rainy day cuppa..


So, I’m all about a good cup of coffee, who can blame me really. So when I sit down at a cafe and order a cappuccino, and it’s bad, I’m usually like, ok that was a crappy cup of coffee. On the other hand, when I order a cappuccino, and it completely blows me away, that’s all I can seem to speak about. So when traipsing around Kloof Street looking for a coffee shop to house me for the morning (I was temporarily homeless), Arnolds seemed like a pretty good choice. I'd been there before but never had their coffee. What a mistake that was. Now I’m not a connoisseur of fine coffee but I know a good cuppa when I see one and theirs was really great. It didn’t taste like dish water and was A: hot B: strong and C: actually had some flavour!

C(ape) Town...

so the month has finally arrived where i get to spend a whopping 5 weeks in only the best place ever. Cape Town. Not only do i just get to laze around, and do all the touristy stuff...but i get to work alongside Haldane Martin, A bespoke South African furniture designer. Its been a week and already i'v immersed myself in good food, wine and friends. I could get used to this.
