We’re back to baking banana bread again. This is We’re back to baking banana bread again. This is an Evie/DF friendly version of my default, from ‘Travels with my Spatula’. Use liquid coconut oil instead of the butter, lob in some blueberries (because she loves them) and omit the espresso, but add a tsp of vanilla paste. Toast it and don’t for a second pretend it isn’t cake. (Other good things; sunshine, sea breezes and three year olds insisting on being Mermaid Pirates- because really that feels like a story angle that someone should capitalise on.
The school holiday juggle is a tricky one. Very gr The school holiday juggle is a tricky one. Very grateful for this piece of heaven down the road as a substitute office for some of this morning/for the boy being now big enough to entertain himself by clambering over rocks without me having to hover over every step in eternal vigilance/and for day care for the girl/threenager so I can spend a bit of 1:1 time with him. You’re only as free as your youngest child- right (?) (or the one you’re parenting that day).
I was trying to find something to wear for new hea I was trying to find something to wear for new headshots for the book on Friday, when the words of @mscaitlinmoran came to life. My wardrobe is now a Bad Narnia. (Can I rock my leggings and gym gear? Motherhood is essentially a contact sport, right? )
Monday morning meal prepping with Evie while Will Monday morning meal prepping with Evie while Will does his words. ‘Mum, have we finished our home-work now too?’ APT Evie G. Apt. (Small hacks at the moment- cutting up veg and putting a little bit of water in the bottom of the Tupperware helps keep them crisp). Also chewing prepped veg stops me mindlessly chewing my nails/pens while I procrastinate while writing. Roast veg to be thrown in oven at 4 after pickup and destined for a salad with quinoa and pesto for dinner tonight.
How did it get to be Monday again? A weekend of wi How did it get to be Monday again? A weekend of winter swimming with one of my best women (she’s right, you never regret a swim), dawn ambles with another, bulk cooking and feasting, jewellery making with ‘more is more’ Evie G and the first tooth lost for Will. And spring is in the air. Huzzah.
I’d like to thank my 7 am self for electing to g I’d like to thank my 7 am self for electing to get started on making this beany veg stew, primped with a Parmesan rind, rather than playing Pokemon cards with Mr 7 (his dad got to do that instead). This will be lunches and I’ll fold through some kale, chilli and more Parmesan for dinner tonight. Big weeks all around; finishing up endnotes for the advance reader copies of ‘Grace’ 🥰 and falling behind on word count for the second one. Best get back to it. (Also, what do you think the chances are that my kids will eat this? 😂)
I gorged on this beauty last night from @molly.wiz I gorged on this beauty last night from @molly.wizenberg . Thank you for writing it Molly. I have always loved how Molly captures the small details of the big, big stuff in life. ‘A Homemade Life’ made me want to write about food and this one gets into the sticky marrow of marriage, motherhood, sexuality, who we love, why and took my breath away. Read it with a large glass of red wine in hand.
Well, this is exciting. I just got to offset our c Well, this is exciting. I just got to offset our cars for the next year using @goneutralnow . It launched today in Australia by some of the best brains I know. Please go check it out and share widely. (Also @katedezarnaulds - you just got yours done as part of an early birthday present). The change starts with us...
Lloyd’s face sums up a lot about turning seven i Lloyd’s face sums up a lot about turning seven in 2020. Two of my date/cocoa cakes stacked together sandwiched with cream cheese frosting and frosted Oreo Lego buttons. Twenty bucks says the kids just eat the Oreos. 😂 (more cake for me).
Seven years ago today this one made me a mum. If I Seven years ago today this one made me a mum. If I said I didn’t have ‘show me a child at seven and I’ll show you the man’ in my head this morning, I’d be lying. I think we did ok. Talk about nominative determinism. He is Will-ful, but empathetic, has a keen sense of justice, rhythm, curiosity and spunk. As a baby he never lay still - and the same boundless appetite for life still runs through him. Many days still start at 4 am, but he makes me laugh and widen my eyes often in awe. If I could go back to that new mum I’d say; ‘breathe it in, slow down. You can’t do it all at the same time and it’s madness to try.’ But she probably wouldn’t listen. Some of us don’t run that way. Love you little man.
