Long overdue...

Dear faithful readers 
I'm so sorry that I have been so absent lately, life seems to have all of a sudden exploded into busyville and the other issue is that I'm doing this whole blog thing from my teeny tiny I phone with no keyboard, and it's just really hard on my thumb and DEFINATELY ruining my eyes so between all of that it's proven slightly difficult to get any posts done :(

To tell you the truth I was so tempted to let it slip another day but I knew deep down that just wouldn't be fair and my conscience took over my tired eyes and tired mind so if this post is grammatically incorrect or just plain boring please forgive me :) 

So what's been going on for me you ask, well I'm two weeks into my intense healthy life challenge and just totally loving it!! It has also been my birthday recently so weeklong celebrations went on, I have got to show you the cake I made for me, it was OVER THE TOP!! Here it is what do you think?? ;) 
I also started a cake decorating course at TAFE one night a week so yes my plate is rather full right now with my 2 year old and my 6 month old demanding lots of attention for 99.9 percent of my day ;)


Death by chocolate perhaps?? I tell you this weight loss journey is all about one day and one food decision at a time and some of my days are better than others when it comes to food choice and birthday week has simply been diabolical for me but I am still exercising and that's the life saver, I encourage you get out there and exercise, more so find someone to be accountable to when it comes to exercise and just fully commit to it, like NIKE says JUST DO IT!!

So this is me two weeks into the challenge and I do think I see some improvement already, I still have a long way to go because my clothes are still a tight 14 and I want to get to a 10 but I am what I eat and that's a serious work in progress!!





Off the topic I need to get another device to dedicate to blogging cause this I phone thing is just doing my eyes in so here's the question I'm tossing up between the new I pad air or the new 13" mac book pro with haswell processor what do you reckon I should go for??? HELP really HELP please!! :) 

God Bless Y'all

Indulge much??!!



So yesterday was my dad's birthday and I made my first Ombré cake, Tre Chic ha ha ha ha
Granted my icing technique could be tidier, but that's why I love occasions to try new cakes because practice sure does makes perfect. Doesn't it look wonderful in all it's 4 layer Glory. Dense buttery vanilla sponge, separated by sumptious strawberry preserve and rich caramelly Dolche Leche and then covered in a smoothe, creamy, mouth watering cream cheese frosting...

Who wants some??

I worked so hard, and was so meticulous when putting the candles on my dad's cake to make sure I had it all spelt right, alas I failed to notice that I totally mucked it up HAPPY birthdaH indeed ;) 

The night went well, with the odd thorn in my side, but that's a realm not worth exploring as yet...

So no exercise yesterday, but lots of joy around good food and times with family so I'm happy.

So easy to say we are Christian but to live it, to actually really live the life that we are called to live is an entire lifetime of hard yakka...

Hebrews 12:14 
Work at living in peace with everyone,and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will not see The Lord.


We must seek the love that burns everlastingly against all sin. We must seek the gentleness that can fiercely grip a poisonous growth and tear it out. 

God help us

God Bless you all

Hope to do some exercise tonight :)
