Things I am loving

I jumped on the new trend wagon and bought myself this watch, haven't changed back to my other watch yet as I so adore this watch.




This is truly a miracle cream, moisturiser, primer, anti oxidant and coverage all in one and all in a product that smells like fresh melons, yum.  Love love love this product will definitely be repurchasing



Another amazing product, used under foundation (or BB cream) keeps skin mattified all day, will also be repurchasing it (just has a slightly weird smell, not terrible just odd, almost strong soap smelling)






Stella & Dot: Signature Clover Necklace, would love this but they won't ship to SA



Stella & Dot: La Coco Chain, would love this too but ditto on the shipping to SA



Now this hasn't hit SA yet but I have seen so many rave reviews about the Revlon Lip Butters that I asked a friend who was in the UK to pick some up for me, really looking forward to trying these out

Hair

 When they were handing out hair I have always said I was at the back of the queue.  I have very fine, thin hair and no jokes these are all the products I have to use each and every day (I do swop out the shampoos and conditioners with other types I have, but they are all volume boosting of some sort) in order to just get my hair to look like it has any kind of body at all.  These products along with a hairdryer (every morning) and velcro rollers do the trick (just realised that I excluded the Volume mask I put on as well).  I have always wished my hair was a lot thicker but then again, I have yet to find any woman who is happy with the hair they were given.

Flower

As I have no flowers in my kitchen this week, I ventured out into my garden in search of some flowers, as we are going into winter soon the pickings were slim, however these were just hanging in there, such pretty little flowers

Stairs

Although I always think of my house as a single story, I have three stairs from the spare room up to the lounge, two stairs from the lounge up to Jordy's Room and another two stairs up to the kitchen, thats seven stairs in total, not exactly a house on the flat.

Where you ate breakfast

As I have mentioned before, I don't really eat breakfast, however when my Mum & Dad are here for the weekend, I love to make a full breakfast and if the weather is nice enough we eat outside the kitchen on this bench set

Lunch

For Easter Sunday Lunch we went to BiCe at Hyde Park Sandton Sun.  What a sublime experience, Grant and I had an eight course Kobe BiCe menu and Jordy had the seven Course Japanese menu.  Although each individual meal was a small portion, by the time I got to the fifth course I was beginning to fear food.  Each morsel was truly divine.  Highly recommended for a special occasion. 
We started with a calamari dish with wasabi cream and cucumber,

followed by a Salmon Rose, 

Followed by Prawn & vegetable tempura

 Then some Sashimi

Grant and my menu then moved off the Kobe side of the menu to the BiCe half of the menu, whereas Jordy's carried on with Japanese food.
Ours started with Ravioli in a cream and mushroom sauce (no pics unfortunately) then followed by a beautiful asparagus risotto (I however couldn't face a risotto, as I was already ready to run screaming from all these beautiful morsels they kept putting in front of us, so Jordy took my risotto and I had her miso soup)
This was then followed by a fish dish that sat atop the most divine mashed potato with toasted almonds (yum)

Then the piece de resistance was a chocolate mouse with a chocolate twill.

We then made our way out onto the deck for cocktails and to see the magnificent view.

I highly recommend this restaurant, their food was impeccable, however after eight courses I felt like I would never eat another bite of food again.

Someone that makes me Happy

Cue the sickly sweet comments, no but seriously.  I am so very fortunate to have so many wonderful people in my life that make me happy.  From my family to my amazing friends, I am really blessed.  The "Someone" who makes me happy has to be the two "Someones" nearest and dearest to me.  My wonderful Husband and remarkable daughter.  They both give me continuous grey hairs and love to take the mickey out of me on a regular basis but we laugh a lot, I couldn't have wished for a more supportive & loving husband and my daughter just makes me so proud to be her Mum for being such a well rounded, grounded, loving individual.  So here is my "Someone" who makes me happy

Mail

The only mail I get these days is email, nobody seems to send letters via the post anymore, anyhow, if they did with the Postal service we have, it would probably never get here, anything that doesn't look like a bill mysteriously never seems to get through.  Mind you, I received a Christmas card Sent from my Cousins & Uncle in December that only arrived in March.  I sent a message to them to say thank you and was told "better late than never"  We just seem to accept that this is how bad our postal service is.  I must say, however easy email has made communicating with people, I think it has made us all very lazy (I will be the first to put up my hand and say I am also a culprit) Instead of getting up from ones desk and going to speak to a person we would rather email the person who sits in the office next door, never quite sure if it is lazyness or "cover your proverbial" that causes it, however what it results in is that I get back tot the office after being away for one day to find 314 items in my inbox.
