a pop of mustard
I’m loving the mustard and canary yellow I’ve been seeing everywhere. I’ve particularly fallen in love with the mustard colour. Weird how colours that used to make you wrinkle up your nose as a child all of a sudden appeal to you. I managed to find an adorable little cropped mustard sweater at Mr Price over the weekend (I am a die hard bargain shopper) that I cannot wait to pair...
happy cake friday!
This is quite possibly the best(est everest) cake… EVER!
We have declared ‘Cake Fridays’ in our office and I think we have created a monster. we even considered having this for breakfast.
Whilst making this the night before I cut off the top bits so as to make the cake level for icing and popped one of these pieces into my mouth. Wow. You probably didn’t even need the icing this cake is...

summer lovin'
…happens so fast! I don’t know about that but what I do know is that I burn super fast in the Cape Town sun. Beach days have never been fun for me. I usually go home the shade of a pale red crayon and have on one (ok three) occassions developed blisters. The damage I’ve potentially caused my skin is terrifying. Now wearing factor 50 just isn’t conducive to getting a slight...

eye of the tiger
Ok cat rather. Either way I’m loving the cat eye sunglasses that I’ve seen Kourtney Kardashian wearing. Yes I watch (ok I’m obsessed with) Keeping up with the Kardashians. I’ve got to get me a pair of these!

yet another internet space
Heya! So I’ve decided to claim another part of cyberspace where I can put down my thoughts, discoveries, things I learn and how I get on with my new SLR camera. Something that is not food related. If you pop down to www.mykitchenconfessions.com you will find another little piece of cyberspace that I have claimed. There you will find all things food related - my other passion in life - but I...
