When I was a kid, I loved this little shop called Morning Glory that sold Japanese stationary, typically featuring Sanrio characters. My favourite character was Cinnamoroll, a little white puppy with long ears, born in the blue sky above. His colour scheme, cute looks and affinity for the sky meant I loved him then and still…… Continue reading Visiting Cinnamoroll Cafe in Shinjuku
A Brisbane Christmas – festive feasts down under
Better late than never, right? This festive season has been jam-packed with the good and the bad and getting this blog at 100% has been a little bit of a mission! But alas, here I am, Boxing Day night, getting this written. Whether you want to extend the Christmas vibes, plan your eating for next…… Continue reading A Brisbane Christmas – festive feasts down under
The dining differences that make Japan great
While I feel extremely lucky to live in Brisbane and enjoy all the dining options it has to offer, Japan was something else entirely. During our trip, I took note of the differences that are a little quirky but also could (read: should!) be enjoyed worldwide. Welcome to the sea of soy versus the perfect…… Continue reading The dining differences that make Japan great
The best coffee in the world
Big statement, I know. But hear me out on this one (I think I ask that a lot of you… thanks for being trusting dear reader)! Of course there may be better that I have not tried, but in my travels so far, the best coffee I have had (and my coffee-snob fiance agrees!) was in a…… Continue reading The best coffee in the world
Teaming up like bacon and eggs
There are people in life that you are just meant to meet. Caity (who I have mentioned briefly in a previous blog) runs a great little food guide called Foodramblings. We met professionally but have since become good friends and our love of food, photography and blogging has been like cookies meeting milk – a…… Continue reading Teaming up like bacon and eggs
Golden days
One of my favourite places to shop near my workplace is James Street Market. It has so many delicious, boutique finds that are not in your typical supermarket and are often locally sourced, so you know you are supporting Australian businesses. About a month ago I wandered down to the store with a work friend…… Continue reading Golden days
Why Chermside is making stomachs churn (in a good way!)
So admittedly I’m a bit late to the party, but Westfield Chermside’s newest area opened a few weeks ago and I was lucky enough to help a friend (and fellow blogger) try out one of the many great restaurants, Betty’s Burgers & Concrete Co. Since I was taking photos for her, I thought I might as well take…… Continue reading Why Chermside is making stomachs churn (in a good way!)
Party people and food photos
Last weekend I got to attend a raging party. And by raging, I mean it had some of the best homemade delicacies I’ve enjoyed at a party! One of my good friends was hosting a little house do, just cause, and one of the conditions was to bring food. A few people admittedly did bring…… Continue reading Party people and food photos
Going stale and eating big
It’s been a few weeks and I’m sorry for those waiting, but I promise there is lots to come! I started a new job recently and the blog went by the wayside. Much like cake on the bench, I let it go stale. But no longer! To kickstart some posts again, I am beginning with…… Continue reading Going stale and eating big
The Waiting Game
You know the one, we’ve all played it many times in our lives. Whether it’s waiting for your favourite TV show to start a new season, waiting to save enough money for a car, a house, a holiday, or just waiting for the damn cake to bake, we all have to wait. It can be tough…… Continue reading The Waiting Game
