geek parenting done right
March has positively flown by with a flurry of water and a buttload of stress. TBH I haven’t been updating anything here lately, because I feel like I’ve lost my mojo a little. While I blog about life, the universe and everything in between, my universe has filtered down to three people – M, Bear […]
Note: product sent to me free of charge in exchange for an honest review We’ve been making porridge for Bear ever since he started solids, and the recipe has always involved a truly ridiculous amount of home made apple puree. Unfortunately some weeks just get away from me, and peeling and chopping apples is the […]
It’s not that easy being green, having to spend each day the color of the leaves When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold or something much more colorful like that Just like it’s not easy being green in a world of blue, it’s not easy being a girl geek. […]
What’s It About? In 2029, an aging Wolverine cares for an ailing Professor X while hiding out on the Mexican border. But Logan’s attempts to hide from the world are ended when a young mutant finds herself on his doorstep while being pursued by dark forces. Which X-Men Movies Should I Have Watched First? […]

Bear’s seizures have begun again so we are firmly back into the doctors and hospitals and tests and waiting and scariness. It has brought me back to the reason I started doing these posts […]
It’s almost Oscar time! So regulars to the blog will know I’m a Michael Bolton level cinephile, so it probably doesn’t come as a surprise that I have my own little Oscars party every year. I love watching all the major nominees and figuring out what my favourites are, even though they almost never win. […]
I am definitely a cat person, so imagine my surprise when people told me cats and babies don’t get along. My pregnancy felt like a continual refrain of people telling me all the reasons why babies mean the cat has to go. I must have heard that Aristotle von Pussenhausen (he’s fancy) would have to […]
Living in Queensland iced lattes are an absolute must in the summer time. However, they do tend to add up when you are buying this deliciousness every day. I’ve tried and tried to master them at home, but they’re too weak or they have a bitter aftertaste from being cooled too quickly. Enter DIY cold […]
