On Friday I took a days leave to hang out with my friend Collette and her fiance Steven. They are such an awesome couple but because they live in Jo'burg, I don't see nearly enough of them. Colli and I have known each other since school and I am so excited to be her Maid of Honour when they tie the knot next year:) We surprised her with an early bridal shower on Saturday because she won't be back in our neck of the woods until the actual wedding. The theme was Alice in Wonderland so I made her this super cool Mad Hatter's hat to wear for the afternoon:
From the bridal shower we headed off to
Yossi’s in Davenport Road for her birthday dinner. Yossi’s is an awesome Morrocan restaurant which my
particular group of friends has a very long and happy history with! I wish I had taken a photo of it but I had
the most delicious Rose and Lime Mojito. I've developed a liking for Rose flavoured things. On Friday I had a Persian Rose Cordial which was really tasty and refreshing:
From dinner we headed to Live the Venue for
the Lark album launch. They are
such a phenomenal band and to watch them live is an experience. Inge Beckmann has a vocal range I would
die for, if I could sing to start with. The new album Gong is Struck is all
kinds of awesome and I’ll do a post on it later in the week. In the meantime, here is the link to their Myspace page. I highly recommend checking them out!
And finally today I went out for
unscheduled Wakaberry with my friend Shannon. Her mom is a master of wool and, after admiring a pair of
fingerless gloves she made for Shannon, today she surprised me with my own
pair! With little owls on them!!
And there you have it! I hope your weekends have been just as great:)
