This is my new favourite snack joint. Babycakes.com.au has opened up on 66 Erskine st, right near my work. I grabbed a dozen – which, by the way, isn’t enough to feed my hungry team. Next time I will get 24.
The super-cute menu. I loved the Madeira and hokey pokey flavours.
My dearest Shelby is getting married! I am so happy for her and so excited! We spent Sunday in full-wedding mode, flicking through bridal mags, looking things up on the internet and watching the best wedding movie of them all, Muriel’s Wedding. Shell and I have loved Muriel’s Wedding for many years, so it provided the perfect background for the pigging out (oh yes, there were lollies!) and wedding-overload.
Even though Shell has her ring, we ended up looking at jewellery sites anyway. I found a few pieces that I thought were just beautiful. I don’t want to look at the prices, I just want to appreciate the exquisite designs from Canturi and Tiffany.
I can’t believe how much cakes cost! I can’t find a pic of the amazing bird cage cake we saw, but we also checked out these. The first one is taken from a illustrator who designs amazing cards and more in the design below. Beautifully done.
This one was a bit of a surprise. A little saucy for a wedding perhaps?
I also introduced Shell to my fave website, Etsy, where they have an amazing wedding section where you can get the most amazing handmade things like invitations, stationary in general, cake toppers, jewellery, table decorations and more.
I couldn’t believe Bev had never been to Newtown before. It’s my fave indie shopping Mecca, so met her for lunch, shopping and more food on a sunny Saturday.
Before shopping we needed to fuel up with some Thai that Newtown is famous for.
My fried rice and veges was amazing.
Bev’s beef thingy was enough for two. She said it was delicious. A shame I didn’t write down the name of the place!
After shopping, more snacks at Cafe C – my ice chocolate and Bev’s strawberry smoothie.
Churros and chocolate.
My shopping results – dress with little white hearts, books to read on the plane and warm peach cobbler-flavoured lip balm. It smells divine.
I had my first full beauty treatment today at Ayurve Spa on York St. I took my favourite clients for a bit of a treat – and was completely unprepared for the extreme bliss it brought!
