Photo A Day: January Days 17 - 31

So this is my second half round up of Fat Mum Slim's January photo a day challenge that I've been playing along with by taking a photo every day of the month following the daily word prompts and sharing my photos on my Facebook and Instagram as well as doing a round up here on the blog.
 
I found it really helpful to save the word prompt image to the background of my phone to remind me what photo to take that day!

I really love the challenge of finding a photo every single day ... looking around me at work, home and play and photographing what my interpretation of the word is. I also love joining in on Instagram and adding the pretty filters which always make my photos look much more interesting I think!
 
 
You can find my January Days 1 - 16 here and these are my final round of up days 17 - 31 ...
 
 17. Tiny - Petite dessert I made at home
18. Happy Place - My home is my happy place because of who I share it with
19. Breakfast - Champagne breakfast at Crown Perth
20. To Do List - Laundry renovation to do list
  
21. Blue - Roses on my skirt
22. Nice - It's always nice to have flowers in the house
23. Bedtime - My bedtime just before midnight
24. Your Space - View from my office window
 
 25. A Taste of Summer - Mango and Lime Granita I made find the recipe here
26. Fun Stuff - Making cocktails on Australia Day
 
27. Something I bought - These gorgeous leather travel wallets
 
 28. Dinner - Getting treated to dinner with my Book Club girls because
I picked the favourite book last year
29. Window - Favourite window in the house is the one we put in when we renovated the bathroom as it has a view of the tree tops in the back yard
30. Best invention ever - Books! I love to get lost in the pictures and words
31. Polka Dot - My sexy but sweet heart polka dot PJs ...
and now the world has seen my PJs!

Photo A Day: January Days 1 - 16

Back in October last year I joined in with Fat Mum Slim for the first time and took a photo every day of the month following the daily word prompts. Well I've decided to play along again, this time with FMS January Photo A Day challenge and have been sharing my photos each day on my Facebook and Instagram ... and I'm doing a round up of them here.
 
Speaking of Instagram I don't know why I didn't join sooner it's so much fun to edit and use the filters on photos. Not to mention the inspiration I get from looking at everyone's photos, there's so many talented people out there and Instagram is a great way to find them!
 
 
Here are my first 16 photos from the January word prompts above ...
 
1. My favourite lazy weekend lunch at home eggs benedict
2. A trip to the Ikea sales
3. Driving through my home town
4. My word to live by is LIVE
 
5. Found the hooks to hang my bird cage
6. Happens everyday my man brings me coffee in bed

 
7. Upside Down baby you turn me Inside Out (magazine!)
8. My lucky number is 16 the day after my Birthday
 
9. The natural beauty of the botanic gardens in Wellington, New Zealand
10. The man made limestone and brick walls of our newly built courtyard
11. Looking down at my freshly painted toe nails and new sandals
12. My Sunday afternoon chocolate fix looks rather colourful
 
13. My lovable fur baby Lexi can always make me smile
14. 3 Things that are motivating me to walk to/from work each day
15. Black + White my new Ikea star lamp
16. This DIY canvass I made for the bedroom with it's sweet quote
"the sun couldn't rise without you, darling"

Point and Shoot: Upmarket at UWA

When: Sunday, 24 June 2012 @ 3pm
Where: Upmarket at UWA Gardens, Crawley




I made the most of the break in the cold winter days we've been  having and spent a sunny Sunday afternoon at the beautiful University of Western Australia where the Upmarket was on. I use to want to go to this Uni just to experience the UWA gardens, there are always weddings and events being held here it is so beautiful.

The Upmarket is held about every 3 months and is a showcase for all WA designers there was fashion, jewellery, kids stuff, stationary, bags, relishes and jams, so many things to look at. I bought myself some cookbooks which were taken by a WA photographer Lustre Publications and has stunning photos and recipes, some cool posters from Mokoh Designs I'm going to frame for gifts and some cute yellow rose stud earrings. I couldn't resist a take home pack of Cookie Dough Cookies they were so rich and indulgent, some banana and coconut chutney that is meant to go nice with curry, and some tomato chutney mmmm I love my savoury sauces. 

I went with my bestie and her little boy (in the snaps above and below) and I'm not a coochicoo kid type of person but I am tempted to steal this one somedays he's such a cool little dude :)

As for the rest of my weekend it was very quiet, I haven't been been feeling too crash hot so pretty much spent the whole time on the couch by the heater. The renovations continue outside and the renderer finished the garage (woo hoo) and Mr P got more work done on the roof. I'll share some progress photos with you soon.

