tuesday update...

Have I been a bad blogger lately, or what? Life does have a way of catching up with one at times! Anyway, here is a bit of an update...

On Saturday, V and I enjoyed some time together over lunch at the quirky Owls cafe



World's best chai - big call, I know, but 'tis true!



The cold, miserable weather meant jeans were a necessity



Spinach and fetta quesadilla with lemons and yoghurt dipping sauce, nom!



On Sunday, we headed up to Sydney with my family - a friend of ours needed some things cleared out of a storage locker, and we volunteered to help out. V and I were also given some gorgeous rosewood furniture, which we just love! Photos further down...



After an hour or so of heavy lifting (or riding around on the industrial furniture trolley in my case!), we headed into Glebe for sustenance at Digi.Kaf - ummmm, killah coffee people!



At my Mum's insistence, behold the Best Cup Of Tea Evah!



V had the not-so-big brekky



More coffeeeeeee!



Om nom nom - seriously the most amazing french toast ever, with bacon and maple syrup



And behold the gorgeous new furniture! I have put our wedding proof album on here, seems to work



Gorgeous rosewood chairs...



Chair with a cosy angora throw



Aaaaand our lovely friend also gave us a bookshelf, yeeeee! Meant I got to pull some of my books out of storage - like greeting old friends. The Hans Christian Anderson fairytale collection was a gift from a Danish friend of the family, when I was 3. Cherished.


This week, V is away in Canberra for work - so I have been consoling myself with scented candles


And reading my little butt off - still working my way through the Harry Potter series!

Currently at home by myself, watching The Village - may regret that choice later!

  7. The Village is quite a good scary movie to watch alone because you get nice and scared but in the end you know that it wasn't real so there is nothing to worry about. Not like me stupidly watching Paranormal Activity by myself.

    The new furniture is gorgeous, congratulations on getting it!
