“I, Cindy Alfino, being of sound mind and body” decided to invite two of the kids friends over for a sleep over.  Where inevitably I would no longer be in…

Do you struggle to get your kids to brush their teeth? I do.  It’s a flipping mission. Well actually, that’s not really a fair comment. With Kyla we bought her…

This morning when I came into work I found out that someone had been HIJACKED AT GUN POINT in the secure, off street parkade that I park in every single…

I have been dying to get my hands on these images ever since we spent a morning capturing them a few weeks ago. We ventured out into Wynberg park very…

Good Friday seems like a good day to start a new series.  It just feels right.  So that’s exactly what I’m going to do. Recently I have been inundated with…

I love the promise of a long road trip. It doesn’t really matter where you’re going, does it?  Because when you get into that car with your padkos packed, your…

Did you already have plans for 9 May at 2pm? Oh dear.  Maybe you should cancel them because it’s time for the #CTMEETUP! The only “requirement” of attending is that…

I think that this is the first time that I am reverting to a Currently post because I feel like it and not because I feel overwhelmed with life.  I feel…

It’s happening.  Like really happening. We had such a great time at the #CTMeetUp last year that we thought that we would have another (smaller) meet up that only focused…
