Today I'm excited to introduce a new addition to the blog and a new contributor, so please welcome Chic Eats and Adele Haywood.

While I absolutely love entertaining at home, I also love Melbourne's cafes, the quaint and quirky gems that you find hiding in our inner city streets, deep in our city Parks or even sitting proudly in our smaller country towns. 

I find my creativity is lifted when I visit a really special cafe, so you will often find me perched in a corner with notepad and iPad planning my next party or event and trying to avoid the special baked treats on display.

Adele will seek out the special, hard to find places so we can all enjoy them.

Cheers Julie
