My first guest post!!!



A few months ago I was driving the Captain to a birthday party over in Killara.  Stopped at the lights I glanced at the car next to me and spotted a familiar face, a fellow blogger!  Will I?  Won't I? I was torn between saying hello and scared she would think I was a lunatic!  Gathering courage I wound down the window and called out "Carolyn?"  Yes, it was definitely her!  "I love your blog" I followed with!  Luckily, she laughed!  I don't think she thought I was a complete lunatic as soon after we met for a coffee and she even asked me to write a guest post!  Here it is over at Desire Empire!!!

  8. Good work with the chandelier. I admire that kind of dedication. When we travelled to Italy pre kids we came home with 2 paintings and an armful of crockery snuck into our carry on bags. And if you are ever in Briz, you are welcome to come and have a cuppa with me too! melx

  13. That is a great story, & I wish more people would take that initiative to meet someone. I'm not an Aussie, but it's somewhere I've always wanted to see. Oh, and I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge my "obsession" with Russell Crowe.....lol!

    I toured your beach cottage over at Desire Empire, & "wow" what a beautiful home! I'm a new follower & look forward to seeing more of what you do.
