Master Z & my sexy new shoes...

So I am on my way to Sydney for my interview (that stated a passion for wine as a criteria... heck yeah baby!) and as I am on my way to the city I am wearing fabulous new shoes ($9 from Vinnies!). Here is the conversation that lead us to the bus.

MZ - Why are you so slow, I have your (girly*) bag?

MR - My feet cannot go any faster!

MZ - What? That is because you're walking funny... is this because of your new shoes?

MR - I am tottering - rushing in heels is no easy feat - and no the burning of my feet has nothing to do with my fabulous shoes!

MZ - *sigh (I am defeated*) they really do look good.

* Miss R may have taken slight creative liberties in these two - or so - sentances...

So yay... Sydney I love you - see you soon! Also thanks Jenny Lawson for entertaining me on the way :) here book "Lets pretend this never happened..." is all I expected and more!

#26 (Part A)

Today I stumbled across the extraordinary Purple Swamphen (aka. Australian *cough-fake Pukeko) along the riverside as Master Z was trying to take me for a romantic stroll... apparently it is not polite to ignore your partner to photograph "dumb birds" when a man is making an effort to be romantic... woops.

For those of you who have seen the mischevious Pukeko in action, the Purple Swamphen is the same hight (around 1/2 meter) and in my opinion is black not purple, they are also less cheeky then their New Zealand cousins. They are however almost as adorable and gave me some homesickness pangs!

Late start but the list has begun... now to find the illusive Koala (outside a zoo) and spend a day at the spa ;p who is coming with?

Luv always,

The Great Australian Adventure Vol.2.2

So I figured I have not given a decent update in a while so here goes...

I am not sure if this is just my friends and myself or everyone, but we all seem to want to share our lives when it is amazing but need to share most when life is not and this is when we hide. I think it is time to break this habit – though right now I am feeling awesome even though things in my life are not... so here is hoping that I can remember this sentiment in the near future *crosses fingers.

As you all know Master Z has broken his collarbone, his surgery went well and even the doctor has agreed that he is healing up nicely.
We are currently residing just out of Mudgee (a few hours from Sydney), I live in wine country :) today I even found a wine bar to my liking (to be honest, Master Z has been saying that this is my place for a while but alas it likes to be closed when I am available for vino *sigh). Sajo's is without a doubt where I will be spending some serious time - it is even where I am writing this :P.

So here I am, in the COUNTRY! As you can see from the photo's, Master Z's Grandparents farm is magical! But it does not change the fact that a city girl is trying to survive in the country.
We are not staying in the main house - so we have an outhouse (stop laughing... it is not as bad as it sounds...) and the other night – after torrential rain - I fell in the mud, not joking.

I laughed so hard I almost cried, but this is due to the fact that it was a laugh or cry moment and I have serious issues with crying, it makes me feel weak and pathetic.

Master Z and I are seriously in each other’s grills (though this does not change the fact that we are crazy in love – though I do slightly want to yell at him a lil every now and again... I think this is because we are both missing our independence) and I am going insane in the membrane without a job (or friends). Operation employment (ANYWHERE) starts for real on Monday so look out Mudgee, here I come!

Today I also spoke to Miss H (congrats on the engagement you sexy biach... I cannot wait to be at your wedding! oxox) and Miss T.H, also via Viber chat I had a mad yarn with Miss LL so as you can imagine, I am feeling indestructible – though maybe that is the wine :P.

Master Z’s family has been more then wonderful and I wish there was a way I could thank them/show my gratitude for their awesomeness but at this time, I cannot figure out how so we will see what happens in the future.

So all in all, life is much peachier then it was 48hrs ago and I am happy :D. Chat with you all soon.

Love forever,

Miss R xoxo

Bluebirds the Word

When things are not exactly going to plan there is nothing quite like an accidental discovery of a long time loved junkfood... Rashuns (photo - of empty packet - to follow tomorrow) were todays discovery in the international isle of Coles Dubbo, paired with a punnet of strawberry yoghurt and I was again a grinning 6 year old!
Master Z took his life in his hands and first took some of my Rashuns, dunked them in my yoghurt and advised that it was "not that great".
As you can imagine he was quickly informed to stay away from my crisps and to keep his (wrong) opinion to himself!
So what is everyone elses guilty pleasures? :)
