Made with {Love}

Breakfast in bed, it’s the easiest way to make someone feel special! Treat your mom this year with an extra-special take on “Breakfast in bed”. We sometimes overlook the impact of a simple, yet thoughtful action and its ability to fill someone’s heart with joy! This year, send mom off with a full tummy and a tiny piece of your heart.

Heart Shaped Breakfast:

Image

To make this lovely breakfast all you need is a piece of bread, an egg, a cookie cutter (or a knife will do), some butter and a pan.

Steps:

1) Cut a heart shaped hole in the middle of the slice of bread.

2) Heat the pan over a medium heat. Swirl a little bit of butter around the pan before placing the slice of bread as well as the heart cut-out onto the pan.

3) Now carefully crack the egg into the middle of the slice of bread.

4) Next, sprinkle the egg with salt and pepper (to your own liking) and cook until the bread is brown on the bottom.

5) Now you can either flip the slice of bread (like one would a pancake) and further cook the other side, or place the whole pan in the oven until the egg is cooked to your liking and the bread is browned. If you choose to finish it in the oven then it would be preferable to brush the top of the bread lightly with a bit of melted butter.

Image

This can be served with the small heart-cut-out on top or placed on the side. You can add anything to the plate, bacon, sausages, fried tomato, whatever mom loves best! 

If mom has a bit of a sweet tooth, some freshly baked waffles or flapjacks will be a perfect alternative! A great tip to use here is to use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to make that stack of flapjacks / waffles extra delightful. Remember to include mom’s favourite toppings!

If you are pressed for time and can’t make a full breakfast try adding these simple touches to mom’s everyday: a small bunch of flowers (a single flower will be just as effective) or write a short note on mom’s spoon. Lastly, never underestimate the power of those tiny white marshmallows ;)

Riebeek Valley Olive Festival!

ImageIt’s weekend! If you have no plans yet and are in the Cape Town area make sure to make your way to the Riebeek Valley olive Festival! These quaint towns come alive as they showcase only the best that they have to offer you in terms of food, wines and olives, yum!

The olive festival focuses on this popular fruit (yes it’s a fruit!!) during this time, exhibiting the diversity of olives. Visitors to the Olive Emporium can stock up on a great variety of olives, olive oils, preserves, tapenades as well as a selection of olive-based beauty products!

Amongst the many new activities at this year’s festival will be a country fair and a fresh goods market. Greek kalmata olives accentuate a wine’s bitterness so balance the flavours by mixing it up with a full-flavoured fruity wine such as Brampton’s Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot!

An R80.00 ‘passport’ will allow you entry to the town based marquees as well as a free tasting of olives and is valid for the entire weekend of the festival! These passports can be purchased online at www.webtickets.co.za or on the day at participating establishments. Make a weekend of it and book into one of the Valley’s many establishments!

For more information go to www.riebeekvalley.info/ or e-mail olivefestival@gmail.com or alternatively phone 082 909 1116/ 084 207 3820

Clever Chalk Calendar!

This Chalk calendar is a clever, fun, simple yet extremely effective way to keep all your appointments and memo’s in one place! It looks fantastic, takes up no space  and is easy to clean! You don’t have to buy calendars every year because you’ll have a calendar with the relevant days on it! It’s as easy as painting a few squares and rectangles onto a wall with Blackboard paint!

Tips:

*Measure out the blocks and make sure that they are even and equal

*Use tape to ensure straight lines when painting your blocks!

*Choose the placement wisely, preferably in a kitchen or office area where a calendar would be useful

*Have fun with it, be creative, make it your own; if you want bubbles or circles or flowers instead of blocks then simply paint the motif you would enjoy!
