Just Call me Aurora…
Describe your most ideal day from beginning to end. From the outset I’ve just got to say I have many versions of what an ideal day entails. However for today, I’ll pluck my response from the top of my all-time favourite bucklist items. Therefore my ideal day would cast me as an intrepid traveller, he’ll-bent…

A twisted, gnarlry and knotted tree.
How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life? Life is like an ocean, sometimes gentle and calm waters prevail. Whilst other times it’s like a wild frenzied storm unleashes itself, stirring up tumultuous tides. The only constant denominator in my life, is me, so therefore I need the…

Sigh…
Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done. I get the mountains of washing done, and enjoying hanging it out to dry. Yet, I struggle with putting it away immediately. It just sits and stares at me till I have had enough and feel compelled to pack it away. Sad but true.

Depends on time limitations and who I’m cooking for.
What’s your favorite thing to cook? I actually love to cook. In fact cooking for others is one of the ways I show my love and gratitude towards them. I love making sushi, baking gluten-free seeded breads and creating many varied dishes. I make home made pizzas from scratch, creating gluten-free dough. My kids love…

In short…
What are your favorite sports to watch and play? In short I’m not really into watching sport, albeit for an exciting last few overs of cricket (if it’s been a particularly close match and down to a few balls). I don’t mind watching football (soccer) deciders during the World cup, but have to look away…

This is important as I’d want to make sure my daughter with disabilities is catered for, and protective measures put in place. As well…

I’ve already answered a similar prompt.
What books do you want to read? My previous response still remains, and that is I am most looking forward to reading my completed manuscript. Moreover, I’m most looking forward to seeing it in published form. I can visualise holding it in my hands, feeling the textural elements, smelling the freshly printed pages as I…

A change for the better – Jan 26th – A date not to be celebrated.
Write about a few of your favorite family traditions. One tradition is that we don’t celebrate Australia Day (Jan 26th) as it truly is in poor taste. It fails to acknowledge that today’s date actually marks #InvasionDay and a #DayOfMourning for First Nations peoples in Australia. It marks the beginning of British colonisation and the…

Interesting
What do you enjoy doing most in your leisure time? I find it interesting that the words ‘leisure time’ aren’t widely used here (In Australia) . In fact, not once have I referred to my ‘free time’ or ‘spare time’ as being ‘leisure time’. I’m more inclined to use the word leisure, as ‘I went…

A bridge too far.
Name an attraction or town close to home that you still haven’t got around to visiting. As a Sydneysider I have never actually climbed the Sydney Harbour Bridge. I don’t see it as a tourist attraction, but rather a vital part of Sydney’s infrastructure, especially given I live in Sydney’s northern suburbs.i still marvel in…
