As I sit down to write this blog post, I have nothing. What I mean by ‘nothing’, is my mind is blank. The last 2 days have been crappy (for various reasons), and it almost feels like I have writer’s block at the moment. Crappy days….they come out of nowhere and they give you a swift kick up the ‘you-know-what’ and yet they also make you appreciate the better days.

I’m probably sipping on some type of slushie or smoothie too, since the weather report tells me it’s going to be a nice & warm in Cape Town for the next 2 weeks (I’m writing this blog post in advance).

While you guys are reading this blog post, I’m probably walking along the beach in Hermanus… Not trying to make you jealous, just saying… Alright…I’m trying to make you just a little jealous. Continue reading
Sorbet is my weakness – it’s just so light, flavourful & refreshing!
