Mr in bed, the little Miss fed and finally sleeping and me with a cup of hot milo catching up on my pinning ...This morning's pinning inspiration - gorgeous gift wrapped packages.  Hopefully it will inspire me for this Xmas... speaking of Xmas, it may be time soon to put up the tree!

I am a bit obsessed this morning with these sunglasses that Kate Moss wore to the Stella McCartney Spring 2013 Ready-to -Wear collection.  I love the over sized cats eye shape.  I think I need a new pair of sunnies... Source: wwd.com via Phuong on Pinterest

Lucha Loca A laid back, buzzy new Mexican Taqueria at Duxton Hill which opened a few weeks ago serving up Mexican street food.  Lots of choice including awesome tortilla chips, yummy tacos, quesadillas, ceviche (which I really want to go back and try once I can eat raw food again) etc.  It's hard to find good Mexican so tasty food along with great service, a cool and buzzy atmosphere and (I am told) yummy margaritas - you really can't go wrong! Nassim Hill Bakery Bistro Bar We stopped by here yesterday for breakfast and we're glad we did.  An artisan bakery, the smell of beautiful hot bread greets you when you open the door and enter the airy space.  It wasn't too busy when we were there so quick friendly service and a wide selection of brunch choices.  Coffee not th...
