A little list of fun to get you through the rest of the working week.

Read: It's spring time which means you can finally get outside and tend your neglected, frost bitten garden... poor thing! Aussie gardening icon, Don Burke, has released a new edition of his book, Organic. It will be available on October 1, which is Saturday, so you'll have the whole weekend to read up and plant something glorious.

Shop: The Standard Store has just opened up on Crown St in Surry Hills and stock a whole heap of awesome European labels which haven't been overly available to us Aussies. Located in a lovely old 'bubbles and soap shop', there's Swedish denim, English brogues and Parisian hats and a gorgeous Airedale terrier napping by the door. So European!

Visit: Spring Hill Deli just outside the Brisbane CBD is pretty amazing. This place stocks locally made chorizo - from just down the road in Coorparoo to be exact - and the vegies are fresh and local and they also stock Persian fetta. If you're feeling like a gourmet god or goddess today, this deli will definitely satisfy your tummy! 

See: One Day. This pretty love story was adapted from David Nicholl's 2009 bestseller novel, One Day. The film tracks the lives of Em and Dexter after they spend one night together in college. Their lives lead them in different directions though the pair stay in contact. The story checks in with both characters on the 15th of July every year for 15 years before they eventually meet again in Paris... We think you can guess what happens next.

Write: Grab yourself a quirky card from the Melbourne-based stationery label, Able and Game and write somebody a neat message. Perhaps there's a birthday coming up, or maybe you just want to say thanks to a special somebody for being so great... Either way, you'll be able to find a cute card for every situation. Check out the collection here and get your pen ready!
