Motto for the moment

"Always keep a bottle of champagne in the fridge for special occasions. Sometimes the special occasion is that you’ve got a bottle of champagne in the fridge." - Hester Browne

She said yes, of course.


It’s Monday… what an amazing weekend… but before I get to that, my first few posts need to be fairly retrospective. As I said, so many fabulous things happened last week, I need to get them down so that I can move into real time.
Last weekend, I spent a fairy-tale weekend in Franschhoek, my favourite weekend getaway spot. My man and I were invited to a 5-star escape, with all the spoiling’s. A gorgeous hotel room at Mont Rochelle, and just about all the food and bubbly two people can consume in a lifetime. After a 4-course meal at Reuben’s on Friday and a sumptuous cheese soufflé at Mange Tout for brekkie on Saturday, we headed to the Country Kitchen for a wine tasting. This was followed by a stroll down to the “love tree” (a name we gave the large tree at the Mont Rochelle picnic site a few years back on our first weekend in Franschhoek). Overlooking the gorgeous dam, my man popped the question…perfect place, perfect moment, perfect man. so in love!
