March InstaCrush

By Crushland @crushland

Red Velvet at Melissa’s in Constantia Village.

A walk on the beach and playing ball after Sunday lunch last week (in my case, a snooze).

My birthday boys <3

Tasneem’s 21st at Primi V&A

A lovely day at the Kirstenbosch market, sold three paintings! But the best part is chilling in my camp chair, painting and enjoying the market buzz (and the visitors x).

I walked into a freebie galore on Tuesday, as many Estee Lauder foundations as you can find in your color. The La Mer was also a freebie, love!

Lots of green tea (and wasabi nuts)

Strange but pretty veg at China Town.

Uthmaan’s presents all ready and waiting the night before

I found a sweet little sweet shop in Capricorn Park who supply Woolies and Melissa’s. Delicious marshmallows, fudge, taffy, honeycomb, candy, etc. The packet of mallows was 50c! With real bits of vanilla pod.

I did this.

I made these very traditional old-school cupcakes for Miki to take to school for his birthday. I usually make fancy piped swiss meringue but these were such a treat for a change.

Long sleep after a long race!

Post-race 3 course breakfast: muesli, banana, yoghurt/cottage cheese omelet, herbed mackerel/hot cross bun and cheese.
