the end was just the beginning
Ooops. Sorry about the no-blog thing yesterday. I got myself all confused and thought it was Valentine's Day so I was going to write a "Valentine's Day 2014 Celebrity Style" blog ... and couldn't understand why none of the celebs were posting romantic pics on social media. By the time I realised my error half the... Continue Reading →
I fell off the Feb Fast wagon on Monday night. Damn, I'd been so good. But there are some dramas that call for pinot gris. And guacamole. And more pinot gris. My sister - bless her - took me out to Small Bar for some much-needed sibling support. I swore I wasn't going to overdo... Continue Reading →
Things happened over the weekend that I haven't felt quite ready to talk about until now. Much easier to bury myself in celebrity fluff. Like the moment my dog Charlie trotted inside from the garden and dropped a piece of one of my murdered chooks at my feet ... bone, flesh, feathers ... That wasn't... Continue Reading →
Too many great pics this weekend, had to spread the joy ... >> Gwen Stefani shared this pic on Instagram before her baby shower, captioned: "baby shower!!! #can't believe im pregs thanku Shelli Azoff for a beautiful #girlyday =blessed" Gwen's held the shower at the Hotel Bel Air in Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon. Her famous guests included Gwyneth Paltrow, Nicole Richie, Rachel... Continue Reading →
OK, I'm preparing for the deluge from people bitching that I've got it soooooo wrong. But I swear, I See Fire by Ed Sheeran must be pretty damn close to the most beautiful song EVER (despite what my nephew said about it not suiting the movie it was written for, the latest Hobbit installment).Listen to it...

OK, confession, I'm not the romantic type. At. All. Flowers are wasted on me. Diamonds aren't my best friend. The last time Husband and I celebrated Valentine's Day was back in the Neolithic Age. And this happened (As originally told in Sucking The Romance Out Of Valentine's Day) We stopped celebrating Valentine’s Day after going... Continue Reading →
It's been a bit of a week so I'm bringing my weekly celeb round-up forward to give my exhausted pscyhe a rest. Here's a bit of fluff to brighten your (and my) Friday ... >> It's come to this - Jonas Brothers singer Kevin Jonas announced the birth of his newborn daughter Alena Rose with... Continue Reading →
I saw a movie this morning that gave me terrible flashbacks. It was about a creative prima donna. There have been WAY too many of those in my life. I am so over people who think their "genius" means they can act however they like and should be coddled for it. You know the types:... Continue Reading →
The youngest is turning 8 next month and wants to celebrate with a party at Macquarie Ice Rink. She's a bit obsessed with ice skating, despite getting limited opportunity to indulge her need for frozen speed. And whizzing around the rink on the Voyager of The Seas last month (hello? I know!) sealed the deal.... Continue Reading →
As the youngest sobbed in my arms over the loss of her chooks yesterday, Husband noticed something jump in her hair. He nabbed it surreptitiously and gave me a LOOK. "Flea?" I mouthed? "Nit?" he mouthed back. When the sobs had eased he slunk off to the bedroom to consult with Dr Google and returned... Continue Reading →
