In the Pink

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend? Mine was spent with friends and family, which is always lovely and a real treat. On Friday I spent the evening with the lovely Holly, who was full of tales of Australian travel and loaded with awesome gifts. She gifted me a copy of the very cool Frankie magazine, which  I’m now hooked on! I love the writers tone and the amazing photography. She also introduced me to the Australian favourites, Tim Tams and I can safely say I am hooked on those too – shame my packed just ran out! The tip of biting the ends off and sucking your tea up through it, like a straw is genius (messy, but genius).

Then I was treated to a lovely visit from my parents, which always brings a huge smile to my face as those guys make me laugh so much. We had cakes, pizza, biscuits and showed them all the news bits I’d bought for my lounge. Overall, a very productive weekend ending with a lovely brunch with Miles at the delicious new brunch hotspot, Caravan. Man, those guys make a mean baked eggs and don’t even get me started on the cakes! The pictures of my strange, pink, milkshake potion is just one of the concoctions that I blend up daily for my morning feed. I’m back riding my bike to work everyday so a power smoothie before I hit the road is advisable, otherwise I end up wanted to eat my own arm by the time I arrive at work. Today I stuck a paper straw in, the colours really jumped out at me and made me smile –  and reach for the camera!
