As you may know, I’ve been doing Project Life this year, taking a picture (mostly) and recording what I do/how I’m feeling/what’s going on everyday for a whole year. One of my friends recently suggested that I turn it into a blog, so maybe I’ll upload some of the daily pictures occassionally. I don’t want PL to feel like a chore, so I’m not committing to uploading everything, but maybe I’ll put some up as I go. So here are some May photos.
May 2, breakfast at Farmer’s Daughter
May 4, loving Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries
May 6, enjoying the “country lifestyle” at the Colletor village pumpkin festival
May 11, Sydney by night
May 13, brunch at Berkelouw Books

I’m going through a macaron stage. Ok, to be honest, I’ve been going through it for a while, and now that I have a mixmaster I can make them until my heart’s content! But I’ve taken to photographing the macarons that I buy, and finally found a mini album to house these pictures. So out comes Photoshop Elements and here are the photos:
Pretty pages from my time in France.
1. “Fairytale” – The back of Notre Dame in Paris.

4. “Wonder” – First sight of the Eiffel Tower up close
5. “Wallpaper” – Unfinished page about the wallpaper at Versailles.
6. “French Sweets” – A selection of the yummy sweets I ate in France! Definitely a favourite page!
