winter woolies for melbourne

A girlie weekend to beautiful Melbourne, only 6 hours until we board our little plane. So very excited. So we think Brisbane is cold, we're pulling out our serious winter woolies for this weekend. I have this lovely Alannah Hill cream coat I rarely get to wear, but this weekend it will keep me forever toastie. Unfortunately we're a member down on our lovely team. It won't be the same without you sweet P.  

Loving this image I found via Little Expeditions Blog. Joanne Piechota has a love for travel and photography and her blog is filled with incredible travel photos. I'm so happy to have stumbled upon her blog.

photographer love of the moment

Check out this beautiful photographer. California based jen huang has an eye for capturing those special moments. Her blog is filled with beauty and love. She also conducts lots of workshops as well, so if you want to take part you can. One of my favourite things to do - be mesmerised by beautiful photography - the time passes by so quickly.

splendid days

These delightful, whimsy ladies are all over it. Grainne and Tanya from Splendid Days in Sydney have the perfect eye for your wedding day or special event. I've been mesmerised by all the images on their website and blog. It makes you want to get married all over again, just so you can have the fun of styling another special day. From the sweetest of flowers, to the most charming of furniture, everything these ladies possess is perfection. Imagine walking down the little isle above seated with all of your most favourite people in the world, just so simple and elegant. I'll be certainly looking out for these two ladies every where now.

poppies flowers

What a lovely little find Poppies Flowers located in Glen Osmond, South Australia. Specialising in arrangements for all occasions. I'm especially in love with one of the peony bouquets on the website, it's breathtaking. You must jump over and have a look.

poreta is calling

some lovely flowers for you today

Once again, I haven't posted any flowers for a while and you all know how I love to post flowers every now and then. Today is definitely a day for flowers, it's Friday, you can admire them all weekend. I love these petals, they look like the sun has been shining for days and takes me to summer. We all want to be taken to summer at the moment, IT"S COLD, well for Brisbane it's cold. We're not great in cold weather up here.  

More glorious images from we heart it. found here

Only 1 more sleep until we are in Vanuatu for my hubby's company convention. I have been dreaming about some yummy warm weather and it's finally here. We're staying at le lagon resort, I'll take some photos for you. And have a mocktail too.

jellyfish

Jellyfish in Brisbane with some of our besties on Sunday night. Wow the food is incredible, service impeccable, atmosphere quirky and fun. Highly recommended in my books. We had been to Aria around 2 weeks ago with some other dear friends and although the food was lovely, my hubby's steak was a bit tough though, it just had no atmosphere. We all felt like we were in a big hotel restaurant and should have been wondering up to our rooms after dinner for our flights the next day. Maybe I missed something though as it has an amazing reputation. If you have to choose, it has to be Jellyfish. Mmmm
Thank you travel memo for the image

picnic with me

I have a picnic basket similar to this one on lay-by, have for a little while, whoops need to go and get it. Speaking of which can't wait to pick it up and plan some yummy picnics with friends. What shall we bake?

the jezabels

Off to see the jezabels tonight in Brisbane. Can't wait to see Hayley Mary rock it out. Just me and my hubby too, love it.

wildflowers

This photo reminds me of the wildflowers in Western Australia. Did you know they have the most incredible wildflower season. Mum and dad have a photo of me when I was 4 sitting among the most incredible field of wildflowers near our farm, I can only vaguely remember it. I would love to revisit them now and take photos of my hubby running through them.

being truly inspired

I started my Blog e-course on Friday with decor8 blogging your way. I can't tell you how excited I am about this little project in my life. I've been looking around for a long time for some way to expand my knowledge in this area and be inspired and this is perfect. Who know's where this will take me. Dream, dream, dream.

rest

What a delicious sleep.

peanut butter love

It's cold, rainy and a little dim here at the moment. So since I was inside and in the baking mood, I baked these tasty, tasty peanut butter cookies from Gwyneth's cookbook Notes from my Kitchen Table. I absolutely adore this cookbook.
Then I ate 1, hmmm maybe 2 or 3 fresh from the oven with a calming cup of tea. It was heaven. As

you can see they're suppose to look like the ones below from Gwyn's cookbook, but mine were a little big, they therefore don't look so elegant, totally tasty though. And whats even better they're gluten free, so my hubby can help me eat them.

The photo below is from Gwyn's cookbook.
