At 5pm on a Saturday arvo it’s now totally acceptable to whip up a batch of Date Scones even when no-one else in the house really even enjoys them {aside from E who’s great love of warm baked goods does not discriminate against dates}. Follow
Argghhhh! So Long Google Reader
I have been using Google Reader to follow and enjoy all of your amazing blogs for years now. I love it. It’s simple, it works and I valued being able to sign in to Gmail and all of my shit was in one place. Sigh. So now we are moving on and though I have a couple of other apps …
Things I’m Loving ::::caution:::: Whining Mummy Blogger ahead
That’s it people. That’s all I have this week. The last bite of bakery caramel slice that just went up in price .60c and simultaneously shrunk. The nerve of you Hollywood Bakery!

Friday Love
Thank god it’s Friday. This week has been challenging; one little drama after another and Ethan misbehaving like a boss EVERY afternoon this week. He is doing my head in. Mornings are easy. He wakes up happy, complies, helps out, goes to school without fussing……..then obviously uses up all of his good behaviour at school and tortures me when he …
Currently….
This week has had a frantic feel, one of those weeks with a multitude of appointments, people to call, things to schedule, bills to pay…… sans husband of course. But Dave has been available via the inter webs to help me make a big decision for Ethan – thank god because I was just dithering on my own. Ethan is …

A couple of terrible very bad mistakes that you should never make whilst planning your very expensive trip.
LEARN FROM THIS PEOPLE. I make these mistakes so you don’t have to mmmkay, I’m a giver like that. Don’t leave something potentially trip-ruining til the last minute if you can do it earlier. Case in point. I {like most NZ’ers} assumed that I would have no problem with my application for the USA Visa Waiver Program. So, on Thursday …
