Maddy,
I've just realised that this book is by Zoe Clark. I have another of her books which I love. I have made a miniature version of her birdcage cake, and the cupcake I use for my avatar is inspired by one in her book. I'd love to hear your opinion of her new book.

You've bought $300 bucks worth of vitamins and still have to get berocca?

hopefully not! I hope to be BBB-bouncing out of my bbb***y skin for that price. I'm gonna report to everyone so in the end its a cheap experiment for everyone else (if you like to go on recommendations)  ;)



Berocca and champagne for breakfast .....one of my favourites.

I've done a whole heap of shopping yesterday and today at the sales. Clothes for me and baby daughter, flannelette sheets, food storage containers, moisturisers, teething powder, etc etc.

I had more success today at the Galleria than yesterday at both Karrinyup and Innaloo. The same shops have different ranges at each shopping centre. Should've just gone to Galleria to save time in the first place.

Berocca and champagne for breakfast .....one of my favourites.


Take a large glass add one  tab original Berocca, ice and top with leftover sparkling wine. It does not matter if it is flat as the Berocca gives it the fizz. For an extra pretty morning drink use Sparkling Shiraz.

Good stuff.

Won't see it for at least 2 months  :P
I buy books on pre-release from book depository....they are much cheaper that way  ;)
the bonus is you forget all about them, and when they finally turn up, it's a nice surprise.

I'd love to look through your bookcase LOL

It really is getting out of control.....but I just can't stop myself  :P

.........EAT CAKE!

Maddy,
I've just looked at the website- it's cheaper than Fishpond, which is what I usually buy from.  Mmmm. I'm tempted by this.....

I know, I know. However, this week we have had the gas bill, electricity bill, 2 insurance bills etc.  Perhaps if I can keep the food costs down this week, I could treat myself?
