Prising Nick away from his precious car racing on a Sunday is pretty difficult but I was going insane and needed some sunshine. We popped into Flamingo for afternoon tea and I remembered to bring the camera to document its adorableness. Flamingo is a cafe in the laneway behind the Zoo, I highly recommend visiting…

Lessons Learned/ Favourites
Five lessons learned 1. Social media is awesome fun, but social media + touching content = viral phenomenon. I posted this short film by Josh Beattie on my Tumblr last week after his Mum shared it on Twitter, and as of this morning it had 28k likes and reblogs and 134,952 views on YouTube. That’s…
The Axis of Fat hit Southbank.
I am so fortunate to have wonderful local friends who are also devastatingly attractive fatshionistas. A few years ago when I was bemoaning the lack of fat activism in Australia, I was getting to know two of my friends Zoe and Sonya a lot better and out of our friendship we developed the Axis of…
My sister’s wedding
My sister got married yesterday (which is why the desktop isn’t up yet, sorry!) so I want to share some photos with you. Where my wedding was more unconventional in its styling, Michelle and Jordan’s wedding was more traditional with the big white dress and veil as well as dark suits for the groom and…

My radio debut on 612 ABC Brisbane
This morning I had a chat with Chris O’Brien on 612 ABC Brisbane and we talked about fat acceptance and the burgeoning movement within Australia. I’m still really sick so I sound all sultry and crook, so I invited Nick to come with me because I was worried I’d pass out or trail off into…
Up on the hill
Wednesday was an Ekka (the Royal Show) holiday for most Briswegians and I wanted to get out of the house for a little while because working at home is great and all but sometimes you want to do stuff outside! We went up to the top of Mt Coot-tha. That’s Brisbane! I wish you could…
Detail oriented
I took a bunch of photos at Mt Coot-tha Botanical Gardens the other week and most of the photos I took were of details. You might have noticed, but I am a fan of finely detailed things. I thought I’d post some of these just in case you’re inspired by details in nature too.
