A trip to The Mountains!

Ah, it's that time of the year again, when us girls head away to The Mountains for the weekend.  Crisp days, blue skies, sleep-ins, lamb shanks, fluffy mash, homemade sticky toffee pud with cream AND icecream (very naughty!), open fireplace (thank goodness for Jiffy's firelighters ha?!), red wine, browsing the shops and bookstores, gluwein and Whisk & Pin Cafe in Medlow Bath for a very late brunch (2pm) after a luscious, long sleep in!  It's Heaven and I can't wait! :)


My gorgeous friend Nads and I have been going to a friend's little timber cottage in the woods every Winter for about 5 or 6 years now - each year, we pick a different friend to come along for the ride.  This year, Sophie (who is visiting from London) is the very lucky nominee!  So, get in quick if you want to be first on the list for next year :)  I think you'll be hard pressed beating my little sis to it... !


It's welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the city, work and the hectic nature of Sydney life in general.  Here's some pics from our adventure last year, with the beautiful Adge...

The gorgeous little Chapel down the road...

Whisk & Pin Cafe - divine!

So, it's off to The Blue Mountains for us 3 ladies this weekend - only 3 more sleeps to go! :)

I hope your weekend is just as beautiful, whatever it is that you're getting up to... Enjoy!

Love,
Miss Manly x
