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.
As characters of our favourite show might announce: Winter is coming! Not that you’d have guessed that from the sunny business Sydney’s making at the moment. I know this probably has the commentator’s curse written all over it, but the weather at the moment is insanely warm. Don’t worry – I’m not going typically English … Read more
I’m in a very good mood today. I got to tell one of my favourite jokes to someone who hadn’t heard it before and Mrs Romance didn’t roll her eyes at it! Here’s the joke, but you’ll have to wait till the end of this week’s diary to find out the punch line! What’s E.T. short … Read more
How is it the middle of May already? I mean, I must be having serious amounts of fun for time to fly by like this. It’s crazy! And not particularly fair either. Mrs Romance and I had all these plans for this year – looks like some of them will have to happen next year! … Read more
Wow! What a great week it’s been. And to finish things off/start things up again, it’s my birthday today!
I’m looking forward to all the fun things Mrs Romance has planned for this day 12th May – the best day of the year. In my opinion! 😉
Hope you had a great week too – tell us what’s been going on with you when you get a minute. We love hearing what you’ve been up to. But for now – here’s the week we’ve had at Romance Media. Enjoy!
Last week was pretty food heavy, so we were intending to have a slightly ‘lighter’ week this week, but things often don’t happen the way you plan them! My good intentions are doomed from the start really, as I’ve agreed to take up an eating challenge on Saturday. Let’s just say the ‘steaks’ are high. … Read more
It’s probably true to say it’s not healthy to spend all week thinking about when it’ll end. But this time, I don’t think we’re alone – after all, it’s Easter long weekend! Mrs Romance kicks off this week’s Instagram Diary with a beautiful shot of the Sydney skies between rain storms. It’s been a wet … Read more
We start the week off with a visit to a gallery exhibition. Lexi of Potty Mouth Mama fame has invited us to see her husband Matthew Kentmann’s collection of paintings. Matthew’s drawn his inspiration from the Australian coastline. Beautiful works. We like this one the most. There’s something quite spiritual about the collection. It reminds … Read more
Mrs Romance kicks off this week with this beautiful view over breakfast. She’s enjoying her first meal of the week at the Shangri-La Hotel. It’s beautiful up here. It’s a busy week ahead of us – especially Mrs R – with the final night of the AHFA Australian Hair and Fashion Awards tonight and a … Read more
It’s great to have Mrs R back from Melbourne today. It was very strange not having her around. Not to mention the fact that we’ve got plans for visiting a whole load of restaurants this week. So if I was to turn up to a booking for two on my own… well that just wouldn’t … Read more
Today we’re thinking about all the things that have inspired our travels. We’ve started by talking about five books that have given us the motivation to see the world. We’re still working on where we should go this year – but I think we’re getting there. Our Instagram competition has come to an end today. … Read more
