Gin & Flowers
My friend and I share a love for gin. When he told me about this Aussie gin from the Margaret River in Western Australia, of course I had to try it. I picked up a bottle for him for his birthday and it was delicious – one of my favourites. It has typically Australian botanicals…

Five Minutes with Rhoeo spathacea – Regular Random
Last week, I spent five minutes with Clarry, who is my best friend Moana’s Border Collie. While I was in the backyard, I also spent 5 minutes (4 actually) with this lovely “Stripe Me Pink” plant, also known as Rhoeo spathacea. I used to have many of these in my garden when I lived in…

Five Minutes with Clarry – RegularRandom
I am currently in Brisbane, staying with my best friend Moana. Moana’s dog Clarry, is a gorgeous 15 month old Border Collie. He is the sweetest, gentlest little (big) guy who is so very loyal to his mama. Moana wanted a few new photos for her wall and so I spent some time – 5…

Birthday Chocolate Tart – RegularRandom
It must be tough having a birthday in the days leading up to Christmas. One of my friends at work, Anna, has her birthday on the 19th, and so we had a little morning tea to celebrate. I brought along a chocolate tart from my favourite bakery and we all enjoyed it on her day.…

Five (actually six) Minutes with this Doughnut – RegularRandom
I’m not usually one for doughnuts. Unless they’re spectacular, and that’s the only way I can explain this one. It’s from my usual bakery. I went in to get some bread but this caught my eye – I’m always looking for something that has some height or texture or some other kind of interest, and…

Five Minutes with French Earl Grey Tea Cake – RegularRandom
I discovered a new-to-me coffee place last weekend, picked up a very good takeaway flat white, and a croissant for the next day’s breakfast. Today, I stopped by there again with Gidget to get another flat white. They let me bring her inside the very tiny store to order my coffee, and I saw this…

Five Minutes with Poppies (or Ranunculus?) 1 – RegularRandom
Today was a gorgeous day where in Melbourne – 17 degrees, with beautiful warm sunshine. I slept late, I caught up on some YouTubers I’d been missing, then I took Miss Gidget to the park. Everyone was out and about with their puppies, enjoying the fabulous warmth. A quick stop at the bakery (you know…

Five Minutes with the pinkest posey I’ve ever seen – RegularRandom
Hi there, Welcome to this week’s RegularRandom. I’ve been a little random with posting lately, and I apologise for that. I’ve had a few different things popping up in my life – friends visiting, large amounts of work, my kikki.K Planner Insider project, and two new projects, which I will fill you in on in…

Five Minutes with a very pretty hot chocolate – RegularRandom
This week, it’s hot chocolate. It’s Sunday night and I’ve just sent off a big report that’s due and I fancy a hot chocolate right now. So I’ll post these photos and then go make one for myself. It’s cold and rainy here in Melbourne this weekend – perfect weather for blankets, and hot chocolates…

Five Minutes with my new Handbag – RegularRandom
So, I might have bought a new bag 😊 It’s been a rough few weeks. I needed a little retail therapy. Plus, my favourite handbag, that I’ve had since 2010, was destroyed by mould in my leaking apartment. These are my reasons. But really, I just wanted it. So I got it. Perfect opportunity for…
