Dove 100 Colours of Africa - invisible anti-perspirant || Review

03:09:00 0 Comments
Good Morning! 

It's Summer time and nearly the end of the year! It's the festive season and that also means lots of parties that you are invited to attend - right!? 

You dont have to break of a sweat in the freshness department, since I have you covered to stay fresh and confident the whole day! 


Dove 100 Colours of Africa | Invisible dry anti-perspirant spray

I have tried the Dove anti-perspirant out for some time now and I can assure you that you would definitly stay dry and fresh the whole day and, since the Dove anti-perspirant contains a ¼ moisturising cream your underarms would feel softer for longer.  No need to worry about any white marks or any residue on your clothes. 

I was so impressed with the Dove anti-perspirant that I had given my Mom a bottle to try for herself, since she likes to stay with one brand that she have used for years and now she uses Dove on a daily basis! 

Just remember that you have to shake the bottle well before using it, otherwise you might have residue on your clothes. 

Stay fresh!

Homemade Christmas Cookies - Renewed Christmas Tradition In Our House

23:22:00 0 Comments
It's December! 
Can you really believe it - time really starts to fly now...

Sometimes I wonder where on earth I come from!? I'm one of those that like to bake Christmas cookies in my own kitchen. I know that you can buy all sort of cookies in the shop, but where are the fun in that? I like to take part in the process. To be creative...

I remember when I was little girl I used to take a cookie cutter and cut the cookies from the dough that my Mom just to make and then when she's not looking I would eat a tiny bit of the raw cookie dough - yummy! Please tell me I wasn't the only one!?!? 

Homemade Christmas Cookies - a new tradition

It's been a long time, since I have made Christmas cookies.  I wanted something different this year than the normal star, moon, and the square etc.  

The Baking Tin Christmas Cookie Cutters


I have surfed the Internet for Christmas cookie cutters and I have found that The Baking Tin  have some great Christmas cookie cutters. I went on Black Friday and I was lucky to have received 10% discount on the ones that they still had in store for Christmas. 

There are a few that was sold out way before I was there. I would have liked to have purchased the Candy Cane, Christmas Tree and the Lamb.  Maybe I would be lucky next year, but know that I do know they sell it I would buy them early in the year. 

I know that I want to bake Choc Chip and Peanut cookies, but I still have to decided what other cookies I want to bake. We have such a lot of Peanut butter so when I have looked in the recipe books I've seen a recipe for a Peanut cookie I want to test that one out. 

Once I have  decided and baked the cookies I'm going to bake I will post the recipe's for you guys to bake yourself. 

Do you also prefer the Christmas themed cutters or doesn't it matter to you?  What are your favourite Christmas cookies to bake?  I would love to know. 

Be blessed,

Good Morning! 

It's the weekend! It's time to kick off those shoes and to unwind...right?  What would you like to do in your me time moment?  

Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolate with Vanillia Cream and Oreo Cookie Pieces

My ideal unwind time would be where I can be totally alone and no electronics around me and just to listen to the soft sounds of water that are flowing from the water feature. 

Secondly to lie down on the bed enjoying a lovely chocolate from Cadbury DairyMilk with vanilla cream and Oreo pieces that are melting on my tongue...

I like the subtle flavour of Bubblegum that come through when you are eating these. Would make excellent DIY smores - a lovely late night snack or even in your cup of White Hot Chocolate!

Oreo Cookie Covered With Chocolate

I remember like it was just yesterday when I was still very young that my Aunt have introduced me to Oreo.  To be honest I didn't liked it at all, but little did I know you had to dunk in milk to really enjoy this Oreo cookie.

Last year I have noticed that some people went totally gaga over this new enrobed Oreo cookie.  I didn't get what the hype was over this at all!

Start believing

Just the other day I went to Spur for breakfast. It’s a real treat for me and while I was waiting for my meal to arrive I have notice the sugar sachets on the table.

So I decided to take one and at the back of the sachet is an interesting quote printed on them from famous poets at the back. I have read each one, but this one stood out for me the most.
