Flavour Of The Month (FOTM) is our nod to old-school blogging days. We’re sharing a taste – a ‘flavour’ if you will – of what’s happened in the month just gone.
Why do we do this?
There are a few reasons actually. First and foremost, we like to be able to google our lives. All too often, Christina has asked me when we did something and all I’ve had to do is search Mr & Mrs.
But we also love writing about things that either don’t really fit anywhere else or that isn’t quite a big enough story to have its own stand-alone article.
Best of all, we love sharing important moments of our lives here, so you get a real flavour of what’s happening with us in these posts.
This week we’re out and about in the north and east of Sydney, and I’m taking over from Jim to tell you what’s been happening. We’re also swapping roles at home too, with me stepping into the kitchen to try a new recipe that I think you’ll love too. I hate karaoke. I don’t enjoy … Read more
Farewell March, hello April! I don’t know about you, but this year seems to be going at two different speeds for us. It’s zooming by on one hand, and yet it also seems to be crawling past in slow motion, packing more and more into each week for us as time progresses. This week is … Read more
After last week’s trip to Melbourne, Christina is back on the road on another hair odyssey with Samsung and Optus – this time in Brisbane. Not only was the launch of the new Galaxy 10 in Queensland a success, Christina’s also brought home some great tips on where to eat and where to stay in … Read more
This week is a tale of two cities – Jim is in Sydney and I’m in Melbourne. As part of my work with Hair Romance, I’m down here working with Optus and Samsung to launch the new Galaxy S10. It’s the most fun campaign with the goal of taking better profile pics for everybody. Meanwhile, … Read more
This Weekly Edition is a very special one. From our very first published story back in 2013 to now, this is our 1000th post! It’s been an amazing journey to get this far, and we’re looking forward to bringing you the next thousand stories. In this Weekly Edition, we’ve got some intriguing Sydney food venues … Read more
Of course, time does fly when you’re having fun; but it seems to go even faster when you’re busy. This is a real worry for me. The start of the year seems to have already disappeared in a blink and it hasn’t really been that busy. Now it’s March and things are setting up to … Read more
We’ve been lucky enough to have spent quite a bit of time in, around and nearby this beautiful building this past week. The funny thing is Christina showed me an article showing illustrations of other submissions for what the Sydney Opera House could have looked like. Some were striking, others were nothing past dull. And … Read more
Whether you like it or not, Valentine’s week is billed as the most romantic week of the year. And in fact, only Christmas Day beats Feb 14 with more wedding proposals. Of course, Valentine’s Day featured a bit for us this past week, but not as much as you might think. There’s nothing less romantic … Read more
It’s been a torrid week weather-wise here in Sydney. From blazing hot days to afternoons turned to midnight with monster storms. And in the midst of all that, we’ve had birthday parties at the beach, a new baking hobby, an incredible pop-up in Sydney with the Sugar Republic, and some very athletic pool time! We … Read more
Considering this has only been a short week here in Sydney with the Australia Day public holiday, it’s been a pretty epic one. Not to mention that it’s now February somehow… I hope this year doesn’t go too quickly. I’m still trying to come to terms with it not being 2018 anymore! What makes this … Read more
