• WIN | My Little Picasso Experience

    The day before schools went back a couple friends and I decided last minute to take our littles for a fun outing. We threw around a few ideas and then settled on the new “My Little Picasso” we had heard a few moms raving about at Cornubia Mall. We headed to the new-ish mall (it…


  • Our Valentine’s day in pictures

    It was a different Valentine’s for me. Waking up without my favourite person lying next to me was not the best feeling; Justin was in JHB on a business trip. We are seldom apart from each other, so it stung a little waking up on the “most romantic” day of the year alone.


  • REVIEW | Sugar & Spice Spa

    I was so excited when the lovely ladies at de Charmoy Estate invited me to enjoy and review their Sugar & Spice Spa. To be very honest too, though, I was also a little nervous, and I’ll tell you why;

  • Same oven & recipe, but very different buns!

  • My role in 16 days of Activism Campaign

    We are five days into the “16 days of Activism” campaign, and jeepers have I been overwhelmed with emotion with it all. To be completely honest I was not aware of this campaign until this year {head under a rock – okay maybe 3 children has something to do with it}, but this year my…


  • 5 steps to lifting my spirits when I’m low

    If I’m honest I am blessed with a generally happy disposition, so most days I am in a happy place and space and feel love all around me #rosetintedglasses . I won’t say that I wake up happy… because that would be an absolute lie. I am NOT a morning person and it takes me…


  • Finders Keepers | Kids Party Fun!

    I was recently invited… hang on… my KIDS were recently invited… to the launch of a new kids party entertainment concept called “Finders Keepers”, brought to you by Kiki & Boo.  It is, in my opinion, a brilliant concept, and one which took me back to some very happy childhood memories.


  • Chickenpox | Our experience with the virus

    Picture the scene: 01 September 2017 | Friday morning | 06:35am I am woken with these dreaded words: “Mom, look at all these spots on me!” There could not have been a worse time for my Jackson to get Chickenpox. The morning before his (and his brother’s joint) much anticipated soccer party -which had been…
