Ciao Mummy: June 2011
http://ciaomummy.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
An online journal, creative outlet and general place to express and unleash my thoughts. Oh and a celebration of life as a mum! Tuesday, June 28, 2011. A trip down memory lane. New cafés – there’s always something new and fabulous. And oh how I enjoyed my life there – weekends were simply mine, all mine to enjoy! Lazing about at our old house in Paddo. So I was thoroughly excited to be heading back to re-visit my old stomping ground and catch up with old friends – it was all planned out (not by me ...

Ciao Mummy: March 2011

An online journal, creative outlet and general place to express and unleash my thoughts. Oh and a celebration of life as a mum! Thursday, March 24, 2011. Something old made new again. Having a baby can be costly, especially your first. I wouldn’t have believed how much stuff we’d need to look after our little cherub! Then we gave it an undercoat – again, simply a side each. All in all, a great little project we worked on together that cost us very little and gave a beautiful result. Cost’s –. Paint ̵...

An online journal, creative outlet and general place to express and unleash my thoughts. Oh and a celebration of life as a mum! Wednesday, November 23, 2011. You know you’re old when…. Birthdays… I recently had one. And ever since I hit the age of about hmmm, 29, I suddenly decided that they weren’t as much fun anymore. Why? Duh, because I’m not overly keen on wrinkles (plus I swear I’m still 27 and the universe is playing some kind of sick joke on me! So while I’ve been contemplating my own aging ...

An online journal, creative outlet and general place to express and unleash my thoughts. Oh and a celebration of life as a mum! Tuesday, May 31, 2011. Uh-oh, I baked… you've been warned! The discovery that I have been baking is generally met with about the same enthusiasm as the discovery that one needs a root-canal – mostly dread and trepidation. Oh and a pain in the mouth! I don’t much like being told what to do and I think I’m pretty pro-active when it comes to leading a healthy, more sust...Um, perha...

An online journal, creative outlet and general place to express and unleash my thoughts. Oh and a celebration of life as a mum! Monday, September 5, 2011. Life with children and furry animals. It wasn’t intentional, it’s just that when a baby comes into the house, everything else takes a backseat because pretty much all of your attention is focused on caring for them. Any time left is a bonus and used for sleep! Monday, September 05, 2011. Mary C. Nasser. September 8, 2011 at 5:04 PM. I invite you to che...

Wednesday, August 10, 2011. 8220;A well kept house is a life misspent…” It’s a perfect excuse for a messy house! While I pictured our own messy house, I was overcome with feelings of inadequacy as a stay-at-home mum. Why aren’t I this organised and neat? I kept asking my friend, “where do you put all your crap? Struggle to plan and be super organised like my very. Is it a part o...

When your partner’s a pastry chef and a brilliant one at that, how is one to ever bake a cake without feeling the pressure of comparison? It’s a question I ask myself every time I bake. Am I being silly? Birthday mind you), she asked in amusement “Whose birthday cake are you baking? So why did I care? What I realized, with some...

An online journal, creative outlet and general place to express and unleash my thoughts. Oh and a celebration of life as a mum! Wednesday, January 19, 2011. A deeper sense of empathy. There are no words to describe the overwhelming pain the mere thought of this induces. How do you ever recover from such a tragedy? It goes against nature and against every single instinct you have as a parent. These recent events have reminded me how important. Wednesday, January 19, 2011. Sunday, January 9, 2011. This con...
