I am a short blonde proudly South African chick.
I was brought up on a heavy dose of imagination and make believe. Nature rocks too, I love almost everything that breathes and I try to give back by recycling, buying organic and using items that are not tested on animals.
I met my partner when I was 17 and we have been married for 18 years. We live in Johannesburg, South Africa with our 2 beautiful daughters, ages 12 and 16, 3 crazy dogs and 4 very different cats
I decided to start my own blog to put down my random thoughts and hopefully entertain you with them!
Thanks to my wonderful sister, who has single-handedly organised my website – here I go…!
