Vibrations

June 13, 2012 The (misc.) Adventures of Grumble Girl

I’m still vibrating from this house party I went to over a week ago… it was to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of some very cool people we know. TWENTY years. It feels like an almost impossible amount of time, but then, Martin and I have been together for nearly that long too. Sometimes it [...]

Still Here

November 1, 2011 The (misc.) Adventures of Grumble Girl

Well, it’s been a long while since I’ve been around these parts (again) but it’s only because oftentimes I’m writing over here and uploading outfits from my closet over here whenever I have time to write at all, since summer tends to be a bust when the kids are home so much, and September tends [...]

The Girl’s Night In With Our New Friend, Senor Sauza

June 13, 2011 The (misc.) Adventures of Grumble Girl

When I went to bed, just shortly before 2 AM Friday night, I first had to shake some kosher salt out of my bra. Maybe a small bit of watermelon rind too. These are signs of a good party, yo. Earlier in the week, I thought I’d invite a few of my neighbourhood foxes over [...]

Channelling Your Inner Charro

June 8, 2011 fashion & beauty stuff

You know how I’m a total sucker for a ruffled shirt, right? Well, last week I bought not one, but TWO of them! I wandered into Bedo, which has been one of my favourite go-to stores for quite some time now… I think I end up buying some form of jacket or blazer from them [...]

Soft Lips

June 7, 2011 The (misc.) Adventures of Grumble Girl

A few months back, I was at a kid birthday party, and struck up a conversation with another mother, and her charming husband. They were slightly hung over from the evening before, and I was desperate for a nap (as usual) and so be proceeded to have the funniest conversation you could dare to expect, [...]

On Fashion Soirees, Raves, and Date Nights.

June 6, 2011 entertainment stuff

It’s been some time since I’ve been here… again. What can I tell you? I’ve been writing a whole heap over here, and over here, and my M.I.L. ain’t at all well, and we had to put our dog to rest a few weeks ago… Sometimes life just gets in the way of other things. [...]

Hello Gorgeous!

April 12, 2011 house stuff

Have I ever mentioned how much I love mirrors? Not from a vanity standpoint (I mean, c’mon now) but I do so love the way they bounce light around, and how they play with reflections… Our house is long and narrow, so playing light off the windows makes the place feel airier, and makes the [...]

No Jackets Required.

April 2, 2011 The (misc.) Adventures of Grumble Girl

I went to a dinner party the other night, hosted by one of my neighbour-ladies… each year she invites her girlfriends to supper at her house to celebrate her birthday. Not only is she a master at arranging an artful, delicious table full of savoury foods and sublime desserts, but it’s an opportunity to hang [...]

Nothing Says I love You Like Weapons of Mass Destruction.

February 14, 2011 The (misc.) Adventures of Grumble Girl

It’s Valentine’s Day, and though we’re not over-the-top with celebrating and stuff, I thought I’d get a few things for the kids. So they can beat the hell out of each other. Which saves mummy the hassle. (Gawd, I love these kids…) Whaaaaat?! Wasn’t there a MASSACRE and whatnot on this day? C’mon…. I’m not [...]
