The Richmond Weekender

I have been meaning to write a post for ages about how being married to my husband is very bad for ones self-esteem. Because his parents, step-parents and his 5 little sisters are all freakin' geniuses!

One of Tom's little sisters graduated from RMIT last year and landed the coolest job working for a super trendy little design studio in Melbourne. Their latest project was 'The Richmond Weekender'.

Doesn't it look like the coolest place to spend a lazy weekend? You can read more about it here.

The return

Well, here we are.. back in Sydney!
Tom had to come over for a week for work, so Sophie and I thought we would join him.

Other than hanging out in our fancy hotel, I plan to..

Visit my favourite cafe (Gertrude & Alice),
Walk through The Botanical Gardens,
Spend hours in Kinokuniya,
Eat delicious things from the Bourke St Bakery,
Play at Centennial Park,
Have dinner at Bill & Toni's and
Visit my family, of course!

Rainy days

With all this rain around, I thought I would share one of my favourite posts from Lox papers.. 10 things to do on a rainy day..



Also, Jacki over at More than a Mummy wrote a fantastic post this morning about the top 10 bookstores in Sydney, including this one and this one that I have posted about before.. nothing better than drinking chai tea in your favourite bookstore cafe on a rainy day..
