So good the pancakes were sparkling 🥞☕✨ I'm having my fourth coffee and thinking back to this leisurely (and decadent) Saturday brunch at @jakandhill - happy hump day 💛. . . . . . #backstreetbrisbane #brisbane #brisbanecity #brisbanecbd #brisbanefood #brisbanefoodie #brisbanebreakfast #brisbanebrunch #brisbaneeats #eatbrisbane #brisbanepancakes #springhill #brisbanecoffee #brisbanecafe #brisbaneweekend

This week has been a huge one since the very start, and that seems to be true for many people I've spoken to. We're shooting towards the middle of the year, there's so much on, and it's easy to feel like you're paddling wildly just to stay afloat. Today was a much-needed deep breath for me, spent wonderfully unproductively - we binge watched Chernobyl and I crocheted and drank coffee. The dog park near our house was having a party (!!) so you could hear excited barks and squeaky toys all afternoon. Now we're on our way to see dear friends for dinner. My heart is warmer and lighter after this day of purposefully doing very little. I hope your week has been kind to you, and if not, I hope you are being kind to yourself about it 💖. . . . . #backstreetbrisbane #brisbaneweekend #brisbane #brisbanecity #brisbanecbd #brisbaneblog #brisbaneblogger #brisbanelifestyle #brisbanesunset #viewsofbrisbane

This afternoon is your last chance to see @pannicproductions perform Green Day's AMERICAN IDIOT! My full review is on the blog now, but here's the short version - it's a polished, professional, 90-minute adrenaline shot full of impressive vocals, tight choreography, and fantastic performances 👏❤🤘🎸 . . . . . #backstreetbrisbane #brisbane #brisbanecity #brisbanecbd #brisbanetheatre #brisbanecommunitytheatre #brisbanearts #brisbanecreatives #briabaneartists #brisbanearts #qutgardenstheatre #pannicproductions #greenday #americanidiot #punkrockopera

Breakfast of (very tired) champions. This was seriously the best cafe muffin I've had for ages - they're so often dry and disappointing, but this orange and poppyseed one from @beanbrisbane was chewy, moist, and deliciously orangey. The coffee is always stellar there, too ❤☕. . . . . #backstreetbrisbane #brisbane #brisbanecity #brisbanecbd #brisbanecoffee #brisbanecafe #brisbanefood #brisbanefoodie #brisbanebreakfast #visitbrisbane #eatbrisbane

Green Day's American Idiot opens TONIGHT! 🤘🎸 The @pannicproductions cast very kindly made time to sit down with me between dress rehearsals (spoiler: they look and sound amazing) to chat about the show, their characters, and their favourite musical numbers - swipe to see more 👉👉 Full interviews are on the blog now - link in bio. American Idiot is playing at QUT Gardens Theatre from June 21-23. . . . . . . #backstreetbrisbane #brisbane #brisbanecity #brisbanecbd #brisbanetheatre #brisbanearts #brisbanecreatives #briabaneartists #brisbanearts #qutgardenstheatre #pannicproductions #greenday #americanidiot #punkrockopera

Last night's strawberry moon, suspended over the Kangaroo Point cliffs.

My partner said "look, it's you" and I appreciate the support from both him and @jakandhill ☕ Happy Monday, hope it was a good one 💕. . . . #backstreetbrisbane #brisbane #brisbanecity #brisbanecbd #brisbanecafe #brisbanecoffee #springhill #brisbanebreakfast #brisbanebrunch #eatbrisbane

You know when you recommend a restaurant, then you're worried you've exaggerated how good it was in your memory? @nostimorestaurant is exactly as good, if not better, than I remembered. I didn't take any photos last night so here's some from a while ago, similar to last night's beautiful dinner celebrating a family birthday. The service and atmosphere were genuinely warm and welcoming and we all had a wonderful evening ❤ we shared Vine Dolmathes, Politiki Salata, and the Leek & Potato filo pie, then the meat eaters also had lamb skaras and pork belly baklava, and we finished with flaky, custardy bougatsa and coffee 😍. . . . . . #backstreetbrisbane #brisbane #brisbanedining #brisbanegreek #brisbanerestaurant #nostimo #brisbanefood #brisbanefoodie #brisbaneblog #brisbaneblogger #brisbanelifestyle

My body woke me up early on a Saturday for no good reason, but I did get to see the beautiful fairy floss sunrise over Brisbane this morning ❤🧡💛. . . . #backstreetbrisbane #brisbane #brisbanecity #brisbanecbd #viewsofbrisbane #igersbrisbane #brisbanesunrise #brisbaneskyline

Have you visited the NASA - A Human Adventure exhibit at Queensland Museum yet? It is HUGE and hugely interesting so make sure you allow a few hours to read and look at everything 🚀🌟🌛. . It's here until October but if you're like us it takes several weeks to coordinate an outing so get onto it now 😂. . . . . #backstreetbrisbane #brisbane #brisbanecity #brisbanecbd #nasa #queenslandmuseum #brisbaneblog #brisbaneblogger #brisbanelifestyle #brisbaneevents

Opening night smiles 🥂 my full review of the @laboitetheatreco & @qutcreativeindust Romeo and Juliet is online now at @limelightmagazine ⚔❤ It's an engaging, pared-back production that maintains the key qualities of the work and showcases the considerable talent of Queensland’s next generation of theatre artists 👏👏 thanks for the happy snap @rdwphotography. . . . . . #backstreetbrisbane #LBRomeoandJuliet #laboite2019 #brisbanetheatre #brisbane #brisbanecity #kelvingrove #qut #brisbanereview #brisbaneblog #brisbaneblogger #brisbanelifestyle #brisbaneevents

"Sweet like a first kiss, sour like the taste of despair, sharp like a dagger" - an apt description for both this new La Boite production of Romeo and Juliet, and their delicious season-exclusive cocktail 'Archie Rose By Any Other Name' (including @archierosesyd vodka). My partner said Darcy Gooda was 'the best Juliet' he's ever seen and I have to agree (yes, we're including Claire Danes). It's a streamlined production with a few modern touches, bolstered by exceptional performances of its key characters. My full review will be online soon for @limelightmagazine ❤⚔🎉 Thanks for having us for opening night @laboitetheatreco 💕 . . . . . #backstreetbrisbane #LBRomeoandJuliet #laboite #laboite2019 #laboitetheatre #brisbanetheatre #brisbaneevents #romeoandjuliet #kelvingrove #brisbaneshow #brisbanereviews #brisbane #brisbaneblog #brisbaneblogger #brisbanelifestyle

It's the Mormons' last week in Brisbane and we're still singing along to the soundtrack around the house 😅 did you see Book of Mormon, or are you planning to see it when it returns in January?
