So, I won this from Mrs Woog with the most inane comment ever:
And I’m, to use the words of Justin Norris, stoked. (Bogan, hey? Yeah, takes one to know one :p)
I don’t use the stylus much, but I love the purrrty screen, and it’s so android and awesome.
And yes, its big, but I carry bags, so I so don’t care. :)
And I’ve been letting people choose their own ringtones… Whatcha reckon for Rish? ;)
I’m still in love with Shirley.

Mum picked this up and she made it for me when I was staying with her a few weeks ago. We may or may not have eaten 2/3 of the loaf with olive oil and balsamic vinegar instead of having dinner. Maybe.

Kidnapped my sleep deprived sister (and aspiring food blogger? ??) on ANZAC day for a caffeine hit on Beumont street, Hamilton.
Unfortunately, the gluten free cinnamon toast took aaages to come, and could have done with more butter. But it was great to get out!

Caught up with friends for breakfast/lunch/something after waaaay to long (hey they’d been to Korea and the US in meantime!) at Cafe Newtown near the train station.
I had a delish fruit salad, and a coffee of course.
My friends split olive tapende toast with feta and a burger.
So many cafes in Newtown, so little time!

Are you, like me, the possessor of one, or more, KeepCups or other brand of reusable coffee cup? Yes?
Well, I was at an event for Kleeex the other week, and pledged on camera to use my KeepCup more often. So here we go. On the drive to Sydney from Newcastle, getting my soy latte is an attractive cup.
Step at a time!
(Hey, Mum! You can even get a Sydney Swans one!)
And, cute pics of me from the Kleenex event!
PS congrats to Jess who won the necklace!

I was given a voucher to use a Groupon.com.au which I used to purchase a voucher to Barramundi Bar and Grill, which I have passed onto friends who have promised me food porn!
We all love the daily deal sites, right?
Groupon sent me a voucher code to use on their site to check out how easily I could spend money there. (While saving it, of course!) $49 for $138 in value? Hard to say no if you come across the right deal!
Just head over to Groupon and come back and let me know what you’d spend the voucher on (or alternatively what you wouldn’t!!). There’s meals, kitchenware, beauty deals, or of course you might wanna put it towards one of the travel deals!

Room 507
My second stay at Ibis Little Bourke, this basic, but adequate, hotel, located ultra close to Southern Cross Station and within walking distance of all the best conference venues ;) (read about my first stay here)
I managed not to injure myself in the shower this time. The air con was quieter, and the towels better. I did pay more ($103 per night, this time through wotif, last time was through Qantas, but it WAS school holidays and a weekend this time).
They have a luggage storage area which we used, but don’t leave valuable there, because I kinda just walked in to get my bag and could have left with anything. You can pay for a locker there, or at the station, if you need. I just carried my zenbook around for the day ;)
Loved the 11am checkout, and our room was available before lunch on the day we got there :) I’m sure I’ll stay there again!

I received half a dozen of these little bottles as part of Product Talk by Nuffnang, I have not received payment for this post
DO NOT take how oily my hair looks in this photo as evidence of the use of this oil. I just haven’t washed my hair in close to a week. Because I’m slack like that at the moment.
So, I got half a dozen of these little bottles of Dove Nutri Oil Serum to play with and review. Threw one the way of my flatmate, who had only positive things to say, so positive she was lacking words when I asked for her opinion:
As far as I was concerned, I loved the smell, and it did reduce the frizz levels on my frizzy hair (think I used it two days post wash). And it was a great excuse to have Rish brush my hair :) *spoilt*
Do you use products like this on your hair? I have to admit to being super lazy, but you know, if it’s sitting there, it may well get used!

Place the following in a casserole dish in a slow (about 160) over for a couple of hours, or for the day in the slow cooker:
4 lamb shanks
two tins chopped tomatoes
tin chick peas
tbs moroccan spices
tsp garlic (or so!)
Serve on polenta and baby spinach leaves. Nom.

So.
I own the domain RishniRatnam.com, and I host my bother in law at http://www.johndee.net.au/….
But of most interest to most of you…..
I now have my sister blogging. At http://gatheringpieces.littlelioness.net/
Visit her.
Tell her she is awesome. Cos she is.
Because I want there to be a place for parents with kids with Spondylmetaphyseal Dysplasia to find each other. Even if just to look at each other and realise that there are other who have no idea how this will all turn out for them.
For a community.
For Jennie. And John. And Liam. And Ezri.
And the rest.

According to some stats I have found in various places:
- I have 340 Facebook friends
- 104 people littlelioness.net on Facebook
- 130 readers via feedburner
and countless stalkers hiding in the bushes.
This blog is turning TEN in September and I’m turning THIRTY in July.
And I really don’t need more of the things.
So, I’m asking that each of you who can makes a small contribution to my fundraising page for the Steve Waugh Foundation. No matter how big or how small the donation, or retweet/reblog if you can’t help financially, it all helps!
I have an ambitious aim for $1000, but if you each don;t spend $5 on a card for me, or $30 for a bottle of wine, we’re well on our way to supporting kids with “orphan” conditions, that don’t seem to fall under the magical funding categories.
Thanks in advance. I’ll love you FOREVER! xx
