The thing I find myself searching a lot is what to grow in Queensland summer. It’s hot, wet, and there’s a lot of pests. As I have unfortunately come to find. I’ve seen a lot of people in my gardening groups say that they just can’t be bothered planting anything once it gets to summer….
Vegetable Garden: Autumn/Winter 21′
Looking back at last years vegetable garden; I can’t believe I was actually proud of it. I made so many mistakes! And grew such sickly plants…So this time around I was determined to learn from my errors. Probably the biggest mistake I made last year was buying cheap crappy soil from Bunnings. Instead of ordering…
July at Home
I’ve decided to make it a habit of doing a little recap of each month! Mainly because I always take a lot of photos and doing this means I have somewhere to allocate the ones that don’t make it into outfit posts/IG…I also kind of enjoy reading lifestyle posts on other blogs because I’m nosy…
Staying Home
I’m one of those weirdos that likes to hang out at home. Sure, going out is great and all, but I never feel truly content and relaxed until I’ve come home and put the kettle on. My home is my sanctuary where I like to hide away from the world. So I spend a lot…
Veranda Conservatory
I’ve been saying for ages that I’ve been wanting to put up a post about my plants so finally, here it is! A year ago I decided to turn our veranda into a nice outdoor sitting area. For the majority of the year its stifling hot and the veranda is a great place to escape…
At Home
I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to put up more photos of our home, but here we are…finally. If you follow along on instagram you can probably tell that there’s been some changes in that time, so it’s probably about time I share these photos. Before I change things around again. The two…
Queenslander Style
I’ve been wanting to put up a post about how I’ve decorated our house for a while now, but instead I’ve only got around to posting snippets here and there on instagram and my instastories. So I’m sure that most of you by now have a good idea of how I’ve decorated our home. One…
A Dog Called Diago
As many of you are already aware, this spotty fiend has come to dominate my instagram feed lately. And well, my life too really. And, I wouldn’t want it any other way. You might have noticed that I’ve been fairly absent on the blog this year, though not through a lack of desire to post….
Feeling Crabby
I really don’t want this post to be another one where I complain about the heat…but we’ve had a pretty awful summer this year. I also don’t want to be that blogger who apologises to everyone for their absence (because really, no one cares) but the last two months have been so hot that I…
A Very Australian Christmas Tree
This year’s Christmas tree is something a little different. Well, very different! It’s definitely been the most contested tree yet – people either love it or they absolutely hate it. Some of the reactions from friends and family so far have been very amusing, because at first no one knew what to think. It all…
