Well it’s that time of the week again – time for our weekly roundup! It’s been quite a week around this neck of the woods.
We moved house and studio last weekend (leaving us without internet until yesterday….sigh), we were super lucky and won tickets for the Auckland Seafood Festival this weekend through Te Awa Winery, and had some lovely birthday celebrations out with friends and delicious cakes from the lovely Made From Scratch.
The shop also had a big week being featured in the Etsy Finds email with our Full of Hearts gift wrap, our Blue bird gift wrap making the front page and our Your My Superhero note cards made the new To & From Valentine’s Day Guide - all of which has left me feeling well – a bit lovely dovey!
With Valentine’s Day coming up, I thought I might just theme up this week’s Weekly Roundup with a bit of a romantic feel. We also have heaps of gift tags, cards, prints all for that special day in our shop, so shop on by and have a nosey!
- These sparkly hearts make the perfect accessory for that sharp blazer or pretty bun!
- A sweet treat made with bittersweet chocolate is a direct line to my heart.
- Is there anything better than a luxury picnic with the ones you love?
- Cold never looked so cute with these leggings.
- I sure do love a relaxing bath after a long stressful day!
- Time to spruce up those cocktails…mmm… pomegranate…
I hope you all have had a great week and have fun plans for the weekend ahead! Until next time… x
I have a soft spot for products made locally. When you combine that soft spot with cooking and beautiful packaging – things get can get a bit crazy! Over the past year, I’ve been lucky enough to meet Jo from Bees Blessing. And I can guarantee she is as delightful as all their products!
Tonight I made an absolutely delicious marinade for our chicken made with their latest treasure: Lemon & Thyme. I’ve never tasted anything so tender and full of flavour – it was absolutely fantastic. The chicken tenderloins were only marinaded for 30 minutes before being grilled. Here is what I made this evening (give or take).
1/4 cup Bees Blessing
3 Tbs soy sauce
2 tsp fresh ginger
2 Tbs fresh garlic
1 tsp chili flakes
1 tsp dried coriander
The chicken was served along side a large green salad made out of:
baby spinach
basil
sundried tomato feta
sundried tomatoes
pine nuts
sunflower seeds
Look for Bees Blessing in a cafe or store near you and make sure to pick it up on your next shop! I guarantee you won’t regret it!
To all my readers in the southern hemisphere - Happy Summer everyone! As you may have read from my previous post – the weather here in Auckland has been a bit pants but as of tomorrow we’re supposed to experience sun for a whole week! I’m getting quite excited about the prospect of going to the beach, exploring waterfalls, going on walks – oh the possibilities!
Yesterday we went strawberry picking – my first time berry picking! I had such a blast even though it was a bit drizzly out and we left the fields with 4.2kg worth of delicious, ruby red strawberries! In hindsight that may have been a bit of overkill but we had a blast doing it and now have heaps of berries for our morning smoothies – win win!
So with all this excitement of summer I decided to make this weekly roundup a bright and colourful one! I hope you’re all having a great holiday!
- Stunning single Marbella Hammock from Citta Design – want.
- Beautiful packaging done by Curious Design for Phoenix Organic beverages – it just looks so refreshing!
- I’ll take two margaritas please!
- Protection from the sun is important down here – this stylish hat is available at Witchery.
- You scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream! This beautifully packaged organic ice cream picked up a silver award at the Best Awards this year.
- You can’t beat a good beach towel – Country Road has a great range on sale now!
I sure do hope you are all enjoying some delicious sun and enjoying the holidays with those close to you! x

My oh my who can believe we’re onto our last day of November 2012! I can still remember last year as if it were yesterday… still living in Wellington, just printing our 2012 calendar, getting excited for my parents visit to New Zealand…oh how time flys!
With time flying so quickly it helps us realise how much we really do have to cherish the little moments and those special people around us. With that I came up with this week’s roundup – a simple but elegant collection of different gifts for the sisters / mothers / friends in your life! I personally sent off my mom and sister’s gifts in the post today (next time must think feather light pressies!) as tomorrow is the last day for internation air parcels to arrive on time! (a little hint hint for those waiting to purchase items x)
- This week I discovered Sprout and Sparkle from Brisbane, Australia and frankly would be over the moon to receive anything from their beautiful store!
- What better way of saying hello to those close to you than a cheeky reminder in their wardrobe.
- Have lots of gifts to buy this year? This lovely pamper package by Little Flower Soap Co is sure to bring a smile without breaking your wallet!
- For a personal touch try a monogram mug available from Anthropologie.
- These funky socks from J.Crew will surely brighten up your stocking stuffers!
- Want to give something a bit more personal? Baking is a fantastic affordable way to show you care this season!
