Our new helios keeps our iced tea so cool! Summer has nothing on this smart little puss.
We bought ours from a place called Stitch in Diakoyama, Japan. If you get a chance to check it out, this shop is seriously cool.

Still on my bib hunt!

Well, as much as I have tried, Holly doesn't like Mummy's cooking half as much as something that comes from a jar..... So - the next best thing is finding her something healthy and organic from the shelves.
To get us started, we've found this great info page from Brisbane Organic Markets. This, along with some feedback from a valued reader, sees the launch of My Jnr's newest topic "Organic Goods". We'll be bringing the latest organic baby products to you soon. Let us know if you have a particular favourite you'd like to see featured.
My name is Katie Mackenzie. I have a gorgeous baby girl, and a husband who shares my appreciation for design. We hope to bring Holly up in a place that is full of fun, style and function. We have no room for clutter. And we are limited to products that are available to Australians. This blog summarises our efforts.
