soy diet

Today is the start of my soy diet! I'm not going to be consuming any dairy, seeing as I'll be replacing it with soy alternatives. I've already tried soy yogurt (which actually isn't as bad as you'd think) and I pretty much grew up on soy milk, so it's not going to be too hard. I'm going to include a lot of lentils and beans into my meals, as well as a lot of green vegetables and rye bread.

I'm going out to dinner tonight, to the coffee-shop-during-the-day-Japanese-restaurant-at-night place called Yama :) it's in Edge Hill at, coincidentally, The Edge. I really hope they make some good sashimi! Plus, I get to wear my new dress, which is nice.

It feels like I haven't posted a video in a while, so here:



I've been reliving my awesome childhood for the past 3 days, it's great (L).

my lazy Monday

I woke up at the unusually late time of 10:45am precisely, which is really odd seeing as my body clock is usually set to 7am. Anyway, mumma bear wanted to check out the renovated library in Brinsmead and hit a couple of op shops, so we set off. I hired out The Chasers season 1, two Xavier Rudd cds, Paramore's "The Final Riot", Angus and Julia Stone's "A Book Like This", a book about knitting with natural wools, and a tonne of cooking books. I'd really like to be that friend who is always cooking and never lets her friends get hungry. I think that's the sort of person I'd like to be. But yes, soon I will be the culinary master of sushimi, soy, salads, smoothies and soups! And I'll throw a dinner party and invite some lovely people around.

We went to St. Vinnies after that, and I found THE most awesome chopping board ever. It should make me sad that I've started my collecting of household items so soon, but I couldn't care less with this addition:



70's BLISS!

I didn't find any clothes at that op shop, nor the one in Brinsmead Shopping Center, so we came home, I cooked up some lunch, made some tea and watched Chasers. And Good News Week is on tonight, so I'm in a faily content mood.

I hope you had a lovely day as well xx.
