Friday made me smile. Knowing it was the weekend and I could have a rest!
2. What ingredients make a perfect Saturday?
Getting out into nature, doing something creative - writing or drawing or even daydreaming, having some alone time, and a cheeky glass of wine and some chocolate at the end of the day...with a film!
3. What is the best thing you ever had for dessert? Share the memory or the recipe.
Peppermint Crisp fridge tart - this is a South African favourite. You could probably find equivalents of the ingredients. Google them if you're interested. It's worth it! Yummy yumm!!!

4. What is your favorite memory of your mom, or your favorite thing about being a mom?
My favourite memory of my mum is mainly of how creative and clever she was. I was always in awe of how effortless she made everything look. From making mosaics over our old fireplace, and garden table, to DIY house jobs, painting, making clothes and handbags. And so, so, so much more! I wish I had half of her talent.
5. What are your plans for the summer (or winter, for those in the southern hemisphere)?
Spending time with family. Going to work some days. And visiting Cornwall too. Hope to make some arty things, and do some gardening.
