Ten things we’re loving right now.
[Nathan's 5] -
1. This Girl.
Truth is, I couldn’t live without Kitty. She is my everything, and my all, and I wake up each day just to look into her gorgeous eyes, and realise that I am so blessed beyond words. I dedicated my life to her, and I’m the happiest boy alive for even being able to do so. <3
2. A List Apart.
A List Apart is a really fantastic site about web design and development. I probably enjoy it where a lot of people won’t, but I just find the articles really inspiring, and really well written. They select two articles by hand each week to publish, discarding hundreds of other quality articles written by both famous and no-name designers. Every article is accompanied by brilliant illustrations by famed designer Kevin Cornell, which add to the fun and interestingness that is ALA.
3. Gomez.
What better a way to enjoy an evening with an amazing fiancée, then to sit back, relax, and unwind to some cool tunes? Gomez are the awesome creators of our cool tunes of choice, and I particularly recommend ‘How We Operate’, ‘See The World’, and ‘Hangover’, among bunches of other great songs! If you want to give them a spin, try checking out their page over at last.fm, or their website.
4. Pasta!
Oh gosh, I’m making myself hungry mentioning this, but boy does it ever deserve a mention! The best, most simple, cheapest way to make a wholesome, filling lunch or supper, this is the way we get our bellies full. Holy great big bowls of pasta, Batman!
5. Top Gear.
I feel like such a typical bloke mentioning half the stuff I have, but be damned if I can help myself! Both Kitty and I have a massive liking of Top Gear right about now, especially now Season 11 is out! I admit that if I have to give some decent reasoning to this decision, there is some: the camera work on the show is simply phenomenal. They can turn any car into a monster on the show, and that’s probably why I love it! Check out the top gear website for some more information.

1. This Man.
This man will always be on my list, no matter where I go or what else I’m loving at the moment. He’s just so perfect for me and I love him with all my heart. So this man is what I’m most loving right now and he’s the man I’ll be most loving forever. <3
2. The Beach.
We’re loving the beach.. not that we’ve been… yet! And yes, we are planning to hit the white sandy shores of Australia very soon indeed. The weather is just so spectacular at the moment, how can we not plan it? The idea of a beach day highly excites me as if I’m 5 all over again. We particularly are fond of this photo too by Frederic Beaulieu .
3. Weet-bix!
Weet-bix! It’s our morning ritual. After waking up and fighting the cold to get out from under the covers, we scuttle into the kitchen and grab our two favourite bowls. We throw 5 weet-bix in each with milk and shove them in the microwave before smothering them with brown sugar. Today, Nathan said, “There’s more sugar than weet-bix” which made me smile. We always eat them on the bench out the back in the warm Sun and just wake up slowly.
4. Picnics!
Picnics such as this one. I decided to go and set up a picnic up in the woods for Nathan one day and we turned it into a formal event and both wore our smartest clothes. It was heaps of fun, and I even nicked the wind chimes from the garden to hang on a tree! I may or may not be planning another one some time. Watch this space.
5. Vintage Prints.
I don’t know what it is that attracts me so much to collage art which has such a unique vintage look, but something about it just makes me turn my head. If I had all the wall-space in the World, it would be covered with vintage frames with collage art in, some of my own, some from elsewhere. I particularly like these two heart prints from here.
