{quick three..} favourite dinners..


Quite simply said.. I love seafood but absolutely hate cooking it. Doesn't make sense really, but that's the way it is.

So whenever I go out for dinner I try and eat seafood of some sort. I love everything from the good old butter fish at the local fish and chip shop to lobsters and crabs.. give me a sea creature and I'll probably eat it with w a big smile on my face.

So, jumping into my top three dinner choices we have:

{1} Salt & Pepper Squid
{2} Garlic Prawns
{3} Seafood Marinara

So what dish can you not resist when going out for dinner.. or better still, what dish do you just rock at making at home?

{quick three..} breakfast..


Running a little late.. sorry guys!! Madhouse-bears around here with the upcoming website launch and getting everything organised for it. It's looking amazing and I'm so super excited about it..

But jumping straight into the quick three.. This week its breakfast and one thing that I love is going out for brekky. I love the vibe at a cafe in the morning and the smell of freshly brewed coffee while I eat my brekky. So whenever I have the chance.. yep, I try and organise a breakfast catchup with friends rather than lunch or dinner.

My faves when I'm out would have to be:
{1} A full breakfast which includes, poached eggs, bacon, spinach, mushrooms and tomato.. a hash brown on the side is also a bonus.
{2} Eggs Benedict.. oooh, yea!! That's all!!
{3} Pancakes topped with fresh berries and a drizzle of cream and maple syrup.

At home I go for:
{1} Soft boiled eggs
{2} Pancakes
{3} Scrambled eggs with chives

Alright.. now its your turn..

{quick three..} lists

{snapshot of my pinterest board dedicated to lists..}
Oh how I love lists and Oh how I have too many going at any one point. Seriously though, I couldn't imagine running my life without lists. As I mentioned in a couple of posts I have a few little stations around the house with various lists and they really do need to get moved and organised into one central location, but I operate on lists and on ticking them off.

So to jump straight into it.. these are my 3 major lists that I live by:

{1} the shopping list..
I have a little silver cash-register-roll holder that I stumbled across in a magazine a decade or so ago, and my bro kindly hunted down for me, as back then things weren't as easy to obtain online. It lives stuck to the fridge and is absolutely awesome as its so handy to add items to and then just rip off the section with the list and take to the supermarket.

{2} to do right now..
I have two glass boards, one for home and one for work that I scribble things on with a chalk pen. Super easy to add things to and rub clean so those to-do's seem to always get done as they sort of glare at me if they don't.

{3} ideas book..
To keep all my ideas in one place, I have a gorgeous book that is very compact and travels with me pretty much everywhere. I write everything in there from ideas for my business to ideas for home, craft and jot down websites I love.. seriously everything.

Now this little list... I found it a little while back and have started using it, and so far, it seems to be working like a dream. I try and fill it out the night before so I know what's coming up the next day. I tried calendars and diaries but I just forget to look into them, so this might just be my answer. I've actually made my own smaller version that is easy to slip into my bag or pocket, but it has pretty much the same info on it. It even has a water count which is something I always, always, always forget to do.

So what lists to do you live by? Any ideas on what to add to this super list?

Next weeks theme will be {child friendly dinners}.. This is purely for my sanity. I need to spend the time to have a look and try out some new recipes as I'm getting really, really bored of cooking the same food over and over again... I'd love to hear about what your kids favourite meals are or some links to recipes online.. 

See you next week..


{quick three..} post it notes..

I've written about post-it notes before and I'm sure I'll write about them again.. I love them!! Recently I received an email from sew many ways.. a new blog I'm loving at the moment reminding us that the holidays are coming up, which means presents, which also means the reminder of all those presents you were meaning to make for people but ran out of time. Karen has started Make a Gift on the 25th Club, which is basically a way of getting you to start on all those pressies you want to make now and pledge to make a gift each month.

I found some super cute ideas to do with post-it notes and thought that I might just make some of these for the kids teachers and friends. They can help with the simpler versions too which would be another thing to do with them on these freezing days. This week I'm also heading to a Christmas in July dinner with the girls and need to bring along a small gift.. so one of these is on the agenda for me to make before Friday.

So my quick three this week is ways you can turn the amazing post-it note pad into a little gift..

{1} a pressie for the teachers..


{2} a pressie for my friends..


{3} a pressie for the kid's friends..
