Botanicals Notebook Collection
Stationery shopping excites me. Especially when you get stuff as pretty as this.
Rifle Paper Co.'s Botanicals Notebook Collection showed me floral CAN look good on stationery.
It comes in a pack of three; baby pink, light blue & red. It's so not something I would usually buy, but it's one of my favourite stationery purchases I've ever made (and trust me, I've made a lot.) The paper is also crisp white which I adore, and the details are so cute. Rifle Paper Co. definitely know what they're doing.

Grill'd
Coming home to Australia is always kind of bummy because we just don't do restaurants like other countries. Nonetheless, one that wasn't too far off is a burger place called Grill'd.
I've heard SO many people talk about this place, but because I'm not one to eat out too often, I'd never really tried it out. Until now.
Drinks!
Shirley wirley being all curly.
We got the sliders. Pat ordered ones with wasabi & just a normal cheeseburger. It was really good! Burgers are always good.
Burger time. I can't remember which was Pat's and which was Shirley's...
I ordered the pomegranate salad. I wasn't feeling the burgers in the moment (shock horror!) and the pomegranate seeds, quinoa & goat's cheese just really spoke to me. It was delicious, but something I could make at home, let's be honest.
Grill'd was good. It's nothing fancy - but a good place to eat out if you're just looking to take a break from cooking and want a solid, fool-proof choice of restaurant.

Bible Study
I am a follower of Jesus.
But I had always put off reading the Bible because I had a King James version & would get lost halfway through the verse, and be so confused as to what was going on.
A few weeks ago I decided to put my foot down & finally purchase a new Bible & a new book, to document.
For my notebook, I went with Moleskine's Large Notebook in Khaki. I've heard they're incredibly good quality & since I want to keep this notebook with me, well forever, I decided I'd stick with the safe. What I like about this notebook in particular however, is that it's soft cover. I don't know why, but that appeals to me more so than the regular black hardcovers. One thing to note about Moleskine that I didn't know is that they use ivory paper, not white. I kind of didn't like that at first, but I'm coming around to it.
For my Bible, I chose the English Standard Version as my choice & I am so glad that I did. It's leatherbound & the font is really easy to read. More importantly, I actually UNDERSTAND it. If you're a fellow follower of Jesus and looking to purchase a new Bible, I used this website that compares a few verses in different translations to see which is best suited for you.
Please note, I'm not looking to preach or impose on anyone's beliefs, just simply sharing the love. You can focus on the Moleskine part of this post solely, if you'd like. It is a pretty cool notebook!
