The upside of down

It's also been a very big week (well actually 2 years) for my very close friend Tamra Mercieca, she has just received a delivery of 950 copies of her first book 'The upside of down - A personal journey and toolkit to overcome depression'. She is now a published author!!

A BIG congratulations to you Tamz and anyone can now purchase the book online or wait until Feb and it will be in all good bookstores. Also, coming up on December 9th is the book launch - at the Order of Melbourne -you're all invited!!

Catching Up

Can't believe I haven't mentioned the fabulous Passionfoods work dinner (love the new website guys!) last Monday night. It was the first time I'd been to soulmama on St Kilda's foreshore and it's a stunning space catering to vegetarian and vegan diets. The food was incredible - there is a big buffet that you select your dishes from - a wonderful combination of salads, dahl, curries and the place has a really relaxed vibe.

On Thursday night Tamra and I began making our vintage sundresses - I'm looking forward to strolling down to Williamstown in the short one this summer!

A very very big week

Gamon St

Well Trav's birthday week started on Friday night -we me friends at Docklands for a wind down drink before hitting DFO Southwharf for a new wardrobe - on the way hope we stopped at Touks for a very late dinner and coasted home on the bikes with no helmets - that felt so nice!

Saturday was a beautiful day to ride to work and then we caught up with the old gang at Tracy's housewarming in Sunbury.

Sunday saw us meeting our new Maidstone mates at Fairbairn Park and Rossi was desperately trying to get in the water with Albert the Golden Retriever and Toast the Pomeranian X. Then we went and saw Tamz's friend's band Jarek play at Hardimans in Kensington before spending a delicious afternoon at Little Creatures Brewery Hall in Fitzroy. The Rogers Amber Ale is my new favourite and I'm wondering whether they actually hire out those cute red bikes hanging out in the entrance?

Monday night I missed tennis again because I was busy baking Trav a chocolate tart for work, and an espresso syrup chocolate cake for last night (the cake wasn't a bit success, I think it needs to be eaten when still warm).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY LOVE!!! xxx
Tuesday morning I awoke nice and early and knocked together a fabulous bacon & egg breakfast in bed for my Love! I gave him a smart Fossil wallet, we then met family at the Station Hotel for an amazing dinner. I had wagyu beef rostbiff and it was superb! Coffee and cake at our place afterwards. He was spoiled with all sorts of gifts - mostly beer and cash!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAMES!!
Today is the day my new Pashley Princess Sovereign will arrive in Port. The coundown is really on now - hopefully I'll be riding it around this weekend! Oh - and it was even spotted this morning...see?
