This is not a me-wearing-clothes-trying-to-make-them-look-good-and-not-be-awkward post. It's about a little getaway that I went on a few weekends ago. I think it's really healthy to just take time out from work, you routine, social commitments (eg: catch ups, partying etc.) to just escape to a different surrounding and have some 'you' time. In my case, whenever I just need to get out of the Gold Coast, I head an hour and a bit inland to my Nana's house in Beaudesert. To me it is basically in the middle of nowhere and for a weekend I absolutely love it! She has a little house on five acres which is filled with all of our family memorabilia and cute little knick-nacks that she collects. The "farm" as we call it has a vege patch, fruit trees, a dam, chickens, old tin sheds and lots of pretty flowers. Oh and a black and white cat who when he puts his two front paws together, his patch makes a love heart. Just couldn't get him to sit still long enough to get a photo! I see a lot of myself in my Nana: homeliness, routine, love of clothes, cooking and ornaments, bargain hunting, her humor and her kindness. I just wanted to share something a little different and write about something dear to me. Hope you all have a little special place like this!
PS. Her lemon butter tarts are amazing!
