Chip n Dip
If I’m at any event, especially concerts, you’ll find me at the only place that matters, the chip ‘n dip stand of course! I without fain choose the honey mustard sauce and drench my fries in this deliciousness.
Pickleball
My new found obsession is Pickleball. It’s one of the newer sports in south Africa and let me tell you a girlie who loves playing sport, this one in particular as me in a chokehold. I play 3 times a week for a minimum of 3 hours per session. Gooooo sports!
Cake
My Obsession with Cake. Chocolate cake can make even the worst of my days better. Let me let you in on a secrete, the best way to eat cake is to have it microwaved for 10 seconds. Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it !
Healthy homemade meals
Preparing incredibly healthy food. I take my wellness very seriously. I do allot of the wellness related things like eating well and going for runs not only because I want a good body but because I want to still be incredibly healthy when I’m in my 60’s. Eat well live long.
Dermalogica
The clear start range from Dermalogica. I love myself a good skin care routine. The Dermalogica skincare range agrees with my skin and the clarifying body spray does wonders for my skin particularly on my back.
Solo trips to African countries
Being disconnected. I always have a better perspective of life, better perspective of my goals and where I want to be in life, I try to disconnect as much as possible by taking solo trips to neighbouring countries or quick solo hikes in the nearest park.
Wine farms – for the restaurants
Cape Town has some of the world’s finest winefarms , and we all know that good wine goes with good food. I love good food, you’ll find me at many vineyards posted at their restaurants enjoying a well prepared, well thought out meal.
