Stuff all about food
After our lunch at Empire Sarah and I made our way back to the burbs and then headed off into town to Nix’s place where Sarah was staying for a few days. After a good catch up and number of laughs, along with glasses of wine and gorgeous views, we realised our tummy’s were rumbling […]
I have told you before that I ate this holiday and eat I did, especially when Sarah came to visit from London! She is one of my oldest friends, we met the day before Sub A and she was down to visit from London for a week. So I put on my stretchy pants and […]
This Christmas was a very different one and a very special one. We have family friends who I have know all m life. Growing up we used to spend every Sunday with them. It was always a special time and saying goodbye always seemed like a tragedy as if we’d never see them again. So […]
I’m beginning to think I should have called this blog EAT, because I find that’s all I’ve been writing about. Crumbs I really do do more than eat, but it seems that festive season has meant the plate doesn’t stop being full and the festive season hasn’t quite ended yet – anyone else with a […]
If you’ve ever been to Buitenverwachting either for their epic wine tasting or for their amazing food at the restaurant you will love another excuse to visit. They now have a really cool Coffee Shop open, which is also where you can get picnic stuff from. But I met friends there while they were buying […]

Who doesn’t love a good old South African braai? If you don’t there is something wrong with you (jokes its not for everyone). I love that smokey braai smell that permeates from every porous object on your body – think hair, jeans, jerseys and so on. The second part about a braai is that its […]
Cooking for one isn’t all that easy and often ends up with me going to get a take away or something rather bland. So what a friend and I have decided is to make a more regular (and by regular we’re aiming for once a week) dinner date. The deal is we alternate cooking and […]
I love having Rik home from Bots, for many many reasons but one is because he makes ridiculously good food. I definitely pick up a pound or twelve when he’s here, but it is so worth it. This night he made the most scrumdiddlyumptious pork chop, mash and coleslaw. I don’t know about you, but […]
Kitty and Paul had just moved into their new spot – which is totally awesome and Mieka (the pooch) is loving life with the garden. What better way to celebrate moving into a new place (which is tiring and stressful) than a perfect day and a braai. And what was to be on the braai, […]
