Easy Peasy Satay Chicken. Who doesn’t love a good bowl of it?! Now, this recipe is NOT for someone with peanut allergies, or for someone who might be planning on kissing someone with peanut allergies after dinner, however for the rest of us, it is fruitin’ tootin’ pea-nutty deliciousness. (more…)
Life is damn busy. Before I went on maternity leave, I got through my every day running purely on adrenalin. I was towards the end there, in serious danger of burning out and losing my mind. (more…)

It was early Saturday morning, and it was the day of “The Toy Sale”. My husband and I drove to The Toy Sale completely pumped. We had carb loaded the night before for energy, and had blood pumping music roaring through the car speakers on the way to the event, to put us in the mood for the biggest toy grabbing throw down this side of the Southern Hemisphere.

I love to read. I read as much as I can whenever I have the time, and love nothing more than losing myself in a really good book. I love being transported to a magical world where anything is possible, and stories that are so thrilling and mind boggling that my heart rate increases and I start to skim the pages, unable to move my eyes fast enough in my desperate rush to find out what happens next.

Dear Baby, Today I failed you. It has been over six months now since you came into my world and lit up my life, however today has been one of the toughest days I have known and I have failed you. I didn’t want to go out this afternoon because I knew you hadn’t slept and I just didn’t want to put you through it. But we went out anyway. You were so sad and you wouldn’t stop crying. You wouldn’t sleep. It’s all so unlike you. We should have gone home and tried to give you comfort somehow. But I failed you.

Ahhh… Becoming a new parent. The excitement. The joy. The new baby smell, and the precious awareness of new life. We parents wander around in a state of delirious bliss for those first few months whilst adjusting to life with our brand spanking new baby. We are entertained by a continuous stream of visitors all wanting to spoil us and spend time with our baby, enabling us to live those initial days out in an exhausting but happy bubble. Life is beautiful. It’s magical. It’s bliss. However the visitors stop. (more…)
Sigh…It’s Monday again. The fleeting time we had over the weekend with the hairy husband is over and back to the grind it is for all of us. Again. Double sigh. (more…)
