When my friends Pete and Mem came down for the weekend and asked where we should eat for lunch, the only cafe that sprung to my mind in my furious Gold Coast cafe review splurge was Elk Espresso at Broadbeach. There are lots of cafes down here, especially at Broadbeach, but finding [...]
With a lot of sadness, my Malaysia Kitchen jaunt was rounded out with dinner at Paradise Point’s Sayang Malaysian. Apparently my desire to try a Malaysian restaurant outside our suburb was “weird” according to Nick, and akin to driving across Brisbane for a meal. That didn’t put me off, I’ve certainly driven [...]
Our third Malaysia Kitchen jaunt took us to the Kampung Malay at Robina, one of three in the Kampung family (the other two are in Mudgeeraba and Bundall). I did my obligatory internet research on all of the possible Malaysian restaurants on the south end of the Gold Coast, and Kampung won [...]
My favourite perfume for the last five or so years has been Burberry Touch and I’ve always been faithful to it because it suits me so well. I’ve had a little bit of difficulty finding it at times and it scares me that it might one day be discontinued, so more recently I’ve been looking [...]
Today was super busy for me and I’d been dreading it a little because the last few months have been fraught with social anxiety and even though I’m starting to pull up out of it, it’s still a challenge. In this blog post bonanza I have TWO (2) outfit photos for your sartorial pleasure as [...]
I haven’t really had many waffles in my lifetime, in fact I distinctly remember eating one in my childhood and not liking it very much. It could have been the ice cream served with it (I’m not a huge fan) or it could have been the horrid overwhelming cardboard texture. Lesley Knope really likes waffles [...]
I grew up on Brisbane’s southside eating a lot of Chinese cuisine, but since going vegetarian I haven’t eaten much of it because many of the meals are centred around meat. When Nick told me we were going to the Gold Coast for vegetarian Chinese I was terribly excited because Brisbane has a real [...]
If you’ve been a long time reader (hello, I love you!) you’d know that I have a “repetitive strain injury” in my right arm from working too hard at being a graphic artist. I have had a lot of therapy in the last few years with no real result because I’m very [...]
There is nothing more thrilling than being roused by the postie making an early morning parcel delivery and then sitting in bed ripping everything open like a 4 year old on Christmas day. Oh wait, there is something more exciting… trying everything on and having it all fit perfectly!
It seems like I’ve been waiting [...]
I’ve had an interest in organic and natural skin care products for a while, but because I have difficult skin it’s been a challenge finding something that alleviates the angry red cystic spots that pop up and fits within my modest artist budget. I’m more than willing to try new things, so when one of [...]
