St Patrick's Day was never that big in Australia, so aside from wearing my lucky green undies every birthday and having an Irish name, I never really thought it was much of a big deal. But now I'm on Instagram my feed is FULL of green greetings from celebs. Mind you, they don't come until... Continue Reading →

I'm trying to blank out the whole womb angina thing that's unfolding today. La, la, la ... Trying ... Actually, I'm a teeny bit nervous. OK, a LOT nervous.

Enough with the Halloween hate
It's only early on October 31, but my Facebook feed is already peppered with Halloween hate. Lots of "I don't get it" and "It's not an Australian custom" moans.
