Today, I got into my car after a busy day at work. I slid into the front seat, flicked my hair out of my eyes, and put the keys in the ignition. I looked up, and a movement directly in front of me caught my eye. Ah, I thought to myself. That car across from [...]

Two wonderful things happened on a recent Sunday. Firstly, The Pilot and I finally managed to rendezvous for a Skype chat, during which time he scared the pants off me by detailing his experience with the tornado that recently ripped through the south-east of America. He saw the sky turn green. This still frightens me. [...]

Shame on me. About a million years ago (I didn’t stop taking maths in Year 12 for nothing), I told you about the time I went to the Bus Depot markets, was generously given the four newest Curious Chocolatier chocolate bars, and then found myself face-planting in the gravel for the privilege. I quickly reviewed [...]

I’m ridiculously excited about this chocolate review. Truly, I am. Do you remember when I told you about my chocolate windfall and then my karmic real fall? In that post, I mentioned that there was something stupendous about a chocolate I’d received from my ever-innovative friend Heidi, The Curious Chocolatier. Actually, each new flavour that Heidi [...]

The first reason is that it’s not one of the standard, ever-present chocolates of The Curious Chocolatier line-up, but a seasonal (and hard-to-find) offering produced late [...]

When you were a child, were you ever taken to a store that sold expensive items yet didn’t bother to protect them behind, say, glass? Perhaps it was a music shop where guitars and flutes and bongos stood out like playmates in the schoolyard, beckoning you to touch them with your Chupa Chups-holding hands? Or [...]

A big thanks to everyone for the lovely comments and congratulations regarding my PhD announcement! It’s really nice to have your support When I was house-sitting a few months ago, I went out for dinner with three lovely ladies. One of these lovely ladies (in the strictly non-Les Miserables sense) was L-Izzle, who you may recognize [...]

I’ve never thought of myself as particularly patriotic. This is not to say that I don’t like being Australian, because I do. It’s just that I’m not comfortable with gallivanting around proclaiming that Australian-ness is superior to all other kinds of Nationality-ness simply because, well, I’m Australian and therefore “Australia Is The World”. However, there have [...]
