I was a child of the late 70s/early 80s and I gotta say we had some awesome stuff
Cool toys (& I still have many of these), cool movies & TV shows, the clothes (well maybe not lol)
and then the important world events like the falling of the Berlin Wall

Ahh the memories
(I honestly wasn’t sure what to write about yesterday so am skipping a day again)
Today I’m cheating a little. I’m going to point you over to a post I wrote last year about my little town.
Today’s theme is National BBQ Week so I’m sharing some BBQ goodness I found on Pinterest
Bbq Onion Steaks with Honey-Mustard Sauce
Pineapple barbecue bacon burgers
Seriously just go look yourself 😉 soooooo many ideas
This recipe is a family favourite. I often remember having Chinese Chicken & Corn soup especially of a weekend. The recipe comes from the Women’s Weekly Chinese Cooking Class cookbook (I LOVE this recipe book – I cook so many recipes from it) but the recipe below is my modification to it.
It’s a winter warmer and so easy to use leftovers from a roast chicken or buy a roast chook from Coles or Woolies.

Oops *blush* I kinda forgot to blog for a few days. Oh well – life happens hey 😉
Today I’m catching up with a few topics
1. My workspace.
Currently my laptop is set up on the dining room table. More room to spread out when I have paperwork everywhere. Plus side, I can use my laptop while I’m scrapping 😀
2. Role Models.
My mum. She has been thru so lots and is so strong.
3. Collaborate. hmm yeah well I missed this one
4. What’s in my bag?
Nappies, wipes, change of clothes for Miss A, lip gloss, deodorant, keys, wallet, some snacks from soccer yesterday.
5. Health living.
I’ll be back later today with a new recipe. It’s kinda healthy. Very yummy and a winter warmer. (ETA recipe is up here)
6. Wanderlust.
Where I’ve been – all the states in Australia except NT, New Zealand
Where I’d love to go – New Zealand again, Canada, Scotland, Stone Henge, Greece (namely Crete), Italy
With so much negativity on the news I thought I’d share a bit of a feel good story
Gay Tasmanian couple seal dying wish with New Zealand wedding
Now I don’t care if you are for or against gay marriage, I just think it is lovely these two got the chance to carry out a dying wish.
My pamper list:
I’m sure I’ve been asked that before. A long time ago. Hubby & I don’t do date nights. We probably should.
Dinner & a movie would be nice. Maybe I should schedule one in. December sounds good. Namely cause the new Star Wars movie comes out 😉
Do you do date nights?
Today’s prompt is photography so I thought I’d share my #100HappyDays so far…

So I racked my brain trying to think of some tips I could share and I really couldn’t think of anything original so I put off blogging yesterday. Then I saw today’s prompt and I thought OMG beauty & fashion blogging :/
I’m not a fashion/beauty blogger at all.
Anywho…. here’s my top tips for beauty sourced from Pinterest 😉
