I love weather…and I especially love weather events such as thunderstorms. I don’t wish for anyone or anything to get hurt, but I just love the sheer power of Mother Nature. Although I always seem to be where the storms aren’t, so I am also a pretty good deflector! Anyway, a love of weather means […]

By Sarah in General, Melbourne, Travel Tags: graffiti, Hosier Lane, Laneways of Melbourne, Melbourne, street art
I love this city, and in the last year or so, I have discovered there is so much hidden away that you don’t see unless you know where to look. And that has led me into wanting to explore…to find what is behind, beneath and above the buildings. As a result of my urban curiosity, […]
My Friday Five – Things I miss…apart from a working Thyroid!

My life has changed so much health wise, even from just a couple of years ago…and it all seems mainly caused by a defective thyroid and it’s subsequent removal.

It seems every day we hear news of another fatality…or more…due to someone’s dangerous driving….drag racing, speeding, use of drugs or alcohol… There was a tragic double fatality last night apparently due to excessive speed…they weren’t able to identify the bodies till late afternoon. On a lesser note, there also seems to be more property […]

My regular followers will know that I am really enjoying putting together outfits each day…I am even getting a little more confident in being in front of the camera rather then behind. I am also discovering that you don’t need to splash heaps of cash to dress well. So I thought I would start a […]

We love finding new places to buy real tea, and a few months ago, we discovered that there was a tea company in Geelong! Leaf Tea is a locally owned, independent business, started back in 2002. They now sell via their two shops…one in Ryrie St, Geelong and the one we visited in Pakington St, […]

I don’t spend a lot of time in the kitchen as my husband does all the cooking as he loves it. But we were given this vegetable slicer for Christmas, and now I am hooked on spiralizing everything! And yes, spiralizing is such a word! Apparently, it is a Japanese invention which has caught on […]
