  1. So far the garden is decorative... the previous owners rented it out, and the tenants did not give the garden any love. There is a lawn, with garden beds around two walls. I want to make the beds deeper, and add another bed against the 3rd wall. I have bought some herbs, aubergine plants, chili plants, a lemon tree and a lime tree, but have not planted it yet. The soil quality is not the best in the area, because it is so close to the beach, (1,45km), so the garden shop suggested I add a lot of compost and enrich the soil especially for herbs, vegetables and fruit trees. sooooo I need to still do that. but I will get to it, just going to need a bit of help

  5. That I live to see the day, my man! If you're doing spinach stuffing then try it with a bit of ricotta cheese, like they do on the gnocchi.

  7. It's good to see you posting. Your presence has been sorely missed. Your place seems cozy, comfortable, and efficient. Investing in property is a great idea and with the money you are saving your can more easily secure your financial future. I'm curious, is your garden decorative or do you have any vegetables planted?

  10. I have recently moved into my own place that I bought. Just about 30km from Stellenbosch where I previously lived is a bigger town, falls Under City of Cape Town, called Somerset West. and here is where I get confused. Gordons Bay, Strand and Somerset are supposed to be three different cities/towns... but they are so interconnected, I don't know if there is even a border between the 3...? I live in a security complex called De Velde Lifestyle estate. I was fortunate enough to get a ground floor apartment, with a little garden, 3 bedrooms, 2 parking spots right outside the flat, 2 bathrooms, living area and kitchen(a bit small for my liking, but so far it has not been a problem), we make it work with clever planning and using vertical space. My Boyfriend moved in with me. He saves on rent R7800.00 per month, and even though the distance is further to his work, he is actually using less fuel because he can drive at a more constant speed, less traffic and traffic lights, he also gets to and from work faster than when he lived in Stellenbosch. I am a bit further away from work and use a bit more fuel, but save lots on Accommodation. about R8800.00 per month that I paid rent in Stellenbosch for a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom, same size kitchen... so I am smiling. Aerial view of the complex the same plan for the flat that I bought, third bedroom is a study and snake cages are there. The complex has a pool, a gym, a lifestyle centre with a library, cinema room that you need to book in advance, a restaurant, conference room, media centre with free wifi, and a cellar/venue that you can book for private functions, a small soccer field/court, a squash court, and walking/running trails around and through out the complex.

  11. I believe that the High Elf performed regularly as the prima ballerina in the Thylysium ballet, before she decided to attend the academy. Here, just above, we are privileged to witness her performing, "la danse joyeuse du haut elfe."
