Izette Fourie (RIP)

I have been trying to process what has happened and it just has not sunk in...

I lost one of my closest friends (one of the three muskateers) yesterday morning.
She was an amazing person who touched my heart and soul.
We had ups and downs, but she was ALWAYS there no matter what.

You will be sorely missed my dear friend.
I know that you lived your life to the full and were on the right track, I know you are in a better place right now my friend.
I LOVE YOU LOTS AND YOUR MEMORY WILL LIVE ON FOREVER!

This is suited for ages 6 and under, so I do believe it would be appropriate for the occasion?

SONG FOR THE DAY

This is the song Nadine, Alex and myself sang so loudly on the BOAT TRIP :0) (Memories)

Mr Brightside - The Killers.

I'm coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his—chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

I just can’t look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside

I’m coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine….

I just can’t look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibi
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside

I never...
I never...
I never...

Braai Rules

 

Braai RULES

 

We will soon enter the summer and the Braai season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity, as it's the only type of cooking that a 'real' man will do, probably because there is an element of danger involved.

 

When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:

 

Routine...

 

(1)       The woman buys the food.

(2)       The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert.

(3)       The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.

 

Here comes the important part:

 

(4)       THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.

 

More routine....

(5)       The woman goes inside to organise the plates and cutlery.

(6)       The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he deals with the situation.

 

Important again:

 

(7)       THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.

 

More routine....

 

(8)         The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.

(9)       After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.

 

And most important of all:

 

(10)      Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.

(11)      The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off." And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women....
