NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto – a flavour introduction- VIDEO

September 13, 2013 by • Lifestyle, Uncategorized • 1 Comment

In my last blog post, I wrote about how I’ve been given my very own NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto coffee machine to review- yayness! It’s actually changed my whole after-work routine. Instead of just boiling the kettle and making tea- I now have a whole selection of hot drinks to enjoy after dinner. My favourites so far are […]

Philips Airfryer: Review*

September 10, 2013 by • Lifestyle, Uncategorized • Tags: • 11 Comments

Some time ago, I was given a Philips Airfryer to review. I’ve been postponing writing the review because I was hoping that if I delayed posting, then Philips would let me keep the machine for longer 🙂 Sadly, they took it back a few weeks ago and I’ve really been missing it since.When I heard […]

NESCAFÉ launches its Dolce Gusto coffee machine- and you can win one!*

September 6, 2013 by • Lifestyle, Uncategorized • Tags: • 8 Comments

I’m thrilled to be one of the 11 bloggers selected by NescaféDolce Gusto to try out their new coffee machine. Confession: I’m an absolute coffee addict, I literally cannot start my day without a cup of the good stuff. It’s like my morning cappuccino includes mood lifting ingredients. Instant coffee doesn’t always hit the spot, and I […]

Night Out For 2 at Montecasino is a pretty sweet deal*

August 29, 2013 by • Lifestyle, Uncategorized • Tags: • 2 Comments

Although I may not be a fan of malls and indoor spaces, I always like to take advantage of a good deal. I like to give myself a little pat on the back when I’ve scored a bargain 🙂 When Groupon first launched, I was probably their biggest supporter.  I know loads of you enjoy […]

The Best Macarons Outside of Paris*

Admittedly, bloggers get lots of perks. Invites to fab events, press trips, and cool drops from PR companies are just some of them, but my favourite perk, which adds real value and happiness to my everyday life- are the foodie perks. I LOVE trying out new restaurants for the Sunday Independent, and I would definitely […]

Happiness? It’s all relative.

August 13, 2013 by • Lifestyle, Uncategorized • Tags: • 10 Comments

I’ve always considered myself a happy person. Sure, I get bouts of depression like everyone else, but I’m usually able to pick myself up again quite quickly. Related, I’ve always had short term thrills to keep me looking forward to something. I spent my entire childhood/ adolescence in PE looking forward to coming to JHB […]

Get out of the city and feast on a farm*

August 6, 2013 by • Food, Uncategorized • Tags: • 0 Comments

I love exploring Jozi, especially areas that are off the beaten track. Attending a Down to Earth Farm Feast has been on my to do list forever, and I finally got down to it a few weeks ago. The idea was created by 2 BFFs, Dany and Danielle, and was based on a similar concept which […]

Fourways Farmers’ Market is really cool, especially considering it’s in Fourways…

August 5, 2013 by • Food, Uncategorized • Tags: • 10 Comments

Although some areas of Jozi are really quirky and lovely, like Braamfontein, Parkhurst and Greenside, there are other areas which I try to avoid at all costs.  These include Edenvale, Roodepoort and… Fourways. I’ve made no secret of my distaste towards Montecasino, there is ALWAYS traffic going into Fourways, even on weekends, the suburb is […]

The Boardwalk Hotel in PE*

August 1, 2013 by • Port Elizabeth, Travel, Uncategorized • 0 Comments

I’ve always thought about PE in the context of “going home” and never as a weekend getaway or holiday destination. This year, I’ve been travelling to PE at least once every 6 weeks after my dad was diagnosed with lung cancer. On that note, thanks for all the sweet messages of support I’ve received. It […]

David Higgs’ Five Hundred at the Saxon*

July 31, 2013 by • Food, Uncategorized • 0 Comments

The Saxon has always been my venue of choice whenever I want to be wow’d. The level of opulence and attention to detail never fails to amaze me, and even if you’re just going for a drink on the terrace, you’ll be treated exactly the same as if you’re spending the week there. Jozi’s newest fine […]

You’re Invited to a Jozilicious Pamper Event

July 22, 2013 by • Uncategorized • 0 Comments

I had such a blast at the last #joziliciousmixer, that I’ve decided that Spring is too long a wait until the next one. I’ll still keep the mixers seasonal, but I’d like to have events occasionally too- exposing you to the very best jozi has to offer, from bars to spas, and organising a discounted […]
