Mid-semester break reading list

Because reading for pleasure has sadly been replaced with ‘reading for a boring accounting degree’ in the last two years, I embraced my new Part-Time Student status with reckless abandon and checked out three novels from the library yesterday.  I have two weeks off before the semester resumes, well the first week is actually gone but I have already finished a book, …

Autumn Sun

Today was one of those days where you want to get your washing on the line as early as possible because you just know it’s going to dry so fast (at least you do if you live in New Zealand!), it was a stunning sunny, hot autumn day – NO humidity.  After Ethan and I walked home from kindy we …
