Loving…surviving Winter

July 2, 2014

I’ve been really confused by winter in Cape Town this year.  We had some really miserable and freezing days, but they’ve also been interspersed with warm, balmy days where I’ve been tempted to wear short sleeves!  I don’t think that we’re through the worst of it, so a part of me is bracing myself for more…

Loving…Babylonstoren {Botanical Beauty}

June 17, 2014

Morning everyone!  I was just about to write “Happy Monday”, but I had to remind myself that it’s actually Tuesday.  For those of you in SA, I hope you had a lovely long weekend. I’ve posted about Babylonstoren before, but one of my favourite things about it is that every time we visit there’s something…

Loving…learning to crochet

June 16, 2013

I’ve never really been that inspired to crochet.  My dear Nan taught me to knit when I was a little girl (I can knit a mean scarf), but crochet was never really that high up on my radar, I guess I associated it with those awful toilet roll covers with the barbie on top (yikes).…

Loving…HOTCHkiss creations

June 7, 2013

My dear friend Jade has recently launched her own business selling her beautiful hand-crocheted items. I was lucky enough to get one of her scarves for my birthday recently, which I love! Each item is made with the utmost love and care, using high quality yarns in gorgeous colours. Pop over to her website, or…

Loving… Autumn

April 3, 2013

So, it seems that Cape Town has decided that Summer is officially over.  There was no gradual decrease in temperature, Autumn just arrived (or at least it feels that way).  And I have to confess that I’m actually enjoying it.  I love summer, but I’m also really looking forward to evenings cuddled up under a…

Loving…snow!

August 13, 2012

So, we’re back from our weekend in the mountains with the in-laws.  And yes, we did get to play in the snow!  I lived a somewhat snow-deprived childhood in a coastal town, so my extent of snow experiences was limited to yearly sightings on the top of the local mountains.  I did get to see…
