Here are some random things we get up to while we’re working hard to bring you great content, helping you love your life!
I tend to overthink things, and I can talk myself out of something before I even begin. If I had known what was ahead, I think I would have put myself under a lot of pressure to succeed. Ignorance can be bliss! There are plenty of posts about “what I wish I knew when I … Read more
Every now and then, Sydney puts on an incredible show at sunset. This evening was one of those, don’t you reckon? Let’s hope the rest of this week’s just as illuminating! And then boom! The very next day starts just as amazingly as yesterday ended! Mrs Romance is out and about early again this morning … Read more
Do you ever wonder what bloggers did before they were bloggers? Mrs Romance worked in corporate before she started Hair Romance, and before that she worked in interior design. As for me, I was an English teacher, and a freelance journo and copywriter. I no longer teach, but I just can’t seem to get the … Read more
Mrs Romance has just asked me what my favourite line from a movie is. I couldn’t really think of one at first but she’s clearly been thinking about this for a while.

I reckon I’ve wasted so much time over the years trying to take a picture of lightning. I’ve even tried to take screen-shots of video footage. It always looked rubbish. I used to be quite scared of storms when I was a kid. I think most kids are. But then my mum took me out … Read more
After the weekend’s break in Coogee, getting back to normal life’s going to be a stretch. Mrs Romance’s pic this morning has helped though How pretty is the Harbour today? And the little rotunda-pergola-Russian church-top thing (what is that called anyway?) just by the Opera House makes the whole sunrise thing look even better. Glad … Read more
Wow! what a quiet start to the week! Not that I’m complaining, of course! The most momentous thing that’s happened so far is our 3 Top Drinking Gadgets is up on site now. We’ve given the low-down on three little gizmos that we use all the time to make our drinking life at home as … Read more
