Chained to the Country

I believe people are influenced by their childhood. The way you are raised is ultimately what shapes you into your adulthood. I look back on my childhood and feel nothing but happy memories. Sure, my smart ass mouth got me into a lot of trouble but I would not have had it any other way. …

Stirrups in Full Swing

They say when you fall off a horse to hop straight back on. What if you forget to hop back in the saddle? What if months go by and your hands don't pick up those reins? Well... That's what unfortunately happened to me. In 2015 I endured the stress of grade twelve and a part-time …

Crunching on Cob Loaf

Does anyone that likes cooking ever enjoy the cleaning up aspect? I think not. That is my one and only deterrent when cooking. Sure, making can be buckets of fun. Buuuuut the leftover mess is certainly a no from me. Most people say that they clean as they go but I think it sucks away …

Redefine Your Instagram Feed

It's Wednesday. Over halfway now. I can almost feel the winds of the weekend! We just have to get through two more days. Luckily I can count on my Instagram feed to amuse me through to Friday. Does anyone else have an incredible and addictive Instagram account that they can't even remember following. For me, …

Satisfying my Self-Esteem

My laptop has been sitting on my lap for that long it has actually made my thighs red. I have started so many blog posts but not one has made it out of drafts. It wasn't until I accidentally knocked my hair appointment card off of my bedside table that I realised something. Sometimes the …

Warwick’s Wonderful Wool

On the 30th of July, Jumpers & Jazz had me jumping for joy. I cannot express how much I adore markets and festivities. Watching a whole town come together over the simple concept of wool and cotton is incredible. The trees are adorned with unique designs all around the town. For an art addict I …

Overseas Certainties

One thing is for certain - I will be leaving the comfort of my own country. This will be my second time in Bali and I still find myself in a tangle of anticipation. There's something about planes that make me a little queazy no matter how high their safety rating - that's also for …

Shimmer & Shine in that Garden of Mine

Silly Little Siblings

People often ask me how my sister and I fare with such a big age gap. I hear it at least once a week. To be specific, I am 3755 days older than my sister. To put it into a better time frame, there is 10 years, 3 months and 12 days between us. And the answer to …

Astounding Australia

"Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises" - Pedro Calderon de la Barca I recently had a fellow blogger comment in surprise at the greenery featured in Sunday Serenity.  I'd love to know what your thoughts are on Australia? What have you heard about my country? Is Australia on your bucket …
