

Bunny Rabbit Shortbread
I always like to make a themed biscuit for my kid’s parties. I’ve struggled to find the perfect recipe until I started using my Aunty Lynn’s Shortbread recipe. It is easy to roll and cut plain shaped biscuits from but you can also use it with a cookie cutter. These bunnies looked so adorable. The tiny […] Continue reading

Single parents, you’re not alone
It’s the catch cry of the toddler, that call to independence all parents hear at some point, “I can do it myself”. It’s the struggle to work out just how to stand on one foot while you get your jeans on, find a toilet in time or work out how to get the blocks stacked […]

GREEN, GREEN SMOOTHIE BOWL
Ok, so I turned 37 the other week, yep totally on the downhill slide to 40 now, how did that happen?! I’m alright with it though, as long as people follow that confidence up with ‘oh you so don’t look it!’ I do know people probably say that because I haven’t slept in nearly 4 […] Continue reading
