New Terramundi Money Pots Just Added!

We have just added some gorgeous new Terramundi Pots to our range and have also restocked some of our bestsellers.  These unique, terracotta money pots are hand thrown in Italy and hand painted in London and have been traditionally used in Italy for over 2000 years. The tradition is that once the first coin is dropped the money pot must be fed until full upon which it must be smashed whilst making a wish. As the Terramundi is renowned for bringing good fortune, it is customary to replace the pot and spend the money on good things. What a good idea!!  Let us know what you think of our newbies (pictured) by commenting below.

Food Trucks!

We have been checking out a couple of the Melbourne food trucks recently.  First we popped into the CBD to grab a burger from Mr Burger - I was hoping for a veggie option but they hadn't introduced them yet (they should be available by now) -  so I went the meat burger - even though I'm not usually a fan of burgers (unless I have made them myself and I know the meat is good quality) - I really enjoyed my Mr Burger burger!!  David was also a big fan - Georgie even enjoyed a bit of a nibble (not that you can tell by the funny face she is pulling in this photo).

So, because that was such a successful outing, we thought we would pop past the Taco Truck when it was in Brunswick.  And I'm pleased to say that it was another yummy meal - I had the fish tacos which were really delicious. Go the food trucks I say - fun and yum!
