this weekend...

No house stuff done whatever so ever... and I'm not feel guilty.
I spent most of the weekend hanging out, eating, browsing and catching up with friends.

Saturday night, great night in at friends place stuffing ourselves silly with amazing Indian take out. They're off to Paris and Italy for 4 weeks on Monday - jealous.

Today I caught up with another friend and went for a late brekky at Tusk. I highly recommend the poached eggs, smoked salmon, wilted spinach on potato roesti stacks and hollandaise sauce... Ooooooh my gosh, delicious. We were waited on by Lucy, made famous the Satorialist.

We wandered around around Windsor, both on a mission to buy some vintage boots (yes, at the end of winter - go figure) but with no success. Went into Tarlo & Graham and I noticed my big glass bottle selling for $140 which I found op-shopping for $5!

I'll be spending the evening on the couch I think. I may consider going for a walk and work off that hollandaise sauce... But don't hold me to that.

balcony garden

After the kitchen is finished, I will give some much needed love to our very sad looking balcony.

Once upon a time, herbs use to florish our of the big terrcotta planter, and standing nearby it was my beloved maggie - my small magnolia tree who has now gone to heaven.

I love these old crates used as planter boxes..

I need to cull my collection of bottles and jars - too many dust collectors and nowhere to store them. This image from Aimee Herring is making me second guess. It's going to be hard for me to part with them...

Didn't actually get lost this weekend..
But we did have a nice time at the Collingwood Childrens Farm today. We enjoyed the quaint surrounds by the river and tucked into a delicious organic breakfast. We bought home some danish pastries from the Convent Bakery.
