• I heart books. I positively devour them, drinking in the wonderful words between their pages. These days I go through two to three books in a week. Usually novels, but I’m branching out into non-fiction too! My local library lets you place all your holds online & then they send you an email when they’re ripe & ready to be picked up. I take my book bag with me when I walk there & come back laden with new ideas & inspiration.

• I finally made it to my post-box today! It was full of letters (though some of them weren’t for me) & the feeling I had as I carried them homeward was glorious!

• I love it when the bus is not too full & not too empty & I can get a seat. I like to look out the window daydreaming & watching the world go by. I like to take a sneak peak into other peoples’ cars as we drive past & sometimes I eavesdrop on fellow passengers talking. (admit it, you do it too!)

• Noodles! I have been a noodle fiend lately. There are so many ways to eat these things! In a clear soup; mixed up with bok choy & sesame seeds; sprinkled with soy sauce & wasabi; stir-fried with carrots, ginger & greens; with crispy tofu; served cold with spinach & chilli flakes - endless! Then there are the noodles themselves! Somen, udon, singapore, soba, hoikken, vermicelli….

• I love watching sunsets over the city. They’re really calming & remind me to slow down, stop stressing about the little things & not to waste time worrying. They’re also really pretty!

• The weather has been lovely. We are finally getting the cooler autumn days that I’ve been longing for. A cyclone off the coast meant that we had lots of rain too. It makes everything cool & green & I just want to curl up in bed with a good book & some hot chocolate.

   I love eavesdropping on my fellow customers’ conversations when I’m on public transport!
