Sitting here wondering if I'm Pollyanna or Eeyore - Day 319: Much delayed catch up with my friend Heather + Noah

I finally caught with my dear wonderful friend from FedEx days Heather and it was just like old times.

Lots of talking, lots of yum cha, laughter and an afternoon of shopping. Admittedly I am not flush with cash so my shopping was limited to two toys on special at MYER for Zara and Noah but we had a ball checking a fabulous band called Winterbourne in Pitt St Mall, checking out the Christmas decos in DJs and MYER and wandering all over the City.

An absolutely brilliant afternoon.

And here's the latest shot of adorable Noah ...

Sitting here wondering if I'm Pollyanna or Eeyore - Day 207: Brunch, presents and dinner to the Max

Started the day off with yummy food at The Book Kitchen - brunch with Steve's friend Brian from London and Fahmi and Stephen Moore. Followed this with yummy pastries from Bourke Street Bakery across the road.

Then Steve and I went to Broadway and then Newtown to buy gifts for his nieces and nephews in Melbourne ... and we encountered some street art in the back streets of Newtown. 

And after a brief rest at home, finished off with a fabulously enjoyable dinner in the City at Mr Chow's with the wonderful team from Max Coaching where I am doing some work at present.
