LEARNING THAT GROWTH CAN BE A DANCE

FROM THEN TO NOW
Life is a journey - I think we all know that, and I hope we're all
progressing in a forward direction (even if it's two steps forward and one
step back at times). I've shared quite a lot about my life journey here on
the blog and last year I spent several months working my way through the
trauma of my awful job imploding on me, my subsequent resignation, and the
journey to finding myself again.
One thing I realized the other day is that we shouldn't expect ourselves to completely recover from a major
trauma overnight. It can take months or years before we feel like it's
finally behind us - we think we've moved on, but then we encounter something (or someone) and we're reminded that it's a process and not a done deal.
SUPER EASY 2 EGG PAVLOVA

INTRO
Last month I began my super easy recipe sharing with lemon/orange drizzle muffins. I'd been wanting to bake some for a while and when I mentioned it here on the blog, others asked me to share my recipe. I'm a very basic "chef" so it was safe to give my friend's recipe away - guaranteed no-fail - because if I can make it, then anyone can!
Today I have my favourite super easy Christmas dessert to pass on to anyone who's interested in trying their hand at a classic Aussie favourite.
CRESTING THE HILL AND ENJOYING THE VIEW

CLIMBING THE HILL
A few weeks ago, some blogging friends and I were discussing hiking and how
you approach those difficult hill climbs. My friend Jo from
And Anyways commented
that the secret is to tackle the climb with a positive attitude because you
know it's going to be hard, but it will be even harder if you're complaining
and miserable every step of the way. Her example was pushing through a
challenging section by singing "Paradise By The Dashboard Light" (a great Meatloaf flashback there for those of us who loved "Bat Out Of Hell" in the 70's - and that darn song was stuck in my head for weeks after she
mentioned it!) with a fellow hiker and being able to laugh about it later
when they'd conquered that section.
Her story reminded me of a quote that I often think about when I look at
our journey through life:
