One of my very favourite things to do during the festive season is to wrap gifts. If fact, my family members often make fun of me because I’m often very ‘strict’ about making the gifts look pretty & festive. Each gift – no matter how small – must at least have some sort of ribbon […] Read more…
I don’t know about you, but the closer I get to December & Christmas, the slower I seem to get things done. I realise that I might have taken on a bit too much. I’m not complaining about work coming my way through, but still. All I really want to do is wrap gifts, bake […] Read more…
Traditional bobotie is one of my top South African dishes! It is really, really tasty but often not the healthiest of recipes. For instance: my favourite traditional Bobotie recipe contains sugar, bread, jam, raisins, chutney & oil. It is served with yellow rice (made with golden syrup (!), turmeric and raisins).

I am so excited about this post, I can hardly keep my composure! It is not December yet, which means you still have some time left to get your gift shopping in order, plan your menu & decor & get yourself organised. If, like me, you love the concept of an advent calendar, then you […] Read more…
Since I can remember, I’ve always had & always loved Revlon nail colours. They are such winners & this one (called ‘Rich’) is no exception.

Recipe by Herman Lensing, food editor of Sarie magazine. This guy might be young, but he is über-talented. Love his work! I’ve included a […] Read more…
How about adding a finishing touch to your outfit when going to your next party or event by ‘dressing’ your nails to complement your outfit? This is exactly what I did when I hosted my annual Cuppa4Cansa tea party on Saturday. The theme: black & white with a pop of colour! Quite fitting, my nails were also […] Read more…
I love the Cuppa 4 Cansa* campaign. Maybe because it’s an excuse to have a party AND do something worthwhile at the same time? I’m so grateful that my inner-inner circle has not been affected by breast cancer, but I know many women who have & I really believe that this is a cause worth […] Read more…
The realities of breast cancer are harsh, but creating awareness, raising money, celebrating survivors & those who battled it, & doing your examinations, don’t have to be boring or make you sad…. Personally, I think it’s a good excuse to add some pink to your own or another life. If you haven’t done it yet, […] Read more…
Honey Ryder by OPI is part of the liquid sand collection, which means that it looks & feels like sand paper. So cool! I specifically tried this one to match my fab red scarf & this beautiful costume jewellery ring from Poetry! Yolandi ♥ Read more…
