So that to-do list I wrote on Friday? Yeah, didn’t actually do one thing on it. I did however go to gorgeous Heidi’s 1st Birthday and it was cute-o-rama. One of the most beautiful babies I know. It does help that her parents are total hotties. This was the little gift we gave her, a [...]
#1. Before having kids, I need to get strong. I hung out with Caren and Ashley again this afternoon, and was holding Ash for a total of about 15 minutes. At 8.5kg, I couldn’t hold her for more than 10minutes straight. How pathetic is that! So I better start lifting some weights. #2. I need [...]
I’m not. Yet. It’s likely to happen sometime this year though. And I’ve been thinking for awhile about when is the “right time” to tell people. I know the general consensus is 12 weeks, when you’ve passed the riskiest time for miscarriage. But. Why shouldn’t you tell people? And then if you miscarry, tell them [...]
Look at this cutie! Ashley is my bestie Caz’s bubba, this was taken in November last year. I took 192 photos of Ashley in about a period of an hour. Just imagine how many bloody photos we are going to have of our own kids when we have them! =D

Welcome to my little corner of the blogosphere. I'm Mikaela, I am female, 25, married, and busy by choice. I love life and have too many ideas in my head, and wish there were more hours in the day (I'm sure old people always said that when I was growing up). I live in and love Canberra, Australia (2 hours to beach or snow, what more could you ask for?). For more about who I am and what I do, go to the about page =)

We had giant hamburgers for dinner. Bun, tomato sauce, mustard, cheese, hot chilli meat pattie, more cheese, pineapple, beetroot, tomato, lettuce, avocado, bun. YUM. Giant! I had two. See my last post about always eating too much.
Yesterday I was in Coles and saw this yummo looking Italian bread which inspired me to make Bruschetta as an entreĆ© to dinner last night. I forgot to get Olive Oil when I was there so had to improvise with peanut oil, but it wasn’t too bad. I buttered the bread (no oil, remember?), spread [...]
This is a recipe I sort of made up about 4 years ago. I think it’s probably based on something I had once and I just tried to remember the ingredients when putting it together. I’ve got it down to a fine art now, everyone loves this salad. It goes perfectly with snags and steak [...]
Before going to the coast last week I made 2 ribbon organiser boxes. One turned out really well, the other not so much. Here is the latter, made from an old tissue box. The reason I don’t like the end result is because the tissue box was too flimsy to begin with, the walls went [...]
As promised, here are Girds’ and Harley’s new doggie beds! The reason I decided to make these is because their current beds are lumpy, big oofy pillows, with blankets on top. They take up far too much room in our bedroom, aren’t very portable, and are hard to wash. These beds, however, are the opposite [...]
Yesterday and today were spent putting my house back together, so I haven’t had a chance to complete the DIY projects I wanted to do today to show here. Hopefully I can finish the doggie beds tonight as well as at least start on my ribbon organiser… We’ll see how I go, I still have [...]
