Hi - welcome along to this little blog - I live in Adelaide, South Australia with my husband and 3 year old son. We live in an old house on a bit of land where we spend time cooking, gardening and hanging out with each other and friends.... this blog is designed to keep a record of the things we get up to as a family, and the stuff that's got me thinking and keeping me up at night!
