This weekend we went down to Melbourne for a quick 24hrs (almost literally, our parking docket at the airport went from 13:53 on Dec 3 to 13:56 on Dec 4) where Mister B's cousin was hosting his annual Christmas Party.
First stop was for some sweetness and warmth on Little Collins (Melbourne weather was typically unpredictable and straight after a cuppa we went shopping for a coat) Dropping in at the Laurent has become somewhat of a tradition for us now, remember when we visited back here last year?
So much fabulosity!
The party itself was loads of fun, and the apartment was perfect. Mind you, I could only enjoy the beautiful view from the balcony in brave bursts as the wind out there was freezink! It's December people.
Ahem, we may have been a few hours in when this photo was taken :)
Isn't dessert ALWAYS the best part of the night!
Walking down Little Collins...
...where we found time for one more stop at our favourite patisserie before flying back.
Naturally I found a few moments to grab another ornament for the tree...
...let no bough go unburdened is the new expression I have coined for my addiction.
So our first Christmas party for the year and the season is off to a flying start. The pun is shameless. I know. Hope you've all had a good weekend, now am off to have dinner and settle in with the three new mags I bought today.
I shall report back with any need-to -knows!

Love it. No decoration, er, I mean man, gets left behind.
ReplyDeleteI am stealing that ornament motto - you can never have too many. Glad you had a good getaway!
ReplyDeleteWell it didn't ruin our fun Melissah so all's well that ends well :)

If I knew a swanky do was all it would take to get you to flash into town I'd have been licking the invitations into their envelopes before you could have said "We 3 Kings of Orient Are". (Locking that one in for future reference.)
ReplyDeleteAlso adding my apologies to Melissah's for our dismal weather effort, but hope it helped make you feel more Christmassy!! :)

In this manner my acquaintance Wesley Virgin's adventure launches in this shocking and controversial video.
ReplyDeleteWesley was in the military-and soon after leaving-he revealed hidden, "MIND CONTROL" tactics that the CIA and others used to get everything they want.
THESE are the exact same methods lots of famous people (especially those who "come out of nothing") and the greatest business people used to become rich and successful.
You probably know that you use only 10% of your brain.
That's mostly because the majority of your BRAINPOWER is UNTAPPED.
Maybe that conversation has even occurred IN YOUR very own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head about seven years back, while riding an unregistered, beat-up bucket of a car with a suspended license and $3 on his banking card.
"I'm absolutely frustrated with going through life paycheck to paycheck! When will I finally succeed?"
You took part in those conversations, right?
Your very own success story is waiting to happen. All you have to do is in YOURSELF.
