Remember when you were little and you used to set up your dolls for a tea party? You dished out yummy cakes (sometimes real, sometimes made of mud and sometimes just a figment of your imagination). You poured watery tea from your plastic tea set. You told dolly she needed to behave or she wouldn't be allowed seconds. Last Sunday I got to enjoy … [Read more...]
It Was Third Class …
It seemed like a simple enough task. Allison Tait over at Life in a Pink Fibro posted a photo of herself from third grade and challenged others to do the same. Great, I thought, that could make a cute blog post. Then the search began. I had my high school photos here at home, but no sign of primary school shots. My mother was away, so I did what … [Read more...]

Shambolic Living Mood Board
I've spent the morning trying to locate my inner artist. However, I have now decided if there is even an ounce of artistry in this body it is buried so deep excavation would be far too costly and time-consuming to unearth it. I am at present taking part in Holly Becker's Blogging Your Way Boot Camp. Holly's a visual person, she's big … [Read more...]
It’s All About Me

Reading This Week – Fishing for Tigers – Emily Maguire
Firstly, a disclaimer, I'm a prude. Even as a teenager I was a goody-two-shoes who was uninterested in what anyone was doing in regards to bedroom activity. Today, I continue to ignore the Fifty Shades of Gray phenomena. I haven't even been able to bring myself to read The Bride Stripped Bare by Nikki Gemmell, which I know will be … [Read more...]

What Do You Want To Be When You Grow Up?
The Hippie Child goes into Year 10 next year. After that there's two years of intensity for the HSC and then she has to head out into the big, wide world. The question of "what do you want to be when you grow up?" is starting to be asked with a serious tone. We've gone through what she likes about her school subjects, we've (ok I've) started … [Read more...]
Greatest Movie Quotes
I think I may have some repressed anger issues. In a discussion on favourite movie quotes recently my friends were reminiscing about such lines as, "Nobody puts Baby in a corner". - Dirty Dancing "You had me at hello". - Jerry Maguire "Life is like a box of chocolates you never know what you are gonna get". - Forrest Gump Me? Well … [Read more...]
