We have mentioned before that we absolutely love going to the Scratch Patch (where you can “scratch” for gems). There is a Scratch Patch at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town, but the one we went to this time was the one in Simons Town, Cape Town. They have a fun cave golf section now …
Recycabilia do the most gorgeous family blocks with a quote block in the centre. These are ideal gifts ( think Father’s day – you can thank me later š ). The reason I just adore these blocks is because they bring back the memories into our homes, they make us smile and give us strength …

These may all seem like the same thing, however, “pausing” is different. Ok, let me explain it like this. We all know South African taxi drivers, or at least we …
Before we got married, my husband and I agreed that (if possible) when we have children, I would be at home with them. Though I work from home now, I am still available when my child needs me. Now, this choice may not be for everyone or even be possible for everyone and what is …
