Phew! Apparently it’s been three weeks since my last post (which was about people stealing my work! 😠). That’s almost like a whole isolation period and a bit! Because it was. 😅😂 A couple Sundays ago, my partner and I went to a birthday lunch, followed by some shopping. I […]

Well, it’s official- I’m going to have a lot of chillies. 😅 The first one is starting to go red. I’ve already started offering them to other people, so hopefully they’ll end up in happy bellies. As mentioned, I’m not much of a spice head, so I definitely won’t be […]

Well, as predicted, it’s been a very mild summer thus far. I’m not complaining- I hate warm weather, so this is great. 😂 So far the heirloom tomatoes I planted are growing like crazy. No 🍅 as of yet, though. You can see strawberry plants either side, but so far […]

It’s that time of year again when I write a reflective piece on the year that was. But… has it really been a year since the last one? Well- not exactly. The last one was posted on the 30th of December 2020, so I still have a week or so […]

Yesterday was my first day back at work since our tearoom became a Tier 1/2 exposure site and people had to isolate at home. I missed it all because I was fortunately on leave. We’re now wearing N95/P2 masks while at work, and bloody hell- mad respect for all the […]

Well- we’re still in lockdown, and I’m still on annual leave. 🥳 Which means it’s time to do some culinary experimentation!! And do other hobby activities, like editing that story I was writing back in June last year… or going for a walk… And enjoying the earth rumble beneath me- […]

I work in Melbourne (for the most part), as an essential worker- in the healthcare/ medical science field. Given I’ve currently returned to my regional Victorian hometown, I drive my car to and from on the days that I work. It’s a bit of a drive, sure, but it’s relatively […]
