Hello Lovelies. How was Christmas? We had such a wonderful time with my parents and all of our chickies at home in the nest, including our sweet granddaughter who was undoubtedly the star of the show. As we all sat around the dinner table, my husband noted that there were four generations of family together.… Read More
Hello dear ones and thank you for joining me here in my happy place for my final blog post of 2017. It’s been such a great year and I want to thank all of you for popping in to visit my kitchen, my family, my home and my heart. I am honoured to have you… Read More
Good morning dear ones, are you getting excited about Christmas yet? Today we broke out Bing Crosby’s Christmas carols which I freely confess caused a little flutter of the heart as I sighed out loud. Apart from being a baking stylist’s dream, Christmas really is a special time for me. I love everything about it.… Read More
Good morning Lovelies. It’s so nice to be here. Time out from a busy week for all of us no doubt. A few moments to sit still (my number one desire for the past 22 years), and look at pretty pictures of cake and flowers. One of my favourite aspects of baking and decorating cakes… Read More
Good morning dear ones, thanks so much for dropping into my little happy place today. In September two years ago, our precious son and his beautiful bride got married.

Good morning Lovelies, how was your week? I hope you are all able to take some time out over the weekend just to be still and breathe. Life surely runs at a hectic pace these days with barely a moment to stop and think a whole thought (or type a whole sentence!) These kiddies certainly… Read More
Good morning Lovelies. I’m sending this post from a cosy cabin tucked away in the bushland beside an untamed stretch of coast with my dear family and parents. Kangaroos freely roam the grounds and this morning I stumbled upon a wee joey with his head poked in mama’s pouch having his morning suckle. So precious.… Read More
Good morning Lovelies, and oh what a week it’s been. Hubby and son came home from their trek through Tassie and had some interesting tales to tell. Our adventurous, rock hopping, Legolas light foot, mountain climbing son hiked to the summit of Cradle Mountain and managed to send home some hair raising footage of himself… Read More
Good morning Lovelies. How’s things? The girls and I flew solo this week as hubby took our 18 year old son adventuring in Tassie for a dose of hiking, snow seeking, white water rafting and bush walks. He has worked so hard this year, often at three jobs, so we wanted to give him a… Read More
Hello dear ones, I’m so glad you are here. Thanks for popping over. I want to tell you a story. A story about a new chapter in the book of my life, and oh the pages smell sweet. There are few things I hold closer to my heart than bringing new life into the world, or… Read More
