snapshots of the week past...

Its been a very full and satisfying week! Thankyou all so much for your absolutely lovely words and congratulations on my last post - I am absolutely thrilled. It was also fantastic to find out my cholesterol levels and various other things (including that I am quite seriously deficient in Vitamin D - I probably could have guessed at that one though LOL)


I was in Sydney for a seminar yesterday morning - and treated myself to breakfast at ikou, yum!


I took my brother out for lunch at the Snag Stand in the new Westfields food court - loved it! The menu was a bit dizzying, and I cannot wait to go back again



Meet my sister's cat Boo, now living with my parents - isn't he gorgeous? He is absolutely gigantic too. If he had the tufty ears and long fluffy coat, he could be a Maine Coon!



Have you ever seen a cat lie like this? Cracks me up



Clever little me managed to shut my finger in a doorjamb at work last week - still hurts like buggery. If the nail falls off I am going to scream!


I treated myself to a big bunch of flowers yesterday to celebrate my needle-victory - I dithered in the flowershop for a good 15 minutes, tossing up between the peonies and david austen roses, but settled on these gorgeous hydrangeas


The world's best ice lemon tea from lee&me!



Flowers, a Glasshouse scented candle and a glass of Wither Hills savignon blanc - perfection

  3. So, hi, here's my first comment! :)

    That breakfast looks delish!

    When I saw the hydrangeas, all I could think of was Madonna - "I absolutely loathe hydrangeas. He obviously doesn't know that."

    Strange lady... They're gorgeous! :)
