“I have sea foam in my veins.
I understand the language of waves.”
~ Le Testament d’Orphee
.▬▬▬.
This morning the sand top was graced with foam, looking somewhat like a salty cappuccino.
.▬▬▬.
The foam was warm and stuck to our feet as we waded through the effervescent tide. I love the seaside after a storm. It deposits treasures from the depths of the ocean floor.
.▬▬▬.
What do you love most about an early morning beach walk?

“Love is tattooed on my heart.
Happy Valentine’s Day”.
Exploramum.
▬▬▬
Valentine’s Day can feel really empty if you are single, and more so if you are a single parent at home alone.
Even if the love of a past partner has now gone, or the only love you have is your kids, Valentine’s Day leaves reminders of love tattooed forever on our hearts.
It’s important to get out and have fun, smile and laugh even if you are alone.
For there is a difference between loneliness and being alone.
▬▬▬
This sunset cruise with a happy group of Gold Coast and Brisbane mainly singles was the perfect way to send Valentine’s Day evening.
▬▬▬
I was invited along to take photos which was just a lovely way to meet new people too.
We all had a really great night!
▬▬▬
Did anything special happen for you this Valentine’s Day?

"Life is funny. You start out with limitless poten

"Life is funny. You start out with limitless potential, but time is always shaving away the possibilities.
Every choice you make is the choice not to do a thousand other things. What's important, when all is said and done, is that you made a difference. Your choices, and everything undone, have to mean something.”
~ Unknown

“I didn’t do it!” Oscar thinks as he defiantly looks away, with his face of innocence.
.▬▬▬.
Everything we either do, or don’t do, defines our future. It moulds us, shapes us, and opens & closes doors. .▬▬▬.
Let’s teach the kids of this world to make wise choices, because these choices shape the path we make for the road ahead and our final destination.
.▬▬▬.
We love Oscar! Adding him into our family definitely is one of our better decisions.
.▬▬▬.
How’s your week shaping up?

Our goal for February is to be ‘feeling fit, fabulous, and to be having fun!’
.▬▬▬.
Just a reminder to keep up the fitness in February. It’s been a bit tricky here because we’ve had so much ☔️ rain.
But come rain or shine, my son has been doing his laps in the pool.
.▬▬▬.
We are also focusing on our internal health with Medlab nutritional supplements.
And even if we have the odd treat on the weekend that’s OK.
It’s back to Monday with loads of fresh fruits apple 🍎 🍉 🍏 🍌 and vegetables 🌽🥕 🌶 .
Remember - at least 3 colours in your dinner plate, and 5 servings of vegetables & 3 servings of fruit every day.
.▬▬▬. How are you keeping healthy & fit?

“To eat well, I always disagree with critics who say that all restaurants should be fine dining. You can get a Michelin star if you serve the best hamburger in the world.”
~ David Chang
▬▬▬
It’s great when food isn’t taken too seriously. We discovered a new dining experience on Saturday night and had a great night!
▬▬▬
Originally from the Philippines, these two ex-airline staff now cook up the tastiest Buffalo Wings and Hamburgers on the Gold Coast.
Flavours from many countries in the world grace their menu. There’s even vegetarian burgers 🍔 too!
▬▬▬
We love having family nights out where we can talk about our week, have some fun and I can relax with a red 🍷or white 🍸wine.
And because the light rail is nearby there’s no bother in me needing to find a park.
▬▬▬
What’s your favourite burger? Chicken, beef or vegetarian ... or would you try the crazy Cychoburger???

“Your HOME should tell the story of who you are, and be a Collection of what you Love.”

Let me introduce you to one of my favourite interior design stores here in the Gold Coast.
▬▬▬
Whether you love The Bahamas or The Hamptons, their stunning style is sure to allure you.
▬▬▬
After an hour here I came home and spent 2 hours styling our apartment. I love the nautical and Hamptons style.
▬▬▬
What’s your favourite interior design style. I’d love to know.

“Happiness is a warm puppy.” ~ Charles Shultz
.▬▬▬.
It’s been a tough week for me in so many ways, but the love of a puppy sure helps me get through and he brings us so much happiness.
.▬▬▬.
Oscar (AKA Exploradog) has been feeling very housebound with all the rain ☔️ we’ve been having so I took him out for a walk/run yesterday anyway.
He came back a muddy mess, but a warm bath fixed that.
.▬▬▬.
I wish we could just wash our problems away just as easy as this! I’d definitely pour them all down the drain.
.▬▬▬.
But Sunday is here and the start to a new week.
I’m hoping and praying I resolve some problems from last week without too much expense and it’s a great week.
Happy Sunday everyone!

Chop Chop celebrations for Chinese New Year and their first Birthday were loads of family fun.

If you are heading into Surfers Paradise, wander through the colourful food hall, enjoy the mixed aromas of freshly cooked foods, and be wowed with all the colours of this delightful fusion of nations under one roof.

“Enjoy yourself.
It's later than you think."
~Chinese proverb
▬▬▬
CHOP CHOP turns one, and we were there to help celebrate this amazing food hall’s 1st birthday celebration.
▬▬▬
It was a difficult decision as there were so many restaurants, bars and eateries to choose from.
But every kid, big or small loves a sushi train, so we headed in for Japanese.
▬▬▬
Sitting around the conveyor belt as all the delicious plates pass us by also meant that we were about to watch as dishes were prepared.
▬▬▬
It was lots of fun, immaculately clean, and the food was fresh and tasty.
And the best part was that we enjoyed quality family time together as a Mum and son.
▬▬▬
What’s your favourite Japanese food?
