K K Katie!

Do you read What Katie Wore? I think you should.

What are your must-reads? I love adding new blogs to my reader (then never finding time to read them...)

Daily Outfit: Welcoming spring!

It's still a bit cold out but I'm hoping my colourful skirt will encourage the sun to linger a little longer.

Daily Outfit: What Alice did

Although I've never worn this particular combo before, I feel like this is most like my signature look: white, black, red and blue with a phwoofy skirt.

Daily Outfit: Commence the Colour Block!

Spring showery days are perfect for wearing lots of colour.



My hair is getting far too long!

An absence of sorts

Oh folks, I've done it to you again!

It's not that I don't want to blog.... I desperately want luxurious hours spent on google reader, palming through my blogroll. I want to share with you all the colour and fun I've been having lately. But, yknow, I've been busy. Turns out being a citizen of the world takes time, and between my community (musical!) service, cooking and seeing all my friends that I've neglected during term time, the result is a neglected blog.

To add to the list of lame excuses - my computer is struggling to pick up wifi so I find myself only on the internet when I am physically attached to it via a cable. Not so glamorous.



I made Szechuan eggplant last week! I was rather pleased. A spring vegetable quiche too - asparagus is so delicious at the moment. Perhaps I'll buy a muffin tray and try some choc banana treats.

Otherwise?

• Still reading my eyes off,
  
• trying to solve the storage puzzle of having toomanyshoes (and dresses, and handbags, and, well, everything),
  
• seeing long lost friends,
  
• running,
  
• and thinking about all the fun things I'll do at the end of the year (overseas travel!)

How are you though?

Daily Outfit: Blue Sunday

One of those lovely Sundays - snooze in, dumplings with a long-lost friend, tea outside in the afternoon and then rehearsal with a new ensemble.

Daily Outfit: The Ruff

Work then play. I love the ruffles on this navy shirt but it is quite voluminous.

Oh yes, we bought a microwave!

Daily Outfit: Kimono

We now live near the Central Markets. This means we can pick up groceries in a hurry and Chinatown is only a short dinner stroll away. However a few pickles have popped up lately: is it totally inappropriate for manfriend to wear a tae kwon do tshirt to an Asian restaurant (oops!)? Should I change out of my kimono to go to dinner?

Oh, the troubles of modern life....

Daily Outfit: Mixed patterns

I really love red, white and blue all together.




The kids like to let me know when my outfits give them a headache. Today was one of those days!

Science Week

I may have missed the official Science Week (oops!) but it feels like every week is science week over here. During my school holidays I've been reading New Scientist magazine over breakfast, devouring John Wyndham's Trouble with Lichen and seeing if Paul Hewitt can give me any insights as to how I can present the next topic to my physics classes.
