express yourself...

I'm late to discover many things... but I've semi-recently discovered Nigella Lawson in particular, her Nigella Express DVDs. Of course, I knew of her, and her baking which seemed to me to involve a lot of butter and chocolate... but this 'Express' series impresses me! Haven't yet cooked anything from her Nigella Express book but have spent almost an hour looking through it!

Had been looking for a canvas-like bag for some time that was not too large... and found this in a little shop at Glenelg called The Ivy Room, but produced by Apple & Bee. Great for library visits, and general collections of 'stuff' that you carry around... Not a bad piece of advice either...

Just for you - designs from the heart

I was so excited the other day to discover afresh at my new library, this book I discovered earlier at another library (yes, I love libraries I confess...). It's a lovely collection of more than 400 individual projects collected by Pablo Correa featuring objects, cards, illustrations, posters, photographs, graffiti and logos! So much inspiration.


Now how can I get a copy? 


yummmm...

Have been noticing this fine looking new Winter Menu 2011 from CIBO cafes upon my (many) visits and finally thought to take one as a souvenir the other night... So lovely and enticing...  Now I need to make a breakfast or lunch date. Anyone???
Ah! I need to visit Italy soon...




More than 'ok' stockings

Not just 'ok' - these stocking are more than ok! An online purchase from Little Rock Boutique which I discovered from the latest Frankie magazineLove this branding! OK OK originated in Melbourne, Australia . Makes use of 64% Australian cotton!

New Sunnies!


Was looking for this particular type of sunnies (pictured) and finally found them for a good price - happy to discover as a bonus, this cute owl case came included!
