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…
Brisbane’s annual Greek festival, Paniyiri, took place this weekend but a series of inconvenient things happened and we didn’t get there despite having a lot of good intentions. My main reservation was the amount of people likely to turn up, so when we finally got out of the house today Nick took me to New…
Today I dressed appropriately for a date with famously delicious brownies from Dello Mano. One of my friends has been raving about these brownies for months and today managed to drag a few of us over to Breakfast Creek to finally try them. Here are my nails, they don’t really go with my black and…
If you think this is awesome, wait until you see the title of Debra Baxter‘s sculptural jewellery: “Crystal Brass Knuckles (I am going to realign your chakras motherf*****)”. I’m pretty sure this epitomises the foul mouthed beauty of “fance” and if I could get my hands on (and around) this knuckle duster I would die…
We bought a new camera the other day! I’ve been pining for a DSLR for years, and when we came across a good deal (posted by one of our Twitter friends) we basically rushed out to get it! It’s a Canon EOS 1000D, just an entry level camera, but I think it’s a good place…
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 lack…
Beth Ditto, the woman responsible for this morning’s excitement, can not be excluded from the Fance this week. We love you B.Ditto, thank you for designing a collection of clothes that is fun and makes us feel good. I particularly wanted to post this photo because of the fantastic dress – you can probably DIY…
When you saw this pretty piggy did you clasp your hands together and squeal?! That’s what I did. Apparently this is part of a jewellery spread for Vogue Russia featuring Cartier and Chopard. There are some more photos over at fashionologie! (I just hope those earrings are clip-ons…) I’m pretty sure watermelons have the best…
This morning four of the five lovely members of Charlie Mayfair came over for tea and cake. I thought I’d break out some lemon sour cream cake (it’s so good that this is the SECOND cake I’ve made in the last few weeks!) and for the first time ever the red polka dot tea set…
When you talk about hard issues, like body image and being fat and feminism, it’s nice to have a refuge. Somewhere to recoop lost Sanity Points. A little place where you don’t have to justify why you have the right to take up space, or field the same old tired questions. Nigella Lawson is one…
