Yesterday

we all went out together to drop me off at the hairdresser I had an appointment after all but when I arrived I was embarrassed to find out that my appointment wasn't today but last week, oops!!  I've been visiting my hairdresser for a while now luckily, so he forgave me and cut my hair anyway.
My poor family  had a bit of a wait so we took a little visit to Chinatown, had a bit of lunch and the girls happily drank their raspberry spiders.
Do you remember having these as a child?  I remember fondly a couple of old ladies that my Mum used to visit to cut their hair who would give my brother and I one, what a yummy treat that was.
While we were close by I couldn't resist a little trip to the Paddington Antique Centre for a little look,  I spied many beautiful treasures.

There's also a yummy chocolate shop beside the antique centre that makes a very delicious dark chocolate milkshake that I had to visit too.

Today it was a slower day spent gardening,
cuddling up with Molly
and working hard on a important project, a sustainable house, which will be on display at school tomorrow.
May you have a happy week

  6. Sounds like a productive but also relaxing weekend. I turned up at my hairdresser once apologising for being so early, only to find out I was actually half an hour late :)

  7. The sustainable house looks awesome! My hubby and I love Chinatown but haven't been in the longest time. Hope you are feeling refreshed after your haircut - I love how it has that power! Good to know Montys does a good chocolate milkshake. I took Brian in there (and the antique centre) to get Kevin's Easter gift. Two perfect places NOT to take a toddler!!
