Blue and Grey Sunday





I fell in love with Titirangi again this Sunday. Blues and greys just seem to ease out of these photos.

Fill In The Blanks Friday


This week has gone super fast! You can take part in the blanks over here.


1.  Right now the weather where I live is     cold but sunny most days. Spring is definitely in the air and I love the sense of possibility the nicer weather brings.

2.  The best piece of advice I've been given is    my two really good friends (my best mate and another who is my oldest friend) sat me down last year and said something along the lines of "some people don't deserve to be in your life. don't beat yourself up over it. move on." I really needed to hear that.

3.  My most favorite person in all the world is    my best friend and my little sister get equal favourite.

4. If I were to have a "mission statement" for my life, it would be     do whatever it is that makes you happy, be purposeful and remember that live is a verb. Something like that anyway.

5. My most favorite item in my closet is  a red snuggly circle scarf I got given on my birthday on Wednesday and my mustard coloured cardi.

6. The best cure for a bad day is   step outside and get some fresh air. Works every time for me. 


7.  Today is   almost over which means relaxing. Yus!

Food! Now that I have your attention...


I was quite stoked to come across this free e-book today. I'm such a foodie and great food with less ingredients appeals to my budget. You can download it yourself here, just remember to share the love.

Happy birthday to me


24 today. I like the place I've got to after 24 years. Here's to another year :-)

Corners of my world

My favourite blog posts are when bloggers show a sneak peek of their home. So I thought I would share a little bit of my space this month, starting off with my bedroom.

 My bedside table: Jasmine from our garden, what I've been reading and my pandora bracelet.

 I have my degree by my desk to motivate me during this year of post-graduate study. I really should get it framed at some point. That vase and elephant are probably my two favourite belongings. The elephant I obtained from my ex boyfriend (note the word obtained as he didn't exactly give it to me...) and the vase I bought at a craft market last year.

 Books. I have a growing collection in my room and an already full bookcase in the lounge.
 My wardrobe door has a selection of pretty photos, postcards and other things I find inspiring. The drawing at the top is a picture a little girl drew for me at work.

 I like lying in my bed, staring at the world map and dreaming of the places I will visit one day. My room also gets really nice afternoon sun.

 My collection of scarves. I think they are pretty.

I love this print, I bought it at the Splore Music Festival to remember the amazing time I had there at the start of the year. I was blessed with free tickets from a friend who had a stall at the market and felt very lucky.

My bed is probably the best place in the world in my opinion. I have a pretty sweet duvet cover too, don't I?
