Kitchen tea activities have matured since the days my gran used to volunteer my services to look after the kids of women who couldn’t find babysitters. I’d sneak a peek as my aunts and their friends would basically haze the bride with traditional games that often involved eating/drinking disgusting concoctions and having their already questionable outfits covered in eggs and flour (this might be a cultural thing, I don’t know as I’ve only been on multicultural guest lists since becoming an adult so can’t compare it to the past).
But kitchen tea activities are more civilised now, I like to think… and these are my top five activities to get the guests involved and none of them include publicly humiliating the bride…I mean unless she’s into that sort of thing.
Seen one #ECMeetup seen them all right? I mean how much chatting to like-minded individuals, amazing goodiebags and expert blogging advice does one really need?
Surely you don’t need to come for the following reasons.
Recently you might have noticed me share pictures of a Rhino Coin Bank on my social media. If you wondered what the deal was with this, not so plush, plush… it’s simple. This toy rhino is the relaunch or a very successful project that ran a while back, using a simple toy to raise funds for orphaned rhinos
Prima Toys sent it my way and as I have some earth child, hippie tendencies, it got my attention. I immediately thought that this toy would be an ideal way to give a gift to a child (R199 is round about the birthday gift standard?) and also do something for the rhino who desperately need our help.
I’ve decided to give 2018 another go.
It’s been a rough year, but onward and upward…
I like new year’s resolutions so why not – four months into the year – do a quick “ctrl, alt, del” and mentally start 2018 afresh.
