Lovin’ Life 3/11/2016: Colour.
There are so many things to love about life at this time of the year. My focus today is all the colour that the spring sun seems to bring out in the world around me. Jacarandas in bloom. Even a row of random parked cars, a wire fence and a drain manage to look beautiful…

Cup Day in Suburbia.
And here I am dressed in all my finery for The Cup. Nice try. At least there is a bit of sparkle from my barista writing my order in gold pen on the lid of this morning’s coffee. If you’re going all out today or just having a quiet one with the crew at work,…

Life This Week 31/10/2016: November Goals. Goodful.
It’s Halloween today, Melbourne Cup tomorrow and I don’t have a thing planned for either. It’s Party Central around here. To me, these last few weeks before December starts are weeks I like to spend getting ready for Christmas, Preschooler SSG’s birthday and New Years. November is all about the slow build up to all…

Lovin’ Life 27/10/2016: Same But Different.
It’s been an off the beaten track kind of week. Last minute routine changes, alternate routes to familiar destinations – that kind of thing. The good thing about all this change has been the chance to explore my world using a different mode of transport and also to observe its dynamics at a different time…

Don’t Give Up Your Day Job….
It’s a well known fact that this blog loves a bit of celebrity gloss, goss and sparkle. I’ve referenced outfits, reviewed memoirs, shared a bit of Carpool Karaoke (stop the press… Lady Gaga is carpooling this week!!) and even gotten a bit misty eyed about celeb relationships from back in the good old days… What…

Life This Week: Two Months ‘Til Christmas Eve.
Hello, happy Monday and welcome to everyone who’s following along with Denyse’s Life This Week blogging series. Today’s theme is all about Christmas and how it’s only two months ’til Christmas Eve. I never used to get too caught up with Christmas preparations until December. Invitations for parties would often come through in November, I’d…

Lovin’ Life 23/10/2016: A Highlights Reel.
This week’s Lovin’ Life highlights reel looks a little something like this: The days have mostly been warm and sunny but the mornings have been a bit crisp. It’s the kind of weather that has called for a denim jacket to be casually slipped on as I head out the door to work. I love…

Friday Drinks #2: VBxTarget, COAR and Other Things.
I call these posts ‘Friday Drinks’ because they’re a fun way to end the week. No considered discussions, no cohesive themes and no intelligent analysis of the big issues. Just a Daily Tele style take on the various things that have happened in my bubble of the world this week. Reading the Daily Tele (the…

Wynyard Walk and Barangaroo South.
If I’d only done a little reading about Barangaroo before taking Preschooler SSG for a little walk around yesterday then it would be highly likely that I’d have more to report back to you today besides a photo essay of Wynyard Walk, the sparkling office towers and beautiful new eateries of Barangaroo South. It turns…
