| Birthday Week | Part 3 | Balloons + Birthday Dinner & more Cake |

Hi everyone,

LIFE UPDATE! It is obvious from my inundation of BIRTHDAY posts of late, that it was recently my birthday on August 1st. I really wanted to share with you the fun I got up to in my stretched out, week-long celebrations! :) So, here is Part 3.

Don't fret though, I have an number of beauty posts ready to go up too!

I really do have the sweetest housemate that ever lived. This is the scene I woke up to on the morning of my birthday, I was smiling from ear to ear :)

She already knows my obsession with cupcakes, chocolate and bright colours.

I adored the colour of these flowers! I love the vibrant coral of the petals.

I had been craving a delicious juicy steak for a while now, so I lashed out getting a Scotch Fillet with Mushroom Sauce! Of course it helped that it was 1/2 price steak night. Yes! Mr W agreed, the fries were pure perfection, super-crunchy on the outer and fluffy on the inside. 

What is a birthday without cake? I just couldn't resist sharing a piece of Lemon Cheesecake! I am known for not having the sweetest tooth, but a tarty Lemon Cheesecake is my idea of heaven in dessert. We even got the first slice from the cake, so it was super moist yummy! (I dislike that word).

His, hot chocolate. Hers, latte.

A perfect slice!

Thanks for sharing in my Birthday Week Part 3 post! 

What are your food indulgences?

Take care,

| Autumn in Hahndorf |

Hi everyone,

A few weekends ago I ventured on a road trip with Mr W and his family to a sleepy town nestled in the Adelaide Hills named Hahndorf. We had organised a lunch date in Hanhndorf that day for Mr W's sister, who was celebrating her birthday.

Hahndorf is a beautiful little town with its pretty, tree-lined street, and is the oldest non-British settlement in South Australia. The main street is filled with restaurants, cafes, lolly shops, ice creameries, as well as other quirky places like the German Cake shop (which we visited) with walls covered with cuckoo clocks and painted plates. Unique & fascinating to discover, Hahndorf is the little gem of the Adelaide Hills.

Hahndorf is heavenly in autumn & winter. Crisp cool air and a surprisingly busy hustle & bustle comes to the town on the weekends with the influx of tourists and city escapees (like me). I always associate a cosy feeling when I visit Hahndorf in the cooler months. It's a time to put of your warm winter jacket, scarf, boots, and do some exploring.    

Hahndorf's timeworn buildings tell the story of past to present

The Hahndorf Candle Barn had some of the most fragrant candles I have encountered to date. My favourite, was the 'Freshly Brewed Coffee' candle. Obviously.

The ever so quaint Hahndorf main street, perfect with autumn leaves

                                    Bunnies! Need I say more?

So many fudge varieties to choose from

Sweeties!

It's my birthday! Another year the wiser.

Hi everyone,

Yesterday was my twenty-something-and-a-little-bit-more birthday!

"With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come." 

- William Shakespeare

I was up at the break of dawn on my birthday (very out of character for me, being the night owl that I am). I was savoring every moment of the beautifully sunny and blue sky day we were having. I also ordered a sneaky little beauty related birthday present for myself last week and it arrived in the post today! What a special birthday surprise!

What are your favourite gifts to get on your birthday?

Take care of yourself & enjoy your day where ever you are in the world!
