This girl

Apparently bible study goes well with popcorn!

Lemons

The bowl needs to get bigger as the lemon tree is turning lovely lemons over to me everyday.

Its good to be silly

This is how my girl and I hang sometimes...

Her new blanket

My mother gave Rebecca this blanket that she made for her.  Rebecca loves it so much. Is there a more special gift? I think not.

Light the fire

Ryan, my awesome brother-in-law braaied for us this past weekend... it was so good!! Then we watched a movie and in the last 15 minutes the lights went out so we went back outside and revived the fire.  We then had tea and smores! Yum

Simple lunch

Quick - easy - tasty

Forthright Ella

The arty lady fingered her long necklace and looked pained.
'There's nothing here that would stand up to a week's use.' proclaimed Ella forthrightly.  'Look at this object!' What is it anyway?'
'It's a hair-tidy,' quavered the arty lady.
'A hair tidy?' boomed Ella, much as Lady Bracknell declaimed: 'A handbag?'
'Who the hell ever uses a hair tidy? demanded Ella.
But her victim had fluttered away to attend a less difficult customer choosing joss-sticks, and Ella made her way home determined to look out the cane and fashion something really worthwhile.

Marques De Riscal

This is where Wayne stayed last week in Spain.  He loves modern design as well as this beautiful region, so this unusual design hit the spot.

Herbal tea

I am an avid coffee drinker but over the last two months I have been drinking more and more herbal tea... I am now addicted.

My favourites...

Mommy and me

My mother is so faithful and true.  She is a total warrior.  Love her.

We had a great mothers day yesterday.

Rebecca's first teen party

And she had to dress up a bit... looked gorgeous!

Breakfast is my favourite meal

Overnight chai seed and oat porridge with figs.

Chai Latte

Its getting cooler in the Cape... time for spicy, warming non-dairy Chai latte.
