Tea for two...

and two for tea... A perfect afternoon with the prettiest pink tulips in a teapot.
Betty Crocker came out of the pantry and i even surprised myself at my ability to follow a recipe and make the most perfect marshmallow, chocolate tarts, mars bar slice, cheese cake oh and the list continues... DELIGHTFUL










Time has flown

Oh how time has flown... i have neglected my blog... just like when i start reading a book and three months later must pick up from where i left off... and re-hash along the way.

The bird quote we have in our house today says... live in the moment; discover delight in the simple things. My moments have been epic and manic and some what irrational and at the same time amazing and liberating and enlightening. I have had some great moments in the last few months... gah... amazing times..

80's are alive and kicking !!!


Op shopping... L.O.V.E... found this amazing black dress at an op shop just around the corner ! My flat mate organised a tea party for this weekend, so we were searching for old school "my Nana would have had one" teapots... we did fine one.. but i found 2 dresses !

One of them you will find below the other i plan to wear the the tea party on the weekend and promise to document the day that will be filled with LOTS of delightfully bad food and great friends :-) The paper garlands will be making a presence at this party and we have a long way to go with icing Red Velvet cupcakes and putting the coconut on Caramel Coconut slice !

drifting through life...almost ghost like ...


fickle kind finish last....

Human beings are fickle characters. I just learnt this recently in quite a few turn of events. Fickle in nature, emotion and action – I believe with age this increases. I think this is why I find it peaceful to photograph children. Maybe there isn’t always a motive behind their way of being they simply exist within a moment.


I admit I to am fickle in nature but I am going to make a conscious effort to be less. This maybe comes with confidence and knowing what you want and not settling. I often speak of not settling for something that isn’t just quite right – something’s are so close to perfect it’s easy to make excuses for the little things – but once you know what is amazing you should not compromise. Amazing is just that.


Where for art though truthful aspiring people… the world needs you … or at least I do.
