christmas cookies

Rudi bought this pretty tin of biscuits for me from Woolworths. The biscuits are just as good to eat as the tin is to look at.

sleepy bunny

Have I said it before? I want a bunny!

book shelves

While I do own a kindle now, I still love (and own a great deal of) books. So any of these great book shelves would be wonderful for our house one day. I'd love a room with floor to ceiling shelves to put all my books and nick-knacks. It must also have comfy, soft, overstuffed couches to lounge around on. One day...

chrismas present

Rudi and I are both pretty useless at buying something and then keeping it a secret from the other person. We always get so excited to give our gift to the other person. Hence I've gotten my Christmas present more than a month early.

Isn't it lovely? It's from Collect and we went to pick it up this afternoon :)

Thanks my love, you're the best xxx

you & me

Just love this engagement shoot photo. This is such a cute idea. Wish I knew who took it.

seapoint

After deciding put-put on a stunning Saturday morning wasn't the best idea (read loads of kiddies), Rudi and I decided to take a leisurely walk along Seapoint promenade. What a lovely day for walking next to the sea

beautiful skies

I might have mentioned this before, but every week Rudi and I try to have a date night. Working together we see a lot of each other, but it's all work work work and we decided we need to make some time for a little romance. So on Wednesday we decided to got to supper a little earlier. We were just finishing as the sun was setting so, on the spur of the moment, we headed off to Camp's Bay beach for Sinful ice-cream and some sunset viewing on the beach. It was beautiful, but the photos say it best.

orea cheesecake cupcakes

These are absolutely the best thing I've ever baked! And they were super duper easy. There are only two left in the fridge and it makes me very sad. I'll have to bake some again very soon (like maybe this weekend). I fear for my hips :)

some home decor

It's still hectic here and my blog is suffering (not to mention my social life). Work, work, work. I did manage to at least get my illustrations up and print my bunting out.

aaw!

I love otters :)
