Don’t you just love weddings? Like so many thousands around the globe, my daughter and I were glued to the television on Friday night, to watch the Royal Wedding. Such a beautiful couple, Cate & Will, and so clearly in love with each other! A photo snapped on my iPhone
I just love that when some people see cupcakes they think of me! Over the last couple of weeks I had my niece send me photos of cupcakes in Macca’s at Champs Elysees, when she was in Paris on her honeymoon…
Last week was the first week of school holidays and we had the wonderful opportunity of spending it in Thredbo! Although we thought it would be a little too early for snow, we actually got to see some right at the top of Mount Kosciuszko. This is a photo of my hubby and I with […]
Since my life-changing cancer experience, life itself has become so much more magical, and utterly precious to me. In a way, there is a “pre-cancer me” and “post-cancer me”. I now try to savour every moment and experience all I can, whereas pre-cancer, I always seemed to be chasing after something better, or bigger, or […]

But first, I need to share some evidence of Greek generosity, which I talked about here a little while ago. Our Greek friend Arthur (who was mentioned in that post) […]
Instead of sharing any cupcake creations or other sweet treats this week, I feel like sharing my Fish Curry recipe, which is one of my family’s favourite meals. Sometimes life calls for serious foods rather than sweet ones! Whenever I’m not feeling energetic or am troubled by goings on in the world and simply can’t […]
I was thinking back on my niece’s Kitchen Tea last week, and I recalled how generous people were. Generous with food, generous with gifts and generous with their love for the bride-to-be. Generosity is a phenomenon that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! Photo courtesy of stock.xchng
Spoilt again this week, I was taken to lunch by a friend on one occasion and on another, one of my nieces took me to lunch at a place I’d been wanting to try for ages! Not only was it a blast to catch up with this friend who I hadn’t seen for about 3 […]
