Organic Buyer's Group

Organic food is difficult to come by around where I live, and when I do, it often comes with a hefty price tag. Until I came across a little website, a small business that delivers organic food of all sorts to your door, at a lower price. I don't really remember how I found this gem, but discovering Organic Buyer's Group was the most thrilling event to happen to me in a while. If you live in Sydney, you're more than likely to be eligible for free shipping as well. Score. 

My purchase consisted of Loving Earth's Caramel Chocolate & Coconut Mylk Chocolate.

Alter Eco Pacific's Dark Chocolate & Dark Cacao Nibs 

The Carob Kitchen's Carob Almond Bar

And my personal favourite, Pukka's Peppermint & Licorice Tea. 

Yes, I did buy all chocolates. But I wanted to experiment! Don't judge me. 

Anyway, you do have to spend a minimum of $35 on all orders, but that just gives you an excuse to buy more goodies! Not to mention, my order came in only three days! I've tasted a little bit of each of the chocolates, and to be honest, it doesn't really compare to a Caramello Koala. Nonetheless, it curbs my occasional chocolate cravings and I'm hoping I will grow to LOVE it. If you do put through an order, please share what you purchased, or if you already shop here, let me know of your favourites.

Therapy

The search for the perfect ankle boot has been arduous ever since Topshop's Mighty Boot were no longer stocked. Alas, look no further, for Therapy has delivered with the next best thing that has indeed been quite therapeutic for me. Fidel has it all - style, height, leather and above all, comfort. The leather ages ever so gracefully, and it features a double zip - one just for decoration. Fashion. These have been the only shoes I've been wearing since I've gotten them. I am in love and have been eyeing the other colours...

Speaking of, unfortunately the black is sold out on the Iconic, where I shop because I get my Unidays discount. However they do still have the grey, (which I have been resisting) otherwise you can get black off of Styletread. Otherwise you can look into it's suede, more affordable sister, Tulum in black and brown. Now kick up your heels, these boots were made for walkin'!

Hurricane's

February seems to be the popular month for birthdays, as I find myself celebrating one every other day!
This time, instead of at-home-baking, we went out to Hurricane's for dinner and a stroll.

Straight from work, waitin' for a mate... 
(If you're Australian and do not understand this reference, please reevaluate your life.)

After waiting too long, everyone finally arrived and we ordered. 

I went for the Chicken Burger...
...which involved the brilliance of onions, pickles, sprouts, avocado, tomato and a generous chicken portion.
I had actually asked for baked potato instead of fries, but the waitress seemed to have forgotten that. I'm not really one to complain at restaurants, so obv I had to eat them.

And the rest of the guests shared ribs - beef and pork. We also ordered a Mediterranean salad to share. 
Apologies for the poor photo, but everyone was hungry.. including myself! Overall, Hurricane's was good. The staff are friendly, my food was average- but everybody else says you HAVE to get the racks. I'm not really one for rib-racks, so I can't comment personally, but all the tables around us had also ordered racks so I guess there's that for you.

We then went for a night stroll around Darling Harbour, which was still love-crazy for Valentine's Day. I think they left it up because they knew we were coming! After some Instagramming, more photos, and Lindt Cafe glory, it was time to call it a night. And a massive Happy Birthday to my love.
