Still clearly obsessed with new current favourite Artwine lets check out the other bottle I bought on my recent visit to their Adelaide Hills cellar door.

Just look at that beautifully balanced date (I'm a bit weird like that, I love dates that are balanced in some way of another). Let us celebrate with a bottle of wine and a great book. Just because. Today's wine is brought to you by a favourite South Australian winery, Bird in Hand. Looking for a … Continue reading Wine & Words Wednesday 17/05/17

Wine & Words Wednesday has arrived and not a moment too soon! This week is has an important accompaniment: cheese. All the cheese and for good reason, I promise (I mean, is cheese ever a bad idea? I think not). This Wednesday's wine of the week comes from McLaren Vale favourite Coriole Vineyards. Coriole is located … Continue reading Wine & Words Wednesday 03/05/17

Easter has just ended for another year. A weekend of family, friend, drinks and too much food. Time for a detox? Definitely not. Another Wednesday, another bottle of wine. This week embarrassingly enough I have already drained the bottle I wanted to discuss. Proof that it is a great drop? Most definitely. What wine am … Continue reading Wine & Words Wednesday 19/04/17

Wine Wednesday is here again, lets do a little happy dance and proceed to cracking a bottle. What am I cracking today? Well, a pretty special bottle in my opinion. Hahndorf Hill Winery is a boutique winery just outside the historic town of Hahndorf in the Adelaide Hills. This is a beautiful winery that uses sustainable practices … Continue reading Wine & Words Wednesday 22/03/17

| This would be heaven right now. A long stretch of time with a coffee and Black Leopard, Red Wolf. Instead I’m snatching chapters where I can, reluctant to put it down. I’m about a third of the way through and enjoying the adventure, the tone, everything. Sadly the busy week is marching on into a busy weekend away and I’ll think lovingly of my books from a distance. Anyone else feeling the pull of too many commitments? Sigh. |
| After a rather busy weekend with minimal reading time I’ve jumped into a rather busy week with, once again, minimal opportunity for reading. Sneaking in a few extra pages of Axiomatic tonight. Such a compelling read that I find my mind drifting back to it constantly. |
| Secret Book Stuff Book Club | Friday got even better when I came home from work to my first @secretbookstuff Book Club. Every month the amazing Laura & Amy handpick a secret book and send it off with a handwritten note. I was excited to see what they picked out for me and was pleased to find a book that checks a few of my favourite boxes (written by an Australian women, feminist and fun). Hitting it out of the park once again, swipe across to see what I got. If your interested in a book subscription that it all about the book and none of the frills definitely check them out! There are several levels to choose from depending on how general or specific you want your selections to be.
| Happy Valentines Day! I had the best time leaving these amazing #prhblinddatewithabook around Adelaide today thanks to @penguinbooksaus & @booksontherail. Hopefully they made some commuter’s days a little extra shiny and bright. 💕 |
| This weeks lunchtime reads brought to you by Pat Barker. The Silence of the Girls is a retelling of the Iliad. I’m a few chapters in and looking forward to seeing where it goes. I read so many excellent retellings last year I’m intrigued to see how this one holds up. |
| Getting excited to spread the bookish love on Valentine’s Day in two days. Any excuse to share a blind date with a book with the unsuspecting public. 💕 This is the kind of V-Day celebration I can get behind. |
