welcome to casa de catty! have a goat's cheese & broccoli soufflé!

I’ve officially been back in Sydney for two whole months. Time flies! Exactly one month after we arrived back, we got an apartment (and I turned 32) and I’ve been meaning to share photos with you guys but life’s been just so hectic and oh yeah, there was that holiday in between.

But now! I have time! Welcome to casa de catty (ok and Panu).

back from sunny Townsville (and loads of baby cuddling)

Yesterday morning was one of the most difficult mornings I’ve ever had to deal with. I mean, I thought that last year’s post-Santorini holiday blues were bad. The endless blue skies and warm weather… but now, add to the endless blue skies and warm weather the most adorable, cuddly, chubby baby ever and you’ll see why I found it so hard to drag myself away and back to the 9-to-5 humdrum of life.

bite sized: in case y'all are worried... I'm still alive!

I haven’t blogged for A LONG TIME but don’t worry, I’m still alive! Somehow being on the beach / by the pool trumps being online. Sadly we’re packing up and heading back to Sydney tonight so the regular blog program shall recommence shortly.

... and I'm off!

I’ve just set my Out of Office (is that seriously the best feeling or what?) and tomorrow I am off to Brisvegas to see my parents and then on Wednesday next week… I get to cuddle this adorable little creature! I CANNOT WAIT.

I’m sure I’ll find time to blog from the sunshine state, if I’m not too busy sipping cocktails by the pool or eating chubby little babies, but if you miss me a little too much *coughGAG* come visit my twitter stream. I’m never off that thing.

wishes... they do come true. happy birthday to me!

You know there are people out there who believe in the universe… and energy… and all that fluffy stuff the general power of positive thinking. Well, I’m not one of them. I’m as far from being spiritually driven as a vegan is from bacon lard (mmm… bacon lard). I’m practical, I’m scientific, I’m… a non-believer. But you know what? All that might have just changed.

for the love of matcha and GLEE! and chiffon cake and Azuma

Friday night. What’s on your Friday night wish list, to make it a perfect end to your week? For me, Friday night wish lists have evolved beyond recognition over the last few years. I used to hang out for Friday night, to hit 5pm and start guzzling alcohol with my friends and live by our “eating is cheating rule”. I mean, eating is cheating? Seriously? I chose not to eat? God, I don’t recognise myself.

These days, all I want to do on Friday night is eat. In my pjs. I am old and boring like that.

But last Friday night was pretty awesome as far as Friday nights go. Check out this champion of checklists:
