Just like fashion, decor & fitness, the world of food & drinks experience new fads & trends all the time. Some come & go quickly, while others linger a bit longer.

Hallo friend. When last did you think about what makes you happy? And what makes you feel whole? I have a rather long list, but close to the top is… you (reading this right now). And tea. And shopping. And naps. And food. And pampering. Ok, I’m getting carried away, but you get the idea? […] Read more…
Towards the end of last year, I attended a function where the food table blew me away! Imagine a black table with a curated spread of gorgeous black & dark foods. Eating by colour at its best. It looked unreal & the food turned out to be super delicious too. Honestly, I think it was […] Read more…

Thanx for stopping by. Can you believe that it is almost October? I’m trying to remember where 2018 disappeared to. Mmmm. Mystery. We still have three months to make this year count though & the Christmas countdown has finally begun, so let’s do it! But first, some inspiration (or distraction) from the wonderful web. Enjoy.

For the last few years, I’ve preferred to start my day with a cup of tea. But about once a day I really enjoy a well-brewed cup of coffee or latté. Add a beautiful or interesting interior setting & I’m transported to coffee heaven! So, when I discovered these three gems on my recent visit to the KZN-Natal Midlands, I […] Read more…
Earlier this year I attended a Flux Trends Talk by trends expert Dion Chang.
