Chicken Liver Pate
With Christmas already over, I thought I would share with you something that we ALWAYS have at our family Christmas – chicken liver pate. Mum has always made the most delicious pate & eating it brings back the best, happy memories. I have tried different recipes, but none can quite compare to my staple! Mum’s […]
Catch Up Time
It has been a while since I have written a blog. There seems to have been so much going on & at long last I am able to sit back on the couch & not immediately pass out from absolute exhaustion. I thought it was time to write a little catch up on everything that […]
The Curious Kitten
With 2 ladies at my work expecting their own little miracles, babies are definitely on the brain! I have always much preferred supporting a small business & getting something special for baby showers, although can’t resist popping into the chain stores for a few cute little outfits! While exploring the world of social media, I […]
Lingo Coffee
I haven’t always been a huge coffee fan; but burning the candle at both ends, as well as smelling the delicious scent of my husband’s coffee in the morning has made me brave & want to finally “grow up”. I still don’t know if I am brave enough to try some without sugar & milk, […]
Olive and Arrow
When it comes to art, there are so many different, unique styles & whenever I seem to think I have discovered that which I love the most I seem to discover another. Have you ever heard of “one line drawing”? It is as the name says, & coming across Olive & Arrow introduced me to […]
Von Fluff
Do you remember going to a market as a young child & being completely captivated by the young man spinning the candy floss in a great big red metal drum, & handing you this piece of magic wrapped around a stick? I was always enthralled by the sugar spinning & how this just melted in […]
SLDV Illustration
As I’m sure you know by now, I am trying to collect family portraits from different South African artists/illustrators & hope to one day have a whole feature wall with different interpretations of our lives. We may not be your usual family (what with our children being four-legged & furry), but we are a family […]
Tissue Oil
When I was contacted by Rubybox to participate in their survey for Justine Tissue Oil, I was very interested! Rubybox is a great service offered right here in South Africa, where you subscribe & they send you surveys to complete that they feel may relate to you & your needs. You then complete them honestly, […]
Cade Culture
If you know anything about my husband, you know that he is a big gamer & loves nothing better than having some down time in front of his PS4 playing Call of Duty with his online buddies, or even a little FIFA. It allows him to escape the stress of reality & he has made […]
A Day of Radiance
After using a few of Bella Boneca‘s products, I was so impressed & immediately reached out to Megan, who started this whole business. She realised the importance of using natural products, free of parabens & not tested on animals. She researched & put a lot of time into this, before realising that there wasn’t a […]
