Happy Chinese New Year! We shared a curry at home to celebrate but if I lived in the city, I would've loved to have had a yum cha picnic or a yum cha high tea.
Speaking of the Lunar New Year, my brother-in-law found these incredible photos of Beijing completely deserted after people left the city to spend the holiday in their family's village.
A couple of weeks ago I shared my favourite Australian podcasts and just this week, Catherine let me know that Leigh Sales and Annabel Crabb have uploaded a sixth episode of their show Chat 10 Looks 3. It's such a funny episode and I so hope this means they're back for good in 2015.
I heard about a proposal at a Fifty Shades of Grey screening this week (?!), which naturally reminded me of my most favourite movie trailer proposal. One guy made this proposal preview for his Muppet obsessed girlfriend.
I finished my first book of 2015 the other day (it ended with a recipe!) and am about to begin Richard Flanagan's The Narrow Road to the Deep North. I would also like to read this cute looking graphic novel.
I really liked this post about how to archive your phone photos and make an end of year book. I'm guilty of keeping thousands of photos on my phone and photo books have always seemed daunting.
And finally, if you're thinking of doing some baking this weekend, you might like to check out Kate Berry's awesome Lunch Lady Vs The World series, where she picks a packet-mix cake or frozen snack and makes her own version from scratch. Inspiring stuff!
Today I'm heading to the coast for a mini-holiday with some friends to help celebrate a special little person's first birthday. I can't wait. Catch you next week.
