Happy birthday Gramps

Happy birthday to my gramps, love your starshine xxx



Last weekend :)

On Saturday morning I dragged my boy to the Tokai Market for brownies and pancakes of deliciousness! He is lovely and I'm quite fond of him :) xxx


Had such a fun night at the Trinational Birthday party, celebrating with em, stam and kez :) Love my friendies :) xxx And yes... my panda obsession is getting out of hand, I actually dressed up like a bear :)

For mother's day, we went for a family lunch at the Mont Rochelle in Franschhoek. I had a wonderful day with my special family. Le Chocolatier Factory is a tiny restaurant and chocolate factory which serves the most divine cakes in town- I had the Lindt chocolate mousse cake- guilt on a plate!

My beautiful mum :)


Love my family xxx

paper boats

Greg spent ages teaching me to make paper boats the other day. One of the first memories I have of my darling gran is her making me these little boats. I was absolutely enchanted and was convinced that the fairies kidnapped them at night to transport them to the grand ball (don't ask... quite an imagination when I was little!)
 Did I mention that the boats make excellent hats as well? :) I miss you so.

Getaway

An adventure. Lovely crazy people, great place to work. Learnt a lot, got some things published in the magazine and wrote quite a few online blogs :) Look out for my two page article on keeping your cool with camping fridges, I think it's in the June mag hahaha :p

Hellooooooooo

Hello it's been a while :)

Me.
Obsessed with pandas (I have started wearing my panda hat in public!)
Working at an online marketing company with kimbug
Dream is to find a skops owl
Love my friends, family and my greg
planning to run away to Italy or France for a while
Trying to be healthier
Still dawdling doodling daydreaming
Lost my paintbrushes
In love with tea cups.
Snugglebug.

The word on oneword.com today was separate. This is what sprang to my fingers and got lost in my mind. Two parts. One egg. Yolk from white. crack. slip. strange. A molten gold beginning. Two hands, apart. Two minds. Supposedly one. But I am not. Can you be two when you are called one? Separate. No together. No. Two. But I am not. We venture forth, assumed as we. you are loved. By I. But I is not. you. we. not I but. There is only. the enormity of the love of a flea, and the crystal bell of a ring of silence.

Update on life: at work, now an online copywriter. Happy. It's raining outside.
