🌹 Who is your favourite? 🌹

I am besotted with Roberto Capucci at the moment, so fluffy and romantic and huge! Sophie Rochas is the closest I will ever come to growing a flower resembling a Peony in my warm climate garden. And then Mr. Lincoln looks like the rose from Beauty and the Beast! I can’t choose 🥰

Thank you @drizzleanddip , LOVE these! Find the recipe on her website or comment “Treat” on this post and I will send you her link directly.

Happy Easter friends!

🍆Melanzane Parmigiana🍆 What a treat to grow

🍆Melanzane Parmigiana🍆

What a treat to grow the humble Aubergine, they are prolific bloomers and I have an abundant amount of veggies this season. If you haven’t planted Aubergine before this is your sign to try it out next season, they grow like weeds.

We have made sauces this season, charred them and pickled them for salads, and our favourite…Melanzane Parmigiana! I recently tried out this recipe from @goodfoodeveryday and it was delish. Highly recommend!

🧺 You need a clutter basket 🧺 This is proba

🧺 You need a clutter basket 🧺

This is probably a bit “off content” for me as I am not at all an organised person, but I read about this solution to immediately feel relieved of clutter recently and thought I’d share with all my parent friends on here! It actually also just works well for any household even if you live by yourself, so listen up.

You dump everything in your “mors mandjie” that is giving you the irk. Keep this basket in the middle(ish) of your home for easy access. When said basket is full, your kiddos know it’s time to organise their things.

This really helps me keep a calm space with a 4 and 6 year old (and my 37 year old big kid self).

Hope this easy idea can help you too!

I can’t remember where I bought this basket, but if you are looking for baskets in South Africa, @basketlyshop has hundreds of beautiful options!

🔵🔴💛 Easy Lego Keychain DIY 💛🔴🔵

🔵🔴💛 Easy Lego Keychain DIY 💛🔴🔵

As with so many amazing things on the internet, I saw something similar on @pinterest recently and wanted to recreate it. This took me three minutes and cost ZERO Randelas because I had all the elements needed at home.

You will need:

Assortment of Lego Pieces needed for letter
One base Lego with an opening or hole
Keychain Ring

Build your letter.
Mount on Lego piece with hole.
SUPERglue not wood glue your pieces if you want them to stay stuck together, or just leave as is for a mini Lego play session.

And there you go! Fortunately it is pretty easy to build an “H” with this method, but I am sure you can get creative with the rest of the alphabet. Or even build a little personalised Lego man/woman figurine. Lekker speel!

🐄 Soetmelksvlei 🐄

What a day, what a farm, what a vision the dreamers of these farms have had. I love visiting @babylonstoren and this addition to their farm is just a wonderful experience for kids and big kids like us. We loved it and so will you!

99% sure we bumped into Koos Bekker in the farm museum too. He was so sweet and patient with my children who asked him a million questions about the Rhino and Hippo skeletons in the displays. What a day! 😁

🌱 10 Reasons to Choose 100% Wool for Insulation

🌱 10 Reasons to Choose 100% Wool for Insulation 🏠

Natural & Renewable 🌿
Wool is a sustainable resource, making it an eco-friendly choice for your home.

Excellent Insulator ❄️🔥
Wool naturally regulates temperature, keeping your home warm in winter and cool in summer.

Breathable 🌬
It allows your home to “breathe,” preventing moisture build-up and reducing the risk of mold.

Fire-Resistant 🔥
Wool is naturally flame-retardant, offering added protection to your home.

Durable & Long-Lasting 🏋️‍♂️
With proper care, wool insulation can last for decades without degrading.

Non-Toxic & Chemical-Free 🌱
Unlike synthetic materials, wool doesn’t off-gas harmful chemicals, ensuring a healthier living environment.

Moisture Management 💧
Wool can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet, helping to regulate indoor humidity.

Soundproofing 🎶
Wool is great at dampening sound, providing a quieter and more peaceful home.

Low Carbon Footprint 🌍
Wool insulation has a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to synthetic alternatives.

Natural Odor & VOC Neutralizer 🌸
Wool naturally absorbs Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and binds them for up to 30 years, improving indoor air quality and keeping your home fresh.

Fun Fact: The wool we used comes from @gerber_and_co. a family farm in Namakwaland where they raise sheep with care and respect for the land. By choosing this wool, you’re supporting local, ethical farming practices! 💚
