I always look forward to weekends because what I love the most is to slow down from a busy work week and contemplate what to cook, what ingredients to get, and where to get them from. Just simply appreciating what…

Singin’ In The Rain at the Sydney Lyric Theatre
I attended the opening night of Singin’ In The Rain last night and I thoroughly enjoyed it – the music, the dancing, singing and acting, the stage, all of it, evidenced by the whoops, the cheers and the standing ovation of a fervently appreciative audience at the end of the show. The original 1952 film,…
Easy and delicious pasta to make when you come back from travel
When I come back from a couple of days travelling and there’s nothing at home for dinner, or you just want to quickly cook up something homemade because you’ve eaten out a lot whilst on holidays, it’s easy to whip my favourite pasta dish using the usual players of olive oil, Parmesan, flaky sea salt along…
Stylediaries :: Review May Keylooks Collection & Reflections of Life as a Blogger
I was having lunch with a few bloggers the other day and we shared our experiences about blogging. What started off as a passion does become a little obsession, always capturing a moment on camera but I also try to ensure that I don’t lose sight of the ‘real life’ moment by ensuring what I…

Sydney Chocolate Ball 2016 :: FSHD Global Research Foundation
Who would’ve thought raising money for a charity could be so much fun! I was invited to the Seventh Annual Sydney Chocoloate Ball run by the FSHD Global Research Foundation last Saturday evening at The Star Event Centre in Sydney. This event wasn’t only about raising money but it was about giving guests a spectacular…
Theatre :: Bad Jews – what happens when you put 3 cousins in a small space
Bad Jews, now showing at the Seymour Theatre in Chippendale, is one of those plays that held my attention throughout the entire one act, 100 minutes performance. With brilliant acting, Bad Jews is an intense play set in a cramped Manhattan apartment centring on a Jewish family and the tensions that arise where there are differences…
