Thursday's Tales, a cold and a Caramel Machiato

Well today has been a busy one both the little ones have a cold, Max is coughing up a storm but instead of lying down wants to be outside waxing the car with his dad and riding his bike, he asked to have his trainer wheels taken off his bike today but didn't understand he was probably not going to ride it properly without falling over a few times, needless to say he asked his dad why he kept on falling, so daddy was outside answering a 101 questions as to why?
Our cat has just noticed there is even more action going on in the fishtank and keeps trying to take one of the fish out, thankfully he is still kind of lame and hasn't succeeded yet? Now doesn't he look so innocent in these photos with Alicia,
my gosh she thinks he is her baby talk about pampered puss.... And speaking of our cat Keiko hubby spotted this playing on a tv at the petshop this morning and wants to get our cat one http://www.litterkwitter.com.au/en/index.php
Okay so the closest Starbucks to me is about a 20 minute drive which is no problem but I have issues with the shopping centre because it's just so massive, always packed with people  I think I have gone there once since I have been back in Brissy.
Now I really can't stand packed shopping centres so my cravings for a Starbucks Caramel machiato haven't been indulged so the one day that I can bear going there and what do I get a coffee that tastes burnt gosh don't you just hate the taste so not fair, yes I could of complained but I guess somedays you just make a bad coffee lol.....
`
But I made myself feel better I got some little vintage ribbons and some little vials of german glitter glass from Fated Follies http://www.etsy.com/shop/fatedfollies I just fell in love with the little vials ever so cute, so go and have a peek lots of pretty german glitter glass in lots of colours with fab prices and the shipping isn't that expensive either.....
