Switched on ...

ZaZ and I were playing the Melissa and Doug Memory Game today (for the first time - while eating dinner) ... ZaZ was winning and she said:
'My brain is switched on hey Mom' (Shelly are those your words :)

Later I could not remember where the picture was, she says, 'Come on Mom - switch your brain on!'

I did have a picture of this BUT then tea split on my phone before I could blog it :(

Thanks Shelly for the GREAT education you are giving ZaZ - it is truly remarkable ...

The travelling pot!

Oh vey...we spent a WHOLE afternoon in the beautiful Midlands Meander looking for Enamel stuff (after seeing it @ this funny little coffee shop and being told that its @ a petrol station)

FINALLY @ 6pm we arrived @ the dodgy petrol station with security around it everywhere...we were SO excited to find enamel stuff (not sure why I was on such a mission for 'camping' wear - something about Romi's Mom having it etc) that we bought EVERY enamel item we could find...including this GIGANTIC POT!

This then went on my Dads truck from JHB - CT...from South Seas to The Atlantic (has NOT been used)...

It is now going to a creche in the Hout Bay Township - I hope they use it LOTS!

Good bye the travelling pot of memories - I will never forget that unique and great SA petrol station shop we found you in!

Zaza the activist...

While Lauren and I were setting up for the Colour theme...

Zaz broke into an activitist 'NO to cutting down the trees
Trees are needed for birds and for us to breath and for oxygen and we must take a deep breath and say thank you to the trees

Check out the anger on her face

Patience is a virtue...

I saw this denim jacket in Woolies 3 months ago...

I used my will power and I didn't buy it (but did take a pic of it)

Today - I was getting a latte @ woolies and what do I see on the sale rack - THE jacket! It was 50 percent off...(Even though the woolies staff said it was not on sale...I made them check the barcode) and I got an extra 15 percent because of my woolies card..SO - R105!

Never mind that I was late to fetch ZaZ from school, didn't get my latte...and the jacket JUST fits zaz around the tummy NOW...she WILL wear it EVERYDAY AND next year her tummy will be less :)
