Normally, I would not be seen dead in my PJ's with zero make-up, however, this is a typical morning in our household (before tea). Notorious B.I.G on top of me and Persephone in my arms. Happiness is...
everything looks so lovely. we have a friend, a south african, arriving from london this afternoon. she's living there fulltime, having sold her house as you were buying yours.

Deletethe western cape is simply a marvel. i just spent this past weekend with friends in Prince Albert, where they were celebrating the town's 250th anniversary with together with their inaugural art festival - it's a must-see town! charming, quaint, full of friendly helpful people. you'd love the buildings and the antiques - there's a set of art deco crockery at the Fransie Pienaar museum that i really wanted to steal but settled on buying the last remaining Phillip Rikhotso sculpture at the festival. you simply must visit this town! i love your blog and i'd love to see the town through your impeccable eye. shout out to Notorious B.I.G :)
ReplyDeleteOh, Prince Albert is one of my favourite Karoo towns. I cannot wait to go back. Fantastic food too! Thanks for reading, Fumi! Phil xxxxxx
