On Saturday night I had dinner with a group of my forever friends from High School. We chatted, drank wine and ate good food, including dessert. We then decided to move our party to a club for a drink or 7, just like the good ol’ days. We lasted five minutes. It was too crowded….
Mummy Time
BEACH. WINE. REPEAT
So I dug a large hole. I dressed in a suit and lay down in it. Manure was poured over me and I practised my meditation. It was titled, “Homage to my Father”. Yep. Right at that moment, upon over-hearing this sterling conversation, I knew that my weekend escape to Byron Bay had…
I’m a mummy ; GET ME OUT OF HERE!
Occasionally we actually leave the house for a dinner date. Whilst this may appear quite romantic, I am likening it more to a mummy ‘mental health’ break. Just lucky I have someone to come along with me who, with just a few squirts of aftershave and an ironed shirt (that had nothing to do with…
NO TINDER AT KINDER
We have agreed to see other people. It is a mutual decision and we are both comfortable with it. You see, the kids are getting older and previous date nights of cheap prosecco and takeaway at home on a Friday night no longer seems to scratch that itch. Sure, it’s easy to stick with the…
QUEEN OF THE ROAD
This post was featured on : The sun was shining. The day lay empty in front of me. The lure of the open ride was calling, so I popped the shades on, tapped into the Thelma and Louise vibe (either/or…not fussy…they both ogled Brad Pitt…) and cranked up George Michael’s, “FREEDOM”. I belted it out,…

THE SUNDAY SESH
. The door clicks shut behind me and it takes all my will power not to run. I can hear the “find your shoes/put your shoes on/where are your hats?/go to the toilet” opera belting behind me and my feet fly to the lift. I slap that down button. “SUNSCREEN! WHO NEEDS SUNSCREEN?” smashes through…
STRUTTING MY STUFF IN SYDNEY
Bacon was on my mind again. Here I was. Starting my health kick, and I was fantasising about a bacon and egg McMuffin. But instead of a glorious cooked breakfast, I was doing what all the beautiful people did, and knocking out a coastal walk along the eastern beaches of Sydney. After a night of…

LAPPING IT UP AT THE LANGHAM
Click here to check out the oh so lovely Langham Hotel Once upon a time, back in 2013, CinderAnna was elbow deep in nappies, toddler tantrums and Wiggles songs. Residing in the Melbourne ‘burbs, she was also hugely pregnant, exhausted and wildly fantasising about a full nights sleep, a hot meal that she didn’t have…
