Friday Bake Day

When I was in Australia I picked up a copy of The Australian Women's Weekly "little squares and slices".  The book was so pretty and filled with such delightful recipes I just had to buy it (even though I'm not much of a baker).  And so,  today I gave it a go and made a Strawberry and Almond Friand.  And it is DELICIOUS! Woot woot!

What I (wish) I Wore

 


If only money grew on trees then I would definitely buy this amazing Mary Katrantzou blouse from Opening Ceremony...I do have the dog though!

Our New Best Friend

  
Meet Iggy - she is a french bulldog and a couch potato.  She is almost 18 months old, pulls funny faces and has a very sweet temperament.  She is also a little naughty and needs more training.  We love her to bits!

Holiday Update No.4 and a Gal in Black

I'm back in LA and recovering from the crazy, long plane ride.  Melbourne and Tassie were so much fun and it was sad to say goodbye to my loved ones again.  As much as we can skype each other, nothing beats a gathering with your closest people accompanied with food, drinks and loads and loads of hugs.  But anyway...here's some more snaps from Launceston, Tasmania.

 1. Evandale Market 2. Pretty Royal Albert tea cups 3. Super kitsch Bambi teapot and sugar bowl 4. Grumpy men 5. View from plane 6. Cadbury chocolate (is so much better in Australia)
