FRIYAY: Honey, Honey

November 3, 2017

Raise your hand if Friday arvo is your favourite time of the week! I have to be honest – I forgot how good Fridays were while at university, because everyday felt like Friday. But now that I’m working full-time in advertising, I have a new found appreciation for the end of the working week.

However, while I’m filled with exhilaration on the commute home,  I’m always torn between my Friday night options. Do Kyal and I head out to the drive-in and gorge on warm, jam donuts? Do we head into town to enjoy a sneaky drink or two? Or do we stay at home in our tracky-dacks, eating leftovers and watching Riverdale? It’s a tricky decision, but the ‘Stay at Home’ option usually wins, and I love it. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with lowkey lovin’ a night in.

Being a self-proclaimed homebody, I love to treat myself during my Friday night R&R’s. So for each month, I am going to have a theme (and a budget of course) to turn my Friday into Friyay. To kick off this series, I’m starting with Honey, Honey. Y’know, cause it’s the last month of spring, and in spring the bees are about, and bees make deliciously gooey honey. Anyway, we’ll just get started!

Soothing Dry Winter Skin

Admittedly I’ve had a great run with my skin. Because it’s naturally dry, I hardly ever have break outs. On the odd occasion I do, it’ll be one or two tiny pimples with a narrow sea of red surrounding them. While living in warm and sunny Perth, my dry skin was ridiculously low maintenance. But since moving to Melbourne’s chillier climate, it’s copped a beating. I’m talking dry, flakey texture, clutters of pimples and red blotches that spread across my cheeks and chin to make it look like some kind of alternative beard. Safe to say, it’s been a nightmare.

Hey there!

I’m Justine and I’m fuelled by a good cuppa, dark chocolate and soul-stirring books.
I’m a planaholic, dawdling writer, goal-getter and self-confessed homebody based in Melbourne.
I live for FRIYAY evenings chilling on the couch in a baggy tee and yoga pants.

Chasin’ dreams since 1995.
