October 2018 had to have been one of the busiest month's of the year so far. And when I get to next month I will be sure to say November was busier. We got back from an amazing trip to Sicily and Italy and then it was full tilt. Socializing, eating out for Dave's birthday … Continue reading Showcasing October 2018 In My Kitchen

No sooner had I blinked and August 2018 was half way through. The count down has begun for our trip to Italy. But before I could even think of that, Dave and I went away.

July 2018 was the start of our first real winter in Cape Town for a long time. We have been in the throes of the worst drought seen for decades. And then the rain came! But more importantly, it snowed. We had some very cold days and some really warm days. And all-in-all, it was … Continue reading Showcasing July 2018 In My Kitchen

Dave and I did not go away racing, but we did go away for a night … Continue reading Showcasing June 2018 In My Kitchen

And, it was a Tuesday. Having a day off in the middle of the week upsets … Continue reading Showcasing May 2018 In My Kitchen
April 2018 April 2018 was an extremely emotional month for me. It started off with a family tea at my Aunt. We had a photograph taken and in it are my dad, two of his brothers, the wives, my Aunt's mom, some of my cousins, my sister and I, and 9 of the next generation … Continue reading Showcasing April 2018 In My Kitchen
March 2018 heralded the start of the next phase of kitchen building. Dave is doing the work himself and my kitchen drawers are looking amazing. I shall share photographs once they are all done. I went away for a long weekend to spend time with my parents and sister. Kerry was visiting from Australia and … Continue reading Showcasing March 2018 In My Kitchen
Was February 2018 the month of love for you? Our month started off in England and we got back to South Africa on the 12th. I think Valentines Day snuck up on Dave and this is the first year since 2001 that we did not go out for a meal. Or make something special at … Continue reading Showcasing February 2018 In My Kitchen
January 2018 I absolutely loved the start to my year. January 2018 kicked off with a little bit of crayfishing. That was a good thing as we did a lot of entertaining. Work did not start off with a bang but we are still in business which is a blessing. By the time you read this … Continue reading Showcasing January 2018 In My Kitchen
