Addicted to avocados

When I was little I absolutely detested, as in really really disliked, avocados. I used to describe to my family that the texture was too raw for my liking (duh well avo's are raw) and that it was just not going to happen. Well I'm not sure at what age I converted, but I am now an addict! Avo goes well with , almost, everything. So when I found this tumblr I couldn't help but share it.

yummy! guess what i'm having for lunch?

last day in sunny SA

life has been but insane and I can't believe my last post was over a month ago. It's just been  a mix of trying to finish my first proper jewellery collection (will share the photo's soon, i promise) to packing to traveling to arriving in a grey and cold Paris, dealing with my bank (and all the unaccounted for charges) trying to unblock my phone and the worst, dealing with the visa renewal procedure. Luckily all is sorted and I can get back to a somewhat normal life.
However in all this commotion I miss my family terribly (as i always do the first little bit) and the yummy sushi lunch we had just before I left. There's nothing better than getting onto a plane filled with your bestest of comfort food, makes the transition of summer to winter, south to north, Africa to Europe, just that little more bearable.

Orange pork stir fry, yummy!

Yesterday while browsing through some blogs, I found an absolutely delicious looking recipe on the Lucky Pony blog. I'm also going through a massive masterchef obsession at the moment, so any recipe that catches my eye needs to be test and tried. This orange pork stir fry was delicious and super easy to make. She also suggests the next time she makes it to add ginger (also going through a ginger craze at the moment) so I did. Yummy and easy dinner!

Bon appetit!

a night at the market

With the 1 December not only comes the countdown to a new year but it's when everyone starts to embrace, I mean truly embrace, the christmas spirit and Christmas markets start to pop up!
Last night I attended the market on main for their Christmas edition. Although it was raining it was still great fun with bloody Mary's, sushi, crepes, shopping and listening to great music, I even spotted some stylish mec.
