One Sparkly Life

Today I am off to the Deni Ute Muster , in Deniliquin NSW, for work. As the charity of choice for this massive event, it's all hands on deck this weekend to raise awareness and funds. I can't wait to share some pictures and stories with you all when I return. My brother, who is attending this year too, tells me it is THE major event on the ute enthusiast calendar. I'm looking forward to sharing this country institution with him and raising some great money to boot. (ha no pun intended). So this little city girl is heading back to the country to regain some of the of the things she left behind when she moved to the big smoke and embrace all that this weekend offers. I wonder what they will think of bright pink gumboots??? Plenty of pictures to follow when I return! xxx

Stay tuned to find out where I end up sometime in the next month.

It's been a busy last part of the week. With work unveiling a piece of art that we created as part of a team bonding with Mind Gallery last month, a new team bonding experience with dinner and a make up class at Mecca Cosmetica in the city and then drinks and mexican snacks with some of the girls at my place as part of the Dine at Mine Fundraising campaign for Camp Quality ! Phew and that was just Thursday and Friday! Leftovers from my Mexican feast. Homemade Salsa and Guacmole. Yummy. So Saturday was spent with a spot of shopping and then relaxing in the glorious sun on my balcony with some mexican leftovers. Today it was off to my new favourite hang out Two Birds One Stone . Love, love, love their menu and can't wait to work my way through it. Certainly worth the wait. I can see the next few weekends spent lazing around this busy but laid back place. Summer in training. I can't wait! Two Birds Breakfast Special.  It's an early ni...
