Phew! What a crazy busy week it has been. I thought it would be fun to recap with some photos. Bastille Day - View of City from Eureka 89 as part of my brunch with Mum. Monday - Sunset from my balcony and a relaxing night after a busy weekend os shopping and girly treats with Mum. Tuesday - Late night at Ludlow Bar in Southbank for a fundraising event for work. Tough crowd but managed to raise $6,500. Thank you everyone. Wednesday - A sleepy me had an amazing dinner with a girlfriend at the recently opened Touche Hombre Electrica  in South Yarra. If you love Mexican food, check it out! I can recommend the New Jack Cheese Fondue. Thursday - Homemade mushroom and thyme pasta with Brie cheese and an early night after watching America's Next Top Model. Friday - Thai food from Blossom Thai in Toorak Road and home to enjoy a lovely bottle of wine with dinner and a good girly catch up with girlfriend number 2 for the week. ...

As part of my weekend with Mum we thought we would celebrate Bastille Day in style. So we headed to Eureka 89 for their Bastille Day Brunch. The Golden Bees on the Front of The Eureka Tower We entered via the red carpet and were escorted to the lift and up to the amazing 89th floor to be presented with glasses of Laurent Perrier Champagne a wonderful ambience and an amazing view. Views over Fed Square As mum and I mingled with our fellow diners we all had fun trying to find our houses and spotting familiar landmarks. Some easier to find then others. The building I live in can be seen below. Look for the tall black building in the middle distance. That's me! Views over The Botanical Gardens towards South Yarra Before we got too dizzy from the view and the champagne (at 10am and on an empty stomach) we were escorted into the dining the room where we were serenaded by an amazing french duo as we took our seats. ...
