When Oliver was still a tiny baby, we were given our very first set of DUPLO (which is basically LEGO for tiny tots aged 1,5 – 5 years). I thought yay another lovely gift. But I had no idea how amazing it really is. I never played with LEGO as a child, so I honestly […] Read more…
Growing up, we always had meals at the table. Breakfast was a sit down affair (mostly all five of us) & dinner was a non-negotiable: home cooked meal, all together, no TV, just eating & talking.

On my recent visit to Cape Town, I was lucky enough to be treated* at The Cellars-Hohenort for an afternoon of treats & eats which included their Low Carb High Tea. If Low Carb (aka Banting) High Tea makes you think of proteien-only options with loads of fat, then think again. In fact, if you did […] Read more…
