Monday, January 19, 2015 365 Project // Day 17-18 "Weekend Snapshots: Shopping, Markets and Nostalgia"

17th January


On Saturday we went shopping. George desperately needed new pants for work, and new shorts for summer. In Bing, Harris and Co everything was half price, and so we managed to score two pairs of chinos, and two pairs of shorts for $144. Bargain, considering the good quality. 





In the arvo we visited Dairy Bell, an icecream warehouse around the corner from our place. It's been around forever, and when we were kids it was a ritual to visit there at least a few times over the summer holidays. We hadn't been for years, but it was in the paper recently that they've decided to close their shop at the end of February. And so my sisters and I decided to visit one last time. It was amazing to see that absolutely nothing inside the shop had changed. They still had the same pictures, the same flavours, the same signs and the same prices! It sounds kind of ridiculous, I know, but it made us incredibly nostalgic.

On Sunday morning we headed to Prahran market. That place is magical. I think next time we'll go with a shopping list though, because we were a tad overwhelmed by all the options and all the sales and went a little nuts, spent far too much money, and I don't know how we're going to get through all this food before it goes off. But it's a darn nice feeling to have a fridge stocked with beautiful fresh produce. I also bought coconut sugar. I don't really know why, the jar just looked cool. Now I have to figure out how to use it..


When we went for a walk later that evening, we found this wheelbarrow and a 'FREE PLUMS' sign. Don't things like this just warm ya heart a lil?

And lastly, sorry Georgio. But I had to...





Monday, September 29, 2014 Weekend Snapshots: Exiting hermit mode

University work has been ruling my life recently. Which means total hermit mode. But this weekend I decided to give myself a breather. I needed to... This sister-to-ginger was going a lil insane! So here are a few photos that I collected along the way. Melbourne is so pretty at this time of year - I'm a total winter gal at heart (weirdo), but I can't deny the power that a little bit of sunshine has to completely lift ya mood :D xx

Sunday, August 10, 2014 Weekend Snapshots: Coffee, Movie, Football, Beer, Cake... Coffee

Sigh, weekends.. how I love thee. George forced himself to take the day off on Friday (he has so many deadlines to meet but he has just been really run-down lately.. he needed a decent rest), which of course meant that I needed to take the day off too :P We had a jam-packed weekend - consisting of lots of coffee, a movie, more coffee, baking, football (go Hawks!), beer, more coffee and a Sunday family lunch. 





















Sorry about the poor quality of the photos. I'm relying on my trusty Nexus 5 until I'm able to talk myself into parting with my limited savings and buy a better camera. I've been thinking about it for so long... I need to just do it!! Story of my life, ey :)
