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.
Well, it’s goodbye to the Aussie summer at last. This week is the last before our clocks change and autumn starts the run-up to winter. On the other hand, I was talking to my mum and dad back in England the other day and they can’t wait for the spring. In the meantime, here’s what … Read more
Mrs Romance has left for Bali, and with the help of her travel companions, has taken ownership of the hashtag #BossLadiesDoBali. Said travel companions consist of the following spectacular women: Carly from Smaggle.com Kate from SecretBloggersBusiness.com Emily from BombshellBaySwimwear.com. Let’s check out what they get up to on the Island of a Thousand Temples. This bar … Read more
It’s funny, I thought I’d come to terms with Mrs Romance’s trip to Fraser Island last weekend. My envy readings had dropped to acceptable levels and she was allowed once again to mention things like ‘sand island’ and ‘four-wheel-driving’ and ‘jetskiing’ without me interrupting her with the sound of grinding teeth. And then she shows me … Read more
Poor Mrs Romance is still struggling along with her broken toe. She’s got such a busy month ahead. In the next three weeks, she’s got trips to two different states in Australia and an international flight a bit later on. She’s got braiding bars, blogging classes and speaking duties at conferences coming out of her … Read more
February is notoriously hot here in Sydney. It does make me cranky. I know I should be relishing it, getting out to the beach, working my tan (he laughs), but all I do is heat up, sweat and complain. It’s got so bad this year Mrs Romance suggested we move to a cooler climate just … Read more
Mrs Romance seems to be everywhere this week. She’s so busy, it’s making me feel like I never leave the house! Here she’s making the most of a ferry ride to Manly to catch up with friends, but this isn’t her only trip planned for the week, oh no. She’s omnipresent in Sydney this week. … Read more
It’s an absolutely lovely start to the week this week! Beautiful skies, warm winds… let’s just hope it lasts. Especially because we’ve got some fun things planned for Valentine’s Day this Saturday. Hmm. Think I might have jinxed things by saying that. Anyway, it’s been a good start to the week blog wise too. We’ve … Read more
I don’t know about you, but February really freaks me out. It’s that moment where it suddenly dawns on you that the new year is well and truly underway – and it’s usually a shock because I’ve done as little as possible up to this point. It’s a real kick in the backside. None the … Read more
And here it is: the end of the first month of January. That’s gone way too fast. And I haven’t even been that drunk for much of it! Well, it is finally the year that Marty McFly goes into the future in Back to the Future II. So perhaps that’s what’s happening. Yup. That’s made … Read more
Finally, we’re getting back into our apartment this week. It’s been almost three months since we’ve spent a night in our own bed. For the most part, it hasn’t felt like that long, but now it comes to it, we’re really looking forward to sleeping at home again. And with the long weekend coming, we’re … Read more
