Well, I've been a Very Bad Blogger lately. I hate to be that blogger who always whines about how bad they are at staying on top of things, but well, yeah, that's been me lately. I'm especially sorry to those who read my blog for tasty recipes and have found nada here lately. I've been getting ready for this big overseas adventure of mine.
Which brings me to the point of this post - this time in a week I'll be in Mexico City! I was going to line up a whole bunch of guest bloggers for while I was away but didn't even have time to do the whole proofing-scheduling business, so this post is going to sit up here for a while. I'll be back to it at the start of December, hopefully with some exciting stories to tell and recipes to share.
In the meantime, this is what I'll be up to.
First:

And then:

| Intrepid Travel |
And then I idotically volunteered to make a wedding cake on my way back home, so I'm stopping in Perth on my way through to Melbourne to do that. Oh, and I recently wrote a guest post for Kelley that explained why the humble choko is the knobbly green symbol of my over-commitment. This is a very choko moment. And, frankly, reading back over that post, I'm more than a little horrified at how rambly I can be. Sheesh!
So anyway, basically what I'm saying is I'm doing this:
Enjoy the next few months, people, and please don't wander far! (Also wish me luck in this holiday not ending like my last big one)
PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEMBERLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI want to go to there.
That is all. Well. Besides "have a great trip!" obviously ;)
Been to both now! And I had a wonderful trip :)
DeleteYour holiday definitely won't end like your last big trek!
ReplyDeleteI hope it's more like the Thai trip - fun, relaxing, interesting, and full of great people ;-)
Enjoy your journey!!!!!!!
The good news is, it was more like the Thai trip, only probably hotter!!! I had an absolutely brillian time with only negligible health concerns and no charter aircraft that I didn't deliberately take for sightseeing purposes ;)
DeleteWhat an adventure! Have a fantastic time and rest assured, I am crossing my fingers that you get to Pemberley and any other P&P landmarks you might wish to visit. That would be amazing!
ReplyDeleteI did! Unfortunately what I consider to be the true Pemberley (the BBC version - Lyme House) was closed to the public, but the gardener let me in for a few minutes to take some photos. If he hadn't let me in I probably would have cried...
DeleteWOW! That is awesome! We'll be waiting for you and the pics you take! :) Have fun!
ReplyDeleteI had such a fabulous time! I'll post the pics bit by bit as I tell you all about my trip - probably all in one hit would be far too mcuh in one go. I started to go through them today on a bigger screen and there are plenty I can delete but also some really good ones :)
DeleteOmygosh I'm so jealous! That sounds like such an amazing time!! I hope you have a fantastic trip! :)
ReplyDeleteIt was great :) And you know, I thought it would cure my "travel bug" for a while, but all it's done is given me a greater thirst for travel. D'oh!
DeleteWow, what a fantastic trip! I can't wait to read all about it :D Safe travels Vanessa!! :D
ReplyDeleteI'm back, safe and sound! Looking forward to catching up on all my blog reading :)
Deleteyou are literally going around the world! that sounds like an amazing trip. safe travels and have a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteI'm back, finally! Feeling totally recharged and full of life. And provided my laptop doesn't run out of batteries or crash on me I'll have my first travel post out tonight.
DeleteHi there 6'2" dangerous baker, just checking out your site - looks ace! We met in NYC with a friend of mine and yours at the wonderful BEER AUTHORITY. lots of fun, sounds like your trip went well?! Phil
ReplyDeleteHey Phil, great hearing from you and I'm really glad you stopped by! The trip was fantastic (Beer Authority being amongst the highlights, of course!) and the nine weeks went far too quickly. Stay tuned for some stories about my trip, and if you're ever in need of a couch to sleep on in Australia (or even if you just want to say hi) then drop me an email some time at vanessalillian [at] gmail [dot] com :)
