losing streak.

I've been feeling a bit sad face these last few weeks. I'm normally very optimistic but I've been feeling a little bummed out for no good reason. So tonight I turned on my electric blanket, put on my Mickey Mouse jumper and reassured myself that I wouldn't be swallowed up by a whale.

drexels.

Drexel's is an American style breakfast restaurant in Christchurch. It is always must visit for our stomachs when we are in town! You are seated in tall, black leather booths, very American diner style. All meals are served with toast, whipped butter and jam, which is a delight in itself. The handmade hash browns are my absolute favourite, which they make daily from scratch. The service is also very pleasant. Just remember to book ahead as it's insanely popular on the weekends.

rainy long weekend.


It has been a pretty miserable day weather wise. This morning I attempted to tidy up my work space. Here are a few snaps of my desk & the view from my window.
