canberra confidential...

V came home last week, from nearly 5 weeks in Wanaring/Engonia/the whops - cue much celebration and a few (happy) tears


These beauties delivered to my office heralded his imminent arrival...


Celebratory drinks involved a tres exciting mineral water for me


Friday morning, we road-tripped it down to Canberra for a long weekend break...


Took in the Toulouse-Latrec exhibition at the National Gallery, 'twas just marvellous! Really, really enjoyed it. Compared notes over a cuppa at the Tea Salon heh



This orange poppyseed cake from Koko Black was insanely good


Dined at Ottoman restaurant - by some chronic oversight, this was my first visit. Food was so good, I could have cried


Apparently this was good enough to bring a tear to your eye - I was allowed to sniff the cork


Thankyou Seed baby, for simultaneously killing me with cuteness, and threatening to bankrupt me over the next 5 months

Worked from Sydney today - the one day ever I don't carry my umbrella, and it bloody rains!


Took the bump out for lunch...


Popped in here...


Had these cleaned and sparkled up real nice


Dropped by the Lindt cafe at Martin Place and purchase many, many little gold bunnies...



Yessss my pretties! Do we want to place bets on how many of these survive to be gifted on at Easter? (the hot cross bun macarons are all miiiiine!) I need a walk just looking at these

How has the week been treating you? Are you all prepping for Easter by eating hot cross buns and little chocolate bunnies?

  2. How exciting!! Must check out that restaurant when I'm in Canberra next! So many cute baby clothes out there, so little willpower!!! It's hard to resist. Glad to hear your husband is back and the bouquet was gorgeous. The Easter bunny has already been to my house a few times. Oh the shame, there will be nothing to gift. I better get to the shops for the nth time! It's OK. We are pregnant!

  3. Oh my lawd I didn't know you are pregnant!!
    Congratulations, I'm obsessed with Seed Baby love, love their stuff.
    Only tip is always check the buttons on the onesies, I've had 2 suits where they are fiddly to open/close which is super annoying at 3am when you want to get a nappy on and off quickly and effortlessly.
