friday on the move

Today we moved a few streets over to a different Brunswick Heads holiday pad. We were due to move back to stay with our friends but sadly one friend is unwell with a migraine :( that means a quiet house is in order. So, we booked into our 'new home' with our boisterous, excitable boys who have bounced on beds, ran from room to room, played hide and seek in the cupboards, belted out rough chords on the guitar and sang loudly...what was I saying about a quiet house...

I found this blog via my friend Renee...it features Renee's recipe chocolate berry super fudge...yes please.

I am yet to meet a school mum who isn't looking for school lunch box inspiration. Via Che and Fidel I found the Lunch Lady. I'm looking forward to watching this space.

The focus here is very much about what we put in our bodies but I have been thinking more and more about what we put on our bodies. I came across the site Chemical Free Parenting, the book looks like an informative read.

River recently received a fabulous book Mindful Monkey, Happy Panda I can't recommend it enough, fantastic for children and adults as the title suggests it is a story about living mind-fully. A great read and guide for living.

Today is the UN International Day for the World's Indigenous People, a fitting day to launch Culture is Life the campaign to end Indigenous self-harm and youth suicide in Australia. My husband Pete is managing this campaign, please take some time to read about what is happening the facts are grim but the solutions are clear. Together we can raise awareness that will lead to change, please share the webpage and like the facebook page.

We would love to attend the Boomerang Festival.

A much quieter weekend on the horizon for us than last weekend's social bonanza. Buckwheat pancakes for breakfast on sunday will be about the peak of the excitement if I have my way, beach walks and playing at the park is about the pace I am ready for.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend I hope you get some sunshine xx

    2. No worries, now that I re-read it, I see that it's not that clear. I'm new to this blogging thing and it's so hard to know how to acknowledge sources of inspiration, while wanting to post something that is hopefully new and interesting!
