Will you meet me in the middle, will you meet me in the air?

 Day 6 of our Eden holiday began with a visit to Pambula Tea Rooms. My family and I enjoyed tea and cakes for breakfast. I really loved the vanilla slice and chocolate cheesecake that I shared with my dad.

After a big sugar rush and very full tummies, we wandered to Mechanic's Botanics where we admired the ceramics, handmade hats and unique pieces.

Next we went into Pambula's Wholefood Store, where I bought a jar of organic beef tallow for $24.95. Don't call me a hippy, but I have heard that it's a great natrural moisturiser alternative and very good for your skin so I was looking forward to trying it. Since using it, I have absolutely loved it. One of my favourite times of the day is when I wash my face in the evening and put on a face cream or oil. Instead of buying traditional souveniers (like magnets) on holidays, sometimes I like to buy face creams instead. Last year in Tasmiania, I loved the Bruny Island face cream with manuka honey.

Funnily enough I practically wore this exact outfit in Tasmania, in the link I included above. With its big sleeves and bright colour, this hand-me-down dress from my mum has been lovely to wear.

Then we visited Pambula beach and dipped our feet in the water. For lunch, I made sausages, sandwich steaks, onions and salad (not pictured) and after digesting, we went swimming in the beach.




Our afternoon included oysters and a DJ playing music on the beach.

    I can never resist trying out a new face cream but can honestly say I never heard of organic beef tallow for the skin!
    Pambula sounds like a wonderful place to spend a day, and I'm swooning over that gorgeous dress of yours! xxx

    Pambula Tea Rooms looks fabulous both inside and out . Love the photo of you, your dad and your sister and you and your mum look so pretty in your floral frocks.
    I like the idea of buying a beauty product as a holiday souvenir. I usually buy a locally made bar of soap. xxx

After 11 weeks of term 2, preparing reports and completing parent-teacher interviews, I farewelled my grade 2 students, and began my two weeks of holidays. I was looking forward to spending time with my family and grandparents, as well as squeezing in some day trips. My mum and I returned to our favourite place, Daylesford. It was a cold, winter's day so we rugged up in big coats which kept us surprisingly toasty. I wore my tartan coat that I recently bought at a market. I had been looking for a big, long coat for some time as well as watching Gilmore Girls and admiring all of the beautiful coats worn on the show. So when I found this brand new coat, I was happy to hand over my $25. At Daylesford, we first roamed the Vintage Mills Market. It's always fun to have a look at the unique items. I found a vintage, leopard coat. It was a bit pricey, so I thought about it for some time and then decided to buy it as it was a dream item that I have been searching for, for probably over 1...

Earlier in the year, my family and I visited a strawberry farm in Bacchus Marsh. My sister and I love visiting fruit farms and being able to pick our own fruit! The strawberries were much sweeter and tastier than the bland ones usually found in supermarkets. I was delighted to buy some apples too. They had no wax on which is basically unheard of these days. Next we visited a beautiful, old church. I love how the arches are reminiscent of Noah's Ark. Even the door is purposely designed and ornate. We ended the day with some waffles I made from scratch and ate many more strawberries. Title : Dear Boy by Paul & Linda McCartney.

 Where do you buy your clothing from? Opshops? Online shops? Retail stores? For a while, I hadn't been buying much clothing as my wardrobe is absolutely full! From time to time, I sell pieces from my wardrobe on eBay to slowly thin out my collection. Although recently I fell into an eBay rabbit hole and have purchased quite a few nice dresses.  I bought this  Tree Of Life  dress on eBay after admiring the exact same one my mum has. I tried on her dress, so knew which size to buy. It popped up immediately when I looked it up online, and for less than $30 including postage, it was mine ! Leopard is always fabulous, I think. I enjoyed wearing it for a get-together with family friends at my uncle Arthur's house a little while ago. This cotton, brown and cream kaftan was also from Tree of Life. I wore it recently when going to see Simple Minds play at the Red Hot Summer Tour. And boy was it hot, at 35 °C     we were so sweaty, people were fainting around us...
