Banana and Hazelnut Smoothie. Published On Monday, April 14, 2014. The Banana and Hazelnut Smoothie is an amazing breakfast smoothie! I stumbled across it by accident, because I didn't actually have enough ingredients to make one of my other ones. And its turned out to be one of my favourites! 1 x frozen bananas. 5 fresh pitted dates. A handful of almonds. A handful of hazelnuts. 1 x can of coconut milk. Half a tray of ice.

Published On Thursday, October 23, 2014. On Friday afternoon last week, the time finally came to find out whether Joe and I are expecting a little Boy or Girl! We had been waiting (not so) patiently for what feels like forever! We usually have a family dinner night on Friday nights, so on Thursday we planned out how we would tell some of the immediate family the following day, and we started preparing for that on Thursday night. It was so beautiful! We had to pick up a few extra things for the reveal, so...

SMUDGE: Beach Dates

http://www.smudgeblog.com/2015/03/beach-dates.html

Published On Wednesday, March 04, 2015. My favourite kind of date days are the spontaneous ones. The ones where you both decide to just go do something, and get out of the house. Today, we stopped in at the Dome for a cool drink, and then walked along the beach together. The west coast of Australia is seriously beautiful. We are so blessed to live in a country like this. As this was most likely our last date before Baby arrives, we thought we'd make the most of it, and take our camera along for the ride.

http://www.smudgeblog.com/2014/03/green-smoothie.html

Published On Tuesday, March 11, 2014. The best thing about making your own healthy smoothies, is that you actually know exactly what goes in them.

One completely healthy meal on the go for you! 1 x frozen banana. 5 or 6 fresh pitted dates. A handful of almonds. I have offic...

SMUDGE: The Final Bump

http://www.smudgeblog.com/2015/07/the-final-bump.html

Published On Thursday, July 09, 2015. It's pretty crazy to think that just 16 weeks ago, we hadn't yet had the privilege to properly meet our little Isla Mae. We hadn't been lucky enough to see her eyes smile, or hear her laugh. She is such a character, such a joy, and such a blessing. Before my belly burst, we had the incredible Anita of Mayfly Photography. We had no idea what we were getting ourselves in to! Parenthood is quite the adventure. So many learning curves, so many new experiences! As soon as...

Screen Print Your Own Wall Hanging! Published On Tuesday, May 26, 2015. I'd been wanting to make something to hang up on the wall for a little while now, but it's amazing how little time you have when you have a two month old to take care of!
