#26: FAV THINGS TO DO ON A SUNDAY

The 25th May-Photo-A-Day-in-June: 

"FAV THINGS TO DO ON A SUNDAY"

Sunday's are possibly my most favourite day after my Birthday Day of course as it is a day filled with all of my favourite things like:
  • Spending the whole day with Te
  • Adventuring around Jozi
  • Trying out new places
  • Drinking lots of coffee
  • Visiting our families
  • Watching a series or two - right now We are loving Downton Abby
  • Catching up on design work
And this Sunday was pretty spectacular as it just happens to be the day before my favourite kind of day! 

Today Te and I spent the day making and drinking coffee from our new Bialati  and frother set that we received from my mom for a joint birthday present and multi-tasked between working on the edit and grade of an Orpen Film Making Co. wedding video and our super fun wedding invitation. 

The Bialati 4 cup and frother is probably one of the most awesome and useful gift I have ever been given! We made an early morning coffee stop at 4th Avenue Roasters to purchase and grind our beans and then hurried home to test out our new toy.. 

The coffee was delicious and the 4 cup Bialati is perfect for us as Te prefers a stronger, shorter styled drink with little milk and more foam, where I am a classic single-shot cuppacino but picky on the foam kind of girl. The frother works wonderfully and creates the most silky smooth froth, just the way I like it!

 Since tomorrow I reach the half way to 50 mark and no one at work believes that the Mom-boss can be domesticated and find her way around the kitchen, she decided to make me cupcakes and banana bread like she did when we were younger for the office tomorrow. We spent a fun afternoon in the kitchen baking, reminicing and of course there was wedding talk. I even received a baking wound: cooling rack + high shelf = what goes up must come down... onto my eye. I now have a lovely bruise forming around my eye.

These look just like they did when we were kids.

It was so worth it as the cupcakes are scrumptious and I love how home made try look. I decided to experiment and baked Te and I each a special cupcake - a hidden jelly baby in the middle.   


My lovely MOH and her fiancé came for a visit, a cup cake and to see my expression when I opened my pressebt just to see if I Really liked it - and I did! And that is why she is my MOH! Thank-you Chlo and Kerim, so very spoilt!
