So on a recent girls getaway to the Hunter Valley, we had a no-holds-barred day of lazy luxury. Sleeping in, buffet breakfast, lazy naptimes followed by 4 glorious hours in the resort spa. And of course that day could only end in a delicious dinner, this time a tasting menu at EXP Restaurant. Nestled in…
So I finally had a short break! As I’ve mentioned before, it’s been a busy few months and I was deeply, definitely, desperately… in need of a good break. Y & M were also keen for a break, so we made some plans and decided on a long weekend in the Hunter Valley – or…
So I want to try a new series highlighting my top favourites across a broad spectrum of things that take my fancy – food, activities, fashion stuff, anything really… and hopefully it’ll be interesting? We’ll see! And to ensure I don’t just ramble on and on about things I love, I’m also going to try…
So I’m not really quite sure where the time has gone, but I’ve somehow lost a month. Typically my workplace has this crazy period in March, or “Mad March” as it came to be known, but it’s been so busy this year and the projects just keep on coming so last month got the title of “Mental May”….
So I occasionally do extra-curricular things at the Abraham Mott Hall community centre in Miller Point. It’s not too far from The Rocks and easy enough to drive to after work with lots of parking out the front. There’s a choir that meets there, salsa dancing and a variety of workshops. Around the corner from the…
The problem with me is that “getting to it” is the hardest bit. Starting anything new with my own steam has always been really difficult, I don’t really know why. Possibly because it means effort. Possibly because “I just don’t wanna!” Or, possibly because I can always find a million other things to do that…
One of the highlights on my recent trip to Mollymook, and the only time I really acknowledged this was a birthday event, was the dinner at Cupitts Vineyard and Restaurant in Ulladulla. Roughly 10 minutes drive from our AirBnB, it was already fairly dark by the time we headed over for our 8pm reservation – a…
So more people arrived to the beach house during our game of Ticket to Ride (see previous post if you don’t know what I’m talking about…), where we were getting especially raucous over a game expansion called “Alvin and Dexter.” This awesome addition to the game brought an amusing level of spite and distraction by introducing the…
So I celebrated my birthday recently and the only thing I wanted most was a short little getaway to rest and recharge. It’s been a pretty good start to the year but so busy that I’m not really sure how we managed to make it into March already. I mean. It’s March. Has anyone else…
Breakfast has got to be one of my most favourite types of meals. It contains some of my favourite foods: eggs, toast, potatoes, coffee. Oh, coffee. And I feel that breakfast really can be had at any time of day… I’m definitely a big fan of the all day breakfast, if you can find it… and…
