My four year old son is in love. No. I am absolutely serious. He denies they are simply friends. You see, he loves her. Though I have explained that he is allowed to have friends that are girls, it doesn’t have to mean she is his girlfriend. But no; it seems that she is. I…

MUMMY BLOGGERS OVER?
FAR FROM IT. I am a blogger. In fact; why dress it down? I am a ‘mummy’ blogger. (*gasp) Sure; I hear some of you moan; don’t pigeon hole; don’t under-value yourself, don’t be gender exclusive; don’t exploit your kids (don’t even go there!) …blah blah blah, etc. But you know what? I write. My…
MASTERCHEF : AIN’T ALL IT’S CRACKED UP TO BE
In honour of the Masterchef Australia 2016 Finale Tuesday night, I whacked the PJ’s on early, totally owned the couch and cracked open a celebratory packet of twisties (original cheese flavour of course; because, hey, I am totally on trend with food). Having served up a mystery bolognese for dinner that I found in the…
WHAT EXACTLY IS ‘SCHOOL READY?’
HOW I PLAN TO ‘PREPARE’ MY SON FOR THE BIG DAY And so it begins. I did the tours. I completed the application forms. Pre-school drop-off has been abuzz with polite and subtle questioning about where our kids will be going to Primary School next year. Now it seems the reality that my ‘baby’ is…
“YOU’VE BEEN PRANKED!”
VOTING IN THE FEDERAL ELECTION As an Australian, I am legally required to vote. That’s how important my voice is. So I have a little to say in regards to my recent experience at the polling booth. Sure. I did my research. I righteously strolled past the placards and ‘how to vote for…
TO YOU AND YOU AND YOU
Suddenly, it occurred to me, that I was possibly an Unmumsy Mum. Whilst I positively know for a fact that My Kid Doesn’t Poop Rainbows, I was facing groundhog day, day in, day out, and I felt that my life was fast becoming a solid pattern of Whinge Whinge Wine. I was drowning….
LIVE FOR LILY ; LOVE LASTS FOREVER
No blog as such today. My heart is too angry and sad. Sad for a friend, a sister, a wife, a daughter and a mother (and so much more). Today a beautiful, fun, strong, cheeky, quick witted and brave woman was laid to eternal rest. Scooty; you will forever be shooting three pointers in…
THE REAL ‘REAL’ HOUSEWIVES OF SYDNEY
Word on the street, is that The Real Housewives of Sydney is set to hit our screens. Have to say, I’m a little surprised that I have not been called yet. Wouldn’t that make for a riveting show? Wouldn’t that see you all rushing to your remote controls to hit series record? Let’s see…. Here are…
MOTHERHOOD; WHEN MIRACLES HAPPEN
Sometimes motherhood doesn’t quite roll as we plan. My sister bought a female rabbit and a female guinea pig at Easter and…well…this happened….
AND THE WINNER IS….SYDNEY!!!
Be careful what you wish for…. I had a bit of the ‘ho-hums’ recently…. You know those bad boys? We came back from holidays, and I looked around and thought, ‘here we go again…same old, same old. GROUNDHOG DAY!’ I decided I am one of those people who crave a bit of a change every…
