A couple of Saturday’s ago – when it was really rainy and wet in Cape Town, I bundled my kids up into the car and we set out for the…

This is how the girls and I will be spending our morning…  And I can’t wait! Can you believe that the last time I properly baked with my kids (where…

Can I just mention “The Epic Enthusiasm Fail of 2012” or more well known to the girls as “The Time We Killed Their Imagination Cos We Suck At Consistency“.  Oh…
