But then, from memory, it was Afterpay Day. And the very idea of sending out a post flogging stuff, even if…

How to put together a cheese board quickly will have you whipping up a board for your next drop-by visitor, an easy mid-week meal, afternoon session, or bring a plate occasion.

Low-cost artwork for my office makeover
Lately, I’ve been on the hunt for some low-cost artwork for my office. Artwork? Maybe, calling it something more like decor or wall prints or something would be more accurate.

A House Update: Suger’s Place
It’s been longer than we expected, after the first house we were hoping to purchase fell over weeks and weeks into the contract period.

Our lives in boxes
I was dragged kicking and screaming, sometimes literally, into packing up the house while I was on holidays over the past two weeks. I huffed and puffed. I sooked. I wanted to be at the beach, not in the recesses of my house pulling things out of cupboards, sorting, and packing. The phrase I don’t…
