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

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

And then for the shortest time, the sun came out to say 👋during some quiet time with a minty cup of matcha 🍵. I still can't believe its my last day in London for the year! First stop Joberg and then to CT 😍I go. I can't wait to see everyone and get back to some exciting WERK!

Casual snap of me in the streets of Paris 🗼🥐

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 ❤️👌☺️🙊.

We made the rookie mistake of not checking our times before visiting the blue mosque (on a 2 day trip) so instead of touring it's interior, we walked through the gardens that surround it before heading into the streets for a manditory turkish coffeeand some apple tea 🍏🍵☕.

I love how romantic I can make my life on insta look when it is pretty much everything but that but that😱😂🙃!

I was in Hackney a couple weeks back and didn't really know where I was (I'm a bad explorer 😅) on a coffee shop hoppin mission.
.
I didn't accidently wander in to this gorgeous plant cafe, I RAN IN COMPLETE PEE PANIC (don't judge me, I'm not the only one).
.
So this is a message to all my friends (you know who you are) that want to open up a gorgeous jungle like cafe.... Make a GIANT sign, like HUGE, with flashing lights to the bathroom or you will get crazy espresso fueled customers like I was coming in, ackwardly dancing around begging for the bathroom. True story, too often 🙆🙈.

WE ARE CURRENTLY PLAYING THE DINNER GAME.... . Eve

WE ARE CURRENTLY PLAYING THE DINNER GAME....
.
Even though I am a qualified chef, and I work with food all day, and its want I think 98% of my day and even though I love food and all things food FOR SOME REASON even I go blank on what to make for dinner 😳😅🙈.
.
So a while back I started playing the DINNER GAME with Dave, it was formally known as "baby I'm hungry, yes me too, what do you want, I don't know, me neither, and so on..."
.
The game helps us
- save time, I make it work with our day ie how much time we have and it means
- we are both happy and excited about dinner because it's what we both wanted. (Dave is very fussy at times but doesn't know what he want so he is not always easy to please, my clients are way better 😂).
- We often don't have to buy much cause he often has very similar answers 😅.
.
Tonight we have changed things up and are playing the "where will there not be load shedding so we can charge our laptops and work/eat" game because this is South Africa and its a little thing call Load shedding that we forgot about. 🙃😳🙈
