Found it on faaaaacebook…
Facebook and I are well acquainted. I am constantly amazed by the fun stuff, the weird, the awesome and the random that I find there. More than social networking it’s like a gateway to STUFF! Yesterday I was clicking through some links and found my way to Tim Shumate Illustrations. I love it. The take on…

Hubby’s a close sleeper… You?

Were you ready for THAT on a Sunday morning? {Especially those of you sporting hangovers from the Aussie Bloggers Conference 2011 Dinner Dance} And with the sharing of a bed comes a realisation. The…

Babysitting is awesome because…
You get to show up with your crafty goodness and make a mess. And I guess you make some cute stuff too. Ok, lots of cute stuff… A whole family of paper dolls including beds, couches, cubby houses and flat screens. Oh, and don’t forget the family car. Oh and the super dooper best parts.…

I’m loving grey at the moment… You?
And of all the lovely things in all the world, I would wear it like this. Dress up the simple but lovely dress and shoes with bold pop colour accessories.

What’s your favourite part?
I am sitting in my living room. On my lunch break {See, how lucky am I to live so close to my work}. And thinking about things to write about. But one single thought keeps rolling around and around in my head. I am wondering about bloggers and blogging and this whole world here. I…

This time next week…
I’ll be 28. It feels strange to say. It’s late twenties. For sure. I will have to change my bio from mid-twenties {the high side} next week. It’s not the number, I don’t think, as much as it is the associations I put on to it. Even now when I think, or when I picture,…
