Firstly…hello.
A very happy Easter to you. If you are still there.
This is my clumsy attempt to reconnect with you…I’ve had the best of blogging intentions but no follow-through.
I’d like to be able to keep blaming my radio life (Mix 101.1, 6 am weekdays with the glorious Chrissie Swan) but the truth is I am just lazy and lax and human.
I’ve had three sleep-ins in a row and it’s all coming back to me…with any luck, more inventive posts are just around the corner!
Until then, here’s Easter Sunday at Casa Salvation.

Penelope Laura Aster Colosimo Hall.
How can one six month old “Australian Mist” kitten cause so much havoc?
I know it looks as though I’m making excuses for my pathetic lack of blog posts…and, well, I guess I am.
Sigh. I made a pact with myself that I would never again attend to the toileting requirements of another being.The relentless badgering from the nine year old wore me down. She broke me. I drove to Bunyip. I spent the council rates money on Penelope.
Meow.

…This kid.
His name is Kit.
He looks tough, but don’t be fooled…

…he’s a softie with a heart of gold and extremely good taste in bed linen. Not to mention a fabulous Mum.

If that isn’t enough to make you visit my shop, then I don’t know what is. Have a look at those baby blues…certainly not a face to be wasted on radio…

…not like these three.

Monday. 6am. Mix101.1.

Hi everyone! My sincere apologies for disappearing off the face of the earth. As those of you in Victoria may have heard, I got a new job!! Life has gone from this

to this

and I need to be three different people to get everything done!
Yes, it’s time for some breakfast radio, folks. Anyone fancy waking up to the dulcet tones of Salvation Jane? One of my acting mates once told me my voice could cut glass, and he did not mean that in a good way. Seems Mix101.1 disagrees. Tune in on Monday morning at 6 am and see what you reckon.Chrissie, Jamie and I will be waiting to take your calls! You can read all about it here.

In Salvation Jane Home world, its full steam ahead for 2012.The Australian Women’s Weekly loves the heart cushion…

Home Ideas mag have been very lovely…

and love is in the air, online at ADORE.

My little girl started grade 4, and I find myself wishing that time would slow down. There’s too much to enjoy, and not enough hours in the day.
C’est la vie.
Sorry about the lack of blogging. I’ve got heaps of cool stuff up my sleeve, and none of it is shameless self promotion.
And I promise I won’t write anything in French, ever again.That’s just dumb.

This is what happens when you are on a beach holiday and the sun fails to shine.
Yes, it’s makeover time.I think you’ll agree, I’ve never looked better.
I’d like to say a huge thank you to my sister, who decided that the worlds largest makeup kit was an excellent birthday present for the nine year old. Just wait until she has a kid. I’m going to fix her right up. She’s going to spend her holidays looking like something out of ‘George & Mildred’, too.
Got to go. The rash is spreading down my neck…
