Taco Tuesday at Honkytonks

January 15, 2016March 7, 2016Leave a comment

When I heard about Taco Tyesday at Honkytonks I got pretty excited! $10 gets you two tacos and a beer... Even though Indon't drink beer, this sounds like a pretty tasty deal to me, especially on the day before payday. For those who have not been to or heard of Honkytonks, it is a Mexican … Continue reading Taco Tuesday at Honkytonks

Weekday Dinner at Little Brooklyn in Kingston

January 8, 2016March 7, 2016Leave a comment

As many of my readers may have guessed, I love anything vintage and vintage inspired. My favourite decades are the 1920s, 1950s and 1980s. I particularly love how there are vintage inspired restaurants and cafes popping up everywhere at the moment. Little Brooklyn is a funky restaurant and bar in one of the restaurant suburbs … Continue reading Weekday Dinner at Little Brooklyn in Kingston

Friday Lunch at Treehouse Bar Canberra

November 20, 2015December 8, 2015Leave a comment

It seems that I have been treating myself to a sit down lunch at least once a fortnight, normally the day after pay day. While it is good to save money, I work pretty hard so it's nice to treat myself and properly get away from work for a hour. Recently I went for lunch … Continue reading Friday Lunch at Treehouse Bar Canberra

Kinn Thai Canberra

September 25, 2015November 1, 2015Leave a comment

Kind Thai is a fairly new restaurant situated in the Canberra Centre restaurant strip on Bunda Street. It took over the spot that once was Wagamama. I believe that Kinn Thai is part of some kind of chain of restaurants. I recently went there for a group dinner to catch up with a lot if … Continue reading Kinn Thai Canberra

High Tea at The Tea Salon Sydney

September 18, 2015September 18, 2015Leave a comment

I've been to quite a few hens weekends. A lot of them have been in Sydney as well. I definitely had fun at the last one I attended, which including high tea at The Tea Salon. This is not your traditional high tea. It is set right in the centre of shops in the Pitt … Continue reading High Tea at The Tea Salon Sydney

Cupping Room Friday Lunch

September 11, 2015September 14, 2015Leave a comment

There's been a lot of buzz around The Cupping Room in Canberra City. Everyone is always posting Instagram pics and checking in on Facebook at this location, plus there are a heap of blog posts on this place. Although it is just around the corner from my work, I never really think about going there … Continue reading Cupping Room Friday Lunch

NAIDOC Week Function at Canberra Convention Centre

July 17, 2015August 23, 2015Leave a comment

It's been a while since I've been to a function at the Canberra National Convention Centre. I was lucky enough to be invited to the Aboriginal Hostels Limited NAIDOC Week luncheon. I was invited to go through the work organised tickets and went along with 5 other people from work. It was a terrible, cold … Continue reading NAIDOC Week Function at Canberra Convention Centre

Friday Night Sharing Plates at Soju Girl

June 26, 2015August 23, 20151 Comment

I remember when Soju Girl opened a few years ago. It was considered a hip new place to go. I went when it was still in its early days with a small group of people. Back then I enjoyed quite a few cocktails as well as the share style meals. I was invited to go … Continue reading Friday Night Sharing Plates at Soju Girl

Sunday Afternoon Tea at Adore Tea

May 29, 2015May 23, 2015Leave a comment

I love Adore Tea. It is nestled in the pretty Gold Creek Village and is a favourite among many Canberrans. They offer a variety of sweet and savoury treats and meals, but most importantly, a huge selection of tea to try. Their tea menu is quite expansive and sometimes it is difficult trying to pick … Continue reading Sunday Afternoon Tea at Adore Tea

Breakfast Stop in Nowra

March 19, 2015May 25, 2015Leave a comment

I recently travelled to the Kangaroo Valley for a Wedding and it was such a beautiful place to visit. But, as I have experienced from other small towns, there are limited places for gluten intolerant people to eat. The pie shop looked amazing, but unfortunately I could not enjoy this delicious smelling goodness. My partner … Continue reading Breakfast Stop in Nowra

Flashback Friday to a different city, different girl. At this point in my life I was sort of lost and trying to figure out my purpose. I stopped enjoying life and just existed. When this photo was taken I was starting to struggle with a lot of aspects in my life and because it happened gradually, I didn’t realise how much it affected me. Fast forward to 2019 and I’m in a much better position mentally, physically, financially, spiritually... but I’m still grateful for the struggles because it’s made me the person I am today. πŸ’« . . . . . #flashbackfriday #theoldme #liveyourbestlife #manifestdreams #movingforward #positivevibes #positivity #goodvibesonly #happiness #lovinglife #walkyourtruepath #success #expectgreatthings #changeyourlife #makeachange #manifesting #gratitude #styleyourmind

All dressed up and no where to go πŸ’‹ I was planning on entering a pin up contest today but the lack of transportation and the event being a 1-1.5 hr drive from my place meant that I had to give it a miss :( really hoping that I can make a pin up contest soon! . . . . . #pinup #vintage #retro #selfiesunday #redlips #pearls #beautybum #beautywithme #beautyblog #beautyblogger #makeupmafia #makeupbyme #lookoftheday #wakeupandmakeup #dressyorface #lookamillion #beautyjunkie #bbloggers
