So today I’m snitchy. I think I’ve been snitchy for a month. I’m not pre-menstrual, hormonal, overly tired or feeling the dodgy planetary alignment. I’m just plain grumpy.

A Zombie Apocalypse and a LadyBoner
It’s been a long time. A month, in fact. And here’s what has happened since our last milling over what is minxish and what is not-ish.

It’s Valentine’s Day tomorrow.

It’s Summer school holidays here in Australia. I spend 40% of my time wishing my kids were back at school and 60% of the time feeling guilty about wishing they were back at school. It’s fair to say that I adore the first say three days weeks of the school holidays – the [...]

Polyvore Pick and Mix: McQueen Adoration – The Pink Sheep Of The Family