Point and Shoot: Fancy Dress Party

When: Saturday, 16 June 2012 @ 8pm
Where: My place pre party drinks



This weekend we still chipped away at working on the garage extension, the plasterer came both Saturday and Sunday to screeded and render the inside of the new garage and it looks totally different (I'll share some photos soon). Mr P removed all the fascias and the rest of the gutters off the roof ready for the new ones to go on this week. I did housework which I won't bore you with other than to say it is impossible to get sheets dry in this rainy weather when you don't have a dryer. Sheets draped over my bar stools in the dining area wont win me any domestic godess awards but what else can I do? How do you dry your washing in winter?

Saturday night we went to a fancy dress letter 'F' party for friends who are heading off to travel around the rest of Australia so we threw a farewell party for them. I dressed up as Flower Power and Mr P was The Fonz, there were Fairies,  Fallen Angel, French Maid, Foxy Lady, Frog Man, A Fridge, Fried Eggs, Females, Fur Coat and some cheeky ones that are too rude to mention! I also made fairy bread which is obviously an Australian food because most of the partygoers had never heard of it before, they had no trouble eating it though :)

Point and Shoot: Clothes Swap Party

When: Friday, 8 June 2012 @ 7pm
Where: My friends clothes swap party


This is 8 bags of clothes/shoes/bags/belts etc that I cleared out of my wardrobe and took to my friends clothes swap party on Friday Night. All the girls were invited over and the only rules are that you bring a minimum of 1 item of clothing but you can take as much as you like. The Salvos are having a shortage in donations so she has organised for them to pick up anything that was leftover. It's a bit of a laugh I keep seeing my clothes in the piles that someone took last time, but brought back again to swap. It doesn't matter because it hasn't cost us a cent and we get a few new items for our wardrobes. I brought home only 1 bag of clothes and got rid of 8 I was being restrained!

As for the rest of my weekend both Saturday and Sunday from lunchtime until it got dark was spent on the roof laying the tiles over the new garage extension. They are finally on and secured and I don't need to worry about the wind and rain and winter weather that has been beating around Perth all weekend.

While the lads were outside working hard I was inside busying myself in the kitchen ... I made a big pot of wholesome chicken and vegetable soup and didn't even use a recipe and it turned out really tasty, a never fail cake which was fresh and orangey and a spicy chicken and prawn laksa. It's been a while since I've had a cookathon must be the cooler weather making me feeling like cooking up a storm.

Point and Shoot: Friends Birthday Pre Drinks

When:  Saturday, 2 June 2012 @ 7pm
Where:  My house for friends Birthday pre drinks


Here are some snaps my girlfriends took of Pete and I on Saturday night. We were home having pre drinks before heading out for a friends Birthday. Ironically it was this very weekend 4 years ago that I met Pete ... out at a nightclub for the same friends Birthday. I know meeting in a club is a bit cringy but I was instantly drawn over to sit next to him and as they say the rest is history :)

A few of my girlfriends came over for pre drinks and to get ready together. I forgot how much fun it is to get ready with the girls, have a few wines and straighten our hair and touch up the make up. I use to do it all the time when I had my bachelorette pad but don't get the opportunity as much anymore.

It was a good night out but I was home before midnight .... must be getting old!

Even better it's a long weekend here in Perth so I spent a relaxing Sunday on the couch flipping through magazines and watching movies and today I might be set on repeat and do it all again :)

How was your weekend?

Point and Shoot: Run for a Reason

When: Sunday, 27 May 2012 @ 8am
Where: HBF Run for a Reason, East Perth


Yep that's me front row on the left looking bright eyed and bushy tailed (behind the sunnies of course!) as I dragged myself out of bed at 6am on a Sunday morning to be part of the HBF Run for a Reason. It gets better, I didn't actually do the 14km run, I opted for the 4km walk which was enough exercise for me and meant I could still talk and walk at the same time! I went with some of my bookclub girls and we raised money for I-India Project Australia set up to help children in poverty in India through education. There were 20,100 people participating in the run/walk and the roads were closed off around East Perth so we could do the walk easily without worrying about traffic.

After the walk our group walked to The Royal for a champagne breakfast, this restaurant is right on the water inlet in East Perth and it was a perfect Autumn day fresh and chilly early on but once the sun came out it was such a perfect morning to be outside. I felt like I'd run a marathon and it wasn't even midday yet it's amazing what you can get through when you get out of bed early.


I'm not a serious fitness person but I have been pushing myself to walk half way home from work which is a 3.5km walk, if I do that just a few times a week then I'm on my way to buns of steel (I hope!) I really want to get fit before my cruise holiday in September and after getting up early on Sunday and feeling so good about it I really want to push myself to get up early and do a bit of exercise, I can do it I can do it!

Point and Shoot: Breakfast Of Champions

When: Saturday, 19 May 2012
Where: Alfresco in the Jarrah Jungle (home!)


Both Saturday and Sunday morning I enjoyed breakfast with my man outside under the patio. The weather has been so nice lately with gorgeous sunny days and chirpy mornings. Saturday I picked up some croissants from the bakery and layered them with ham, cheese and dijon mustard so delicious fresh from the oven and Sunday it was toasted bacon and egg sandwiches with lettuce, tomato, onions and melted cheese so naughty but oh so tasty!

After that leisurely breakfast I worked off those calories and get stuck into some work around the house .... I worked my butt off this weekend I even broke out in a sweat (which never happens I'm such a princess!). We were given the thumbs up to get the roof ready for construction next week (now that the garage walls are up) so we had to go gung ho to get it all ready for the work to start tomorrow.

Pete removed a third of the roof tiles off the roof and stacked them out of the way, fitted some huge tarps over the roof to stop anything getting in while the tiles are off, and pulled all the old gutters off. Meanwhile I didn't busy myself inside baking or basically avoiding the hard work this time, I got stuck in and did more than a few loads with the wheelbarrow dumping stuff into the skip bin and moved and stacked a few hundred tiles out the way. My little bones are aching today though, I can tell ya I am buggered!

I guess I can't really complain after last weeks Birthday festivities :)

Point & Shoot: My 32nd Birthday Do

When:  Saturday, 12 May 2012

It's been raining for weeks and then Saturday it was sunshine and a sunny 29 degrees an absolutely perfect day to be outside in the beer garden with friends and family!

That's me in the middle with friends Karli and Casey
I splashed out and bought myself a new blue dress and these highest shoes I've ever worn (and surprisingly comfy!)


This is some of my bookclub girls Ekta, Gabriella and Jane
who have introduced me to some fantastic reads and
best of all we have become great drinking friends


I'll never be too old for Birthday cake ... especially Bailey's Cheesecake mmmmm



Enjoying a wine and chat with my gorgeous Mum
Because it was Mother's Day the next day I had the florist wrap up an orange tulip for each of the Mums to take home with them


I had such a great time and the Birthday week continues :)

Point and Shoot

When: Saturday, 28 May 2011 @ 3.30pm
Where: Here, There and Everywhere

I ran around like a headless chook on Saturday, the morning was spent shopping for a couch for the man cave, didn't come home with one but have a good idea of what we want (well what Pete wants I keep forgetting he's the decorator in this room not me!). I found a funky mirrored frame for an art card I want to put up in the bedroom and a big decorative vase for the tv cabinet. Then we raced home for a quick outfit change and rushed back out the door to go to a lawn bowls comp which friends organise a few times a year. There are 30 of us and our names get drawn out of a hat and we split into teams and play against each other until there's a winner. Unfortunately we found out when we got there that we couldn't play after dark as the pitch they booked for us didn't have lights. So some had a few bowls in the hour of sunlight that was left in the day. We cooked up a BBQ dinner and enjoyed the club priced drinks. We didn't want the night to end so went back to a friend's house for drinks and a few games of ping pong. Great fun filled Saturday. No painting, sanding, washing or cooking took place what a nice change :) 

So your probably wondering what the photo has to do with my headless chook Saturday? Well I forgot to take my camera out with me on Saturday so I'm showing you this picture of what I carried with me all day, it's my lifesaver. I fill it with water, put it in the fridge, and it stays cold for up to 6 hours. It's great to take out shopping, out for a night, and it always provides a refreshing drink. Those plastic water bottles are not good for you and don't keep your drink cold. This is my lifesaver!

Point and Shoot

When: Saturday, 21 May 2011 @ 5pm
Where: My house

My Saturday started in the best way possible, breakfast with a girlfriend catching up over coffee and smoked salmon, creamy scrambled eggs, rocket and truffle oil on Ankara turkish bread it was delicious! Headed back home and as we finished painting the Man Cave during the week, I helped Pete hang up the new timber blinds in this room and then left him to give the floorboards a coat of Tung Oil to seal them. We'll be able to move furniture in and set it up next weekend once they've set fully yay. While Pete was working away I got my craft on for a friends 15 Birthday Party we were going to that night, I made her a Birthday Card and turned this candle box into a gift box for the bangles which are from Diva every teenagers (and mine!) favourite shop for bling. That night we headed to the party, not as guests but as chaperone's to make sure everyone behaved themselves. It was a fun night and everyone had a great time even us bodyguards ;) She absolutely loved her gift and put them on straight away, you know you've picked a good pressie when they do that!

