Riding in Cars with Kids: Win the NEW Safe-n-Sound Tourer – CLOSED
So I’m really uptight about carseats for kids. In particular, I am uptight about them being installed properly. Naturally, I’m worried about safety and also, about Bren getting it right. Poor Bren. He is actually a very competent human being, but his competency is no match for my uptightness. And then there was the […]
On breastfeeding: stories from the frontline
My first thought about breastfeeding was this: I don’t like having my nipples touched therefore I probably won’t like breastfeeding. It wasn’t that I thought breastfeeding would be weirdly sexual, it was just that I believed that the sensation, sexual or otherwise, would be unpleasant for me. That was back in 2007 when […]
Coffee Break (Your Face If I Don’t Get My Coffee NOW): A giveaway

The area is famous for both – some would argue one less so than the other but then, those people obviously don’t appreciate Thor without a shirt on. Personally, seeing both the penguins AND the Hemsworths in their natural habitat is on […]
Mother’s Day Gift Ideas aka stuff Brendon should buy me + a giveaway! CLOSED
It's not that I don't love a good Mother's Day stall gift. Because who can say no to a vial of Fairy Wishing Dust (glitter) and a pair of earrings that cost $3 and made my ears so infected I considered having them surgically removed? Of course, I'm joking about the earrings! I never actually […]
WIN!: an entire term of swimming lessons with Paul Sadler Swimland CLOSED
I took a stroll down memory lane thinking back to when the fam and I headed to Paul Sadler Swimland in Essendon for some lessons with the swimming experts. Harlow was so little! And so chubby! We had so much fun and it reminded me of how important swimming lessons are but […]
