It's official, tomorrow is my last day in CT for a while! Next stop, Jozi and then off to the big smoke (LDN✌️) 🐧🧚‍♀️☺️.

BTW, BIG SHOUT OUT to @juaneventer.com_ for taking this awesome photo of me back in 2018 with my/our fav. almond butter choc chip brownies 😁.

Casual snap of me in the streets of Paris 🗼🥐🍷. Well at least that is what I imagined it would be like when I finally made it there, this overly romanticised slice of culinary paradise, with me going full Julia Child on that town. But it wasn't.

Last week I got to travel with my mum, for a wintery (freezing) trip to the rainy city of love. (Swipe for our authentic experience ➡️.)It poured, I froze, I currently have the sniffles thanks to it and ate more carbs than I have ever had in a space of 3 days (loved it!) and even though I didn't get the idilic trip I had always imagined, things turned out far better 🥐😍🐶☕.
.
We followed recommendations I'd been saving over the years and @milkkarten trip, which was golden. Every spot I shared in my stories (see highlights) is a massive recommendation, if you ever get the chance to go, no matter the time of year. I learnt so much and really got to reconnect with the beauty that classic and modern french cuisine has to offer ☺️🙌.

Paris was such a treat! Thanks @aclberesford

Oh and a quick real talk - this first IG approved picture was taken by @juaneventer.lifestyle in Bokaap, Cape Town ❤️👌☺️🙊.

What a privilege it was to travel with her. Can't wait for more trip like this. 2021 Perhaps 😊 🥐☕?

Butter. In all the various forms, plant based or not, will always have a special place in my heart ... and fridge.

Oooooooooooowie! It's only been a week into 2020 and man is it going 😅. Guys I really need to stay up to date this year with all my happenings because there is some pretty cool stuff on the go (if I do say so myself) that is worth while sharing 😊.
.
For now I'm just going to leave these pretty pictures of a recipe I did a few months back in london. It's for a quick soda bread (tastes like farm seed loaf 🤤). I lightly toast it and top with fresh fruit and a BAD ASS (budget friendly) home made cashew butter made in my VERY shitty food processor in London 😅.
.
That's all for now. I am melting Durbs but tomorrow its back to JHB and work work work 😬. Good luck if you're back on the grind.

With love from,
Frances xx

And unapologetic picture of me having the best time in LDN last year with the team from @applebluepatisserie.

If you know, you know but if not, when you get the chance to take a trip to Balham, stop in for bite and one of the most wonderful BS free and real food visits London has to offer.

@applebluepatisserie and their staff make me happy and proud to be a part of the food industry.

Sometimes on the weekend, I beg/force David (the boyfriend) to be my hand model (cause he's pretty). It's not a bad dig, he doesn't get paid (cause he spills and stays in his PJ's during the shoot) BUT gets to enjoy delicous products like the @humblewarriorhq drinks.

Thanks @d_dig_giddy_dave 👏 Love your work 🙌.

Coffee and cereal for lunch. It's not @4wks_coffee or handmade mini cookie cereal but it will do and I can dream. ✨☕🥄

So French 🇫🇷.

Admin info: it's le Vegan (insert bad French accent), glooootin free, so easy to make I reckon it could be done blindfolded ANNNNNND my favourite part of all, it's made with @theplantbasecollective interchangeable premixes ✌️💪 🙌☺️ (crowd applauds).

Tray bakes for the WIN!!! Especially when they're for a delicious filthy and obscenely clustery granola. :)
