I have the pleasure of being able to share with readers today an exciting 2012 ‘Thrifty Thursday’ partnership Miscellaneous Mum has made with Savers Australia – The Recycle Superstore. Over the duration of the year I will be occasionally posting about the internationally renowned recycled clothing and homewares store and discussing in a wider sense…
Earth hath not anything to show more fair: Dull would he be of soul who could pass by A sight so touching in its majesty: This City now doth, like a garment, wear The beauty of the morning; silent, bare, Ships, towers, domes, theatres and temples lie Open unto the fields, and to the sky;…
So I was going to post another picture of today’s state of the kitchen and juxtapose that with yesterday’s shot, but do you know what? I DON’T HAVE TO BECAUSE IT LOOKS THE SAME (minus the bottle of rum, granted). A word in defense, however, is that today’s mess was brought to us by the good…

Last night was the birthday bash of a good friend of ours and this is – luckily – the only evidence of said party: a post-11pm shot of we merry two before we had to leave and get back to the babysitter. As we walked home together, a couple of teenagers were out on the…
I’ve had this bike for years now and the number of times it’s been out and used wouldn’t even hit double-digits.
