My Chanel Moment...


Who could have known... along Collins St in Melbourne City... where it all takes place... My very first Chanel moment...


A Queen for a day... with my black and white package... all wrapped in sophistication and glamour all rolled into one... these things make a women heart skip a beat... and I've selected "the one"... that I know just spells me, me, me....


The picture doesn't do it justice... it's pretty baby pink.. in textured calf leather.... and the smell of new leather... I love it!! I truly do!!

The inside of it... girls.. eat your heart out!! hee hee....



That's me and my Chanel... I had always wanted to say that and now I finally can..

Another one with my Xmas tree!! It's feeling oh so festive at home... ; )

My short break... from it all....

Hey People!!

Ya all must be wondering what I have been doing on my break.... it's has been the most bestest time ever!! I've been whipping up some culinary delights in my very own kitchen... :D

My Banana Walnut Loaf...

Look it's sooo nutty!! it's a big hit with Kelvin and his office... all gone within the morning...


My very home made.. apple crumple.. very Yums... and best eaten with vanilla ice cream...

Muffin times.. first with Strawberry muffins...


Next one was with Blackberry muffins.. all from the Sunny Ridge Berry farm... I known it both look the same cos it's the same recipe since it's enjoy so much by Kelvin and my bestest friends Angie and Jeremy who just stay downstairs... the perks of staying near Maddy ; )

Something for my dear boy... romantic dinner at home... with Red Wine.. Home cooked Angus porterhouse steak.. and butter prawns and some healthy salad...

Not forgetting to hang out with my friends.. there is Jem!! We had brekky at St Kilda...

Sinful.. so sinful............ My fave thing to do in Melbourne....... big brekky with all the works!!

My short trip to Sorrento....

Walking along the pier.. where we stopping for Fish and Chips...
Chilling out with my new found guy friend Jinish... Jinish is from Dubai he has been staying here for couple of years and lovin it here... we have been having a great time hanging out!! I can tell him everything!!

Along the beach where the boats parked.. waiting for a great day to be taken out for fishing...

I'm just loving it!! the sun, sand and the sea...

Who would have known.. EVERYONE just LOVES MADDY!!

Look at the scenic lookout along Sorrento... take in the cool sea breeze...


And before you known it! it's just for one last picture and time to head on home....

Tassie Trip Day 5...Last Onee.....

The Bed in Breakfast during the day.. the house we were in!! Highly recommended!!




Look at the barrel of flowers...

The owner's house and look another swing!!
We were sad we had to leave.. our last day in Tassie... we made a short stop at Ross town... at the post office to send my folks a postcard.. it's a little old town full of history and very quiet.. barely any one around...
The olden days of how post boxes look like... now the post office is like a yard sale for tourists...


We were starving!! So lunch stop for some soup.. bread and the world famous scallop pie!!

We had some time on our hands soo I did a little bit of shopping at Hobart town.. and had a Great bargain with my Sports Girl white Bag which is now my fave bag to bring around!!

Our last meal.. at Hobart... we decide it had to be oysters just minutes away from the airport..

Look that is where they harvest the oysters daily.. soo you can imagine how fresh it really is!!

It's called Barilla Bay... they don't have fresh oysters every day on days when weather is bad.. they don't head out... so you might try your luck!!

This marks an end to my tassie trip!! I would be back another time.. and 5 day is really not enough!! Who wanna go with me for the next one?!?!?

Tassie Trip Day 4...



We enjoy viewing our cosy Christmas cottage one last time before heading off...

A swing in the garden... so surreal..... Up next down to Lauceston...




Look the town...

A stop to buy some home brewed beer...I have got strawberry flavoured beer!!


We've finally reach Cradle Mountain!! It's called that as there is a cradle dip in the middle...and look it's so cold it's snowing!! So I've got out my ski cap!!

We took the walk around the lake.. look at the rustic colours.. it's really pretty amazing..

With waterfalls as well... so calm.. so relaxing..

We did have to do a lot of walkting though...
The walkways are just hanging off the bottom of the mountain... so you're intouch with nature..
We also brought our own picnic and picked a nice spot to eat.. til we realised the birds were following us and looking at our food.. we chop chop eat and move on...

Look at the lake... I wish the weather was better and I could take a dip!!Oh gosh did you know the walk took like 3 hrs... I was sooo happy to finally reach!! Yay!!

We gave ourselves a great dinner treat..but got too hungry and didn't take pics of the rest but they're sooooo heavenly...The tired me kicking back when we arrive at our bed and breakfast just below cradle mountain!!
The beds!!
This is mine for the night!! soooo country.... and good to zzzzzzz