Point and Shoot

When: Sunday, 15 May 2011 @ 6pm
Where: My House

This weekend's Point & Shoot is a special one it's on my Birthday! You have probably noticed from my last post that I get a wee bit excited at Birthday time and I thought I might grow out of it, but no I seem to spoil myself more and more each year, maybe its my way of dealing with getting older. My Birthweek started on Thursday when I thought I was going out for an easy dinner with the girls, but ended up at a surprise party with all my best friends there, Pete was cranking the BBQ, there were balloons and streamers, they made me a deliciously sweet and creamy birthday cake, wine and champagne and really special pressies and cards. I felt so special and loved by my friends for organising all that for me and I had absolutely no idea what they were up to! It had me on a high for days. Just had to share the build up with you all!

Now for this weekends Point & Shoot ..... Sunday morning I woke up in the Swan Valley with my gorgeous man and we had a stunning drive back  through the wineries to home. My parents came over and Pete cooked up a delicious brunch for us which we enjoyed outside with a glass of champagne. Another Birthday cake (I really need to get onto that x-trainer!). I opened my pressies and cards I got very spoilt! The Derby was on in the afternoon so we settled back to watch that and my team won .... Go the Eagles! Dinner was whatever I wanted (creamy chili prawn spaghetti mmmm delicious). A nice relaxing day after the last few days of being out and about was just what I wanted and to be with the people that mean the most to me on my Birthday was all that I could wish for.

I hope everyone else had a fabulous weekend too I'm off to catch up on your Point & Shoot now over at Sunny + Scout

Point and Shoot: Rockingham Foreshore


When: Sunday, 8 May 2011 @ 12.30pm
Where: Rockingham Foreshore

I had a pretty busy weekend with equal amounts of work and play! 

The ceiling and all the skirting in the man cave got painted so it is finally ready for some colour to go on the walls. The hallway cupboards got a coat of paint around the frame and as I was a bit eager to wallpaper the doors without painting the cupboard frame first it meant we had to remove the doors so I could take them outside and sand the back of them ready for painting. I'm a bit worried I'll get paint on the gorgeous wallpaper will have to be pretty careful. 

After working all day we partied all night ... one of my best mates and her hubby have been travelling the globe for the past year (and in the midst of it we joined them in Ibiza for a Spanish style wedding!) and have just come home so we had a welcome back dinner for them at Maya Masala in Northridge absolutely delicious Indian and lots of wine, then onto a friends party until the wee hours of the morning.

Sunday was Mother's Day and I spent the day with my Mum and Dad, Aunt and Uncle and Nanna down on the Rockingham foreshore. Mum loved her silver necklace and earrings. Everywhere you looked there were Mums with huge bunches of flowers next to them it was such a sweet sight. I'd had a huge Saturday night so being a bit worse for wear, spending the day down by the beach having fish and chips was a perfect hangover suppressant! The weather has been surprisingly sunny still, it's meant to be Autumn but as you can see the sun is still shining, there is no rain in sight and people are still walking around in their bikinis and laying about in the sun.


Hope all the Mums had a lovely Mothers Day!

I'm off to Sunny + Scout to catch up on your weekends now.

When: Friday, 29 April 2011 @ 8.30pm
Where: Friend's House

My weekend consisted mainly of a bit more work on the man cave (ok and a bit of shopping too, I'm only human!) so instead of housey pics I'm sharing with you my Friday night shenanigans of The Royal Wedding watching. My girlfriend organised a girls night in and we had to all turn up wearing tragic op shop bridal attire, I'm talking big shoulder pads, lace sleeves and big headbands. Oh yea we were hot to trot. We all bought a plate of royal food and I managed to find a plate with a horse and carriage on it (you can kind of make it out between the bread and dip) and yes there was fairy bread, it was a fairytale wedding after all :) We watched the Wedding, drank lots of bubbly, and played a Wedding Drinking Game which was hilarious, here are some of the rules ....
  • If the Queen is on the screen you must be drinking. The woman has ruled the country for over 50 years, the least you can do is get destroyed in her honour.
  • Any time Prince Harry appears all players must produce a Nazi salute. The last player to do so must drink.
  • If Elton John is spotted the last person to shout “Candle in the Wind” must drink.
But jokes aside we were all cooing over how absolutely beautiful Kate looked, she really is a true princess and William was so happy he was glowing. It's pretty special to be able to witness such a iconic event.

