So I have not done a food review in a minute…so I thought I would share a brunch experience at a new/old Port Elizabeth hot-spot Baakens Bistro, which used to be known as Friendly Stranger…
I popped over with my dear friend, Durelle (who does not come to town nearly enough) and we went to check out if the new owners are doing the place justice…
Continue readingI recently bought the Curl Connection Protein Feed mask and got a little Hair and scalp butter cream as a gift. So that means review time!!!
I also bought the Curl Connection miracle oil and got the hair gel but that’s for the next review.
I was introduced to coffee pod guru by a friend not to long ago. Much like me she has a shameless coffee and tea addiction and so does her hubby. She bought him refillable pods from coffee pod guru for Christmas and I simply had to get some for myself.
This started my journey to becoming a bit of an at home barista…
Continue readingWhen we received a range of Iwori skincare/body products for the last ECmeetup we were super excited because the products are vegan, cruelty free and made with sustainability in mind. Although the products are aimed at women I asked Rob (he’s the husband for those new around these parts, to try it out with me, just for funsies)
I often opt to buy skincare products that all three of us can use, we just go for natural and gentle and then don’t have to have mamma bear, pappa bear and baby bear shelves in the bathroom (obviously some things are bought to our specific needs – and for hygienic reasons[like separate toothbrushes and rollon-] – but in general, we try to enjoy a fuss free existence… All for one and one lotion for all)
I don’t know a single human woman who doesn’t get super annoyed at their hair. Everyone I know has wanted to just shave it off, do some extreme treatment or buy a weeks worth of wigs. I often start wondering if relaxer isn’t the way to go, straighten this mess and see what happens…luckily for me I follow many local ladies with enviable curls who make me stick to my guns and stay away from the cream crack (relaxer)
One such local hair guru is Racquel from The Curls Factory her hair is incredible and she does really cool reviews. I asked her for tips for keeping my hair healthy and this is what she had to share
In celebration of its 21st anniversary, MySchool MyVillage MyPlanet has launched the ’21 years of Giving Back’ campaign which is basically them giving away R2.1 million to 21 worthy causes. You have until the end of February to nominate any South African charity that matters to you. Then in May, 21 winning beneficiaries will be chosen from the list of nominations to each receive R100 000, and the supporters who nominated them will each receive a R1 000 Woolies Giftcard.
This is all pretty awesome right! But why go through the trouble of entering a competition when the bulk of the money does not come to you?
Well, I visited the charity of my choice, Aurora Special Care Centre, this week and flip the way I hope you guys vote for them!!!
