I have found a new luv, it’s baking! Something about the measuring of ingredients feels quite cathartic. So when I got a cake pop tray from Nic for my birthday (thanks my friend) I was eager to try these suckers out (see what I did there?!). If you don’t know what a cake pop is […]

As I mentioned before Sarah came to visit and we ate and ate and ate. We had the most amazing lunch at Bistro Sixteen82 at Steenberg (one of my fav places to go). We followed this meal up with a girls dinner at La Boheme. Two amazeballs meals in one day! Fat much?! But let […]

It was New Year’s Day – we were hungry, but couldn’t be asked to cook so off we went to have lunch. We thought about it and decided on Barristers – they also offer a rad lunch special, R40 a meal from their pub menu. This sounded perfect. We arrived a few minutes before 12 […]