Point and Shoot: Easter Chocolate Feast

Saturday, 23 April 2011 @ 9.30am
My House - Easter Chocolate Feast

Saturday I wrapped up our Easter givings in twine and made little cards for everyone.

The Aussie cushion is for my brother who loves to travel around Australia (he's driven around it twice) so I thought this little cushion would be perfect for his troupie 4x4.

We packed up the chocolate and went out for a long leisurly lunch with family and friends who were over from QLD. We went to Nicholsons Bar and Grill and while everyone chowed down on steak and burgers I opted for a healthy salad (and then couldn't help pinching everyone elses chips, why does that always happen!).

After lunch we went back to where our friends were staying and chatted over chocolate telling stories and jokes. Then raced to the shops just before closing to stock up on wine and food so we were sorted for the next few days of public holidays.

Hope everyone has been enjoying their Easter break

Where: My House

On Saturday I had a bit of a problem with a big scary wasp inside the house. Yes a big stinging bug inside the house on the one weekend when my bug killing man was away. So I put on a tough face, and a jumper to protect my arms, did a few practice wacks with a magazine then slam squashed it. The magazine went in the bin too I couldnt bring myself to touch it after that. After that little trumph I got stuck into planning for my girls night in, I had a few girlfriends coming over for drinks and nibbles. I made the little flags above and used them as skewers for cherry tomatoes and bocconcini. I made a potato frittata. Prawn cocktails served in lettuce cups. And of course its not a girls night without chocolate .... triple chocolate muffins with chocolate frosting and little easter eggs to top it off. We had such a good night drinking bubbles, eating out on the outdoor setting and chatting until the wee hours of the night. Such a great night in, I love my girl time!

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree ... You wouldn't think I was minutes from the CBD but yes Kings Park is full of kids, flies and the occasional kooki! Pete and I had to set the alarm clock Sunday morning (shock horror!) to make it to a family picnic for his brothers birthday. We are the kid-less couple which means we can rock up with chicken and chips from Chicken Treat when everyone else had prepared eskys full of salads, rolls and bbq food. After a windy morning it turned out to be a gorgeous and sunny day, perfect for kicking the ball around, climbing trees (and a little one fell out of the tree, yes there were tears but luckily nothing broken), a few glasses of wine and of course lots of cake. That's how I spent my Sunday ....

I spent the morning washing and cleaning up, smiling at the fact I have way too many wine glasses, toasted some hot cross buns, drank 2 short blacks and I was then awake and not too seedy to enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Where: Friend's House

Saturday was one of those hectic days that had me driving around the countryside trying to get heaps of things done by lunchtime as I had a friends BBQ to go to. I did the food shop, then had breakfast with a girlfriend, then bought an entire wardrobe (well almost) at Kmart for under $20 I'm talking a dress, skirt, 4 tops, they had a crazy sale on. Raced to a few Targets to pick up some canvass art but didn't see the one I wanted which goes to show if you see something you like you have to buy it there and then or it might be gone forever : ( I had 2 attempts at making a couscous salad, but once again my arch rival beat me and not wanting to serve up sludge I had to make a corn and bean salad instead. In the afternoon got to my friend's house for a BBQ and it was time to relax and enjoy a few bottles glasses of wine. We played card games for most of the day it was such fun, there were rules for each card you pulled from the deck with things like "all the boys drink" "make a rule that everyone has to follow" "I went camping and took with me" (memory game) "Pick a subject" (like cosmetic brands) "Pick a word and everyone has to rhyme" it was so entertaining and hysterically funny at times. Just my kind of weekend!

Where: Cranked Coffee, Leederville
When: Saturday, 19 March 2011 @ 9.50am

Grilled haloumi, field mushroom and tomato served on a potato rosti, with fresh spinach and basil pesto with a poached egg on the side. That's how I kick started the weekend and it was delicious! Having breakfast out is such a treat and a great way to start the weekend. After breakfast Pete and I headed to the movies to see the advanced screening of Biutiful which I'd won tickets too. Yes that's about the only thing that would get me out of bed early on the weekend! There's something about going inside in the morning and then coming out in the bright sunshine after midday made me feel like I'd disappeared to another world and come back to reality again. Bit like the movie we watched, it was a trip back to Barcelona which had me reminiscing in yesterdays post. A bit of window shopping and a cafe latte in the sunshine afterwards finished off the day nicely.

Sweet Chantelle from Fat Mum Slim is posting from the USA for this weeks Point and Shoot so we're getting in a bit early this week. I'm heading over there now to see what everyone else has been up to this weekend :-)
