To have practice fairy bread for dinner?
I am planning Dexie’s first birthday. I have a theme - bugs and I’m running with it!
At this stage his cake will be a caterpillar. I’m also planning to make the following:
Ladybird cupcakes
Bee cupcakes
Worm cupcakes
Blue lamingtons with fondant butterflies perched on them
Fairy bread […]

He doesn’t bring me flowers, he does bring me chocolate, but then I have to share it with him. Tonight he brought home a Chill Mat for my lap top. Isn’t he thoughtful?
It actually makes quite a big difference - I’d been putting it on a book, then on my lap, but it […]

A and I booked our holiday tonight! Yay!
While we were out and about, we stopped at A’s favourite olde lolly shoppe. He bought a can of Dr Pepper each and some liquorice sticks for himself. I bought some white Reese’s Peanut Butter cups and some peanut butter pieces. I […]

She’s an odd one, this little girl of mine.
Willow is currently mildly obsessed with a soap opera that is aired on ABC2 at 7:30pm, it’s called Something in the Air. She even tries to sing along with the theme song. It has all the ubiquitous Australian stars who are now really famous […]

I honestly don’t know how I had any part in creating such a beautiful girl. Actually I do have an inkling of an idea - in one […]

I am sitting in bed with a cup of Earl Grey and my new laptop. Well, it’s not so much new, as it is new to me. A bought a new laptop, so I have his old one. It’s a cute little thing - 14 inch screen and it’s white so looks […]

Just because I am awake, doing an essay, doesn’t mean you need to be!
Yes, that is the plural because Willow has decided to wake up as well. As long as she doesn’t get stuck into my Minties… It’s kind of a given that Dexter is awake at this time of night.

My hair is annoying me, it’s sitting in a chin length bob at the moment, but some of it curls under and some of it curls out, which just makes it look messy. The other day I used some product, but that seemed to just make the curl stronger.  I could blowdry it every morning, […]
