Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
There has been a lot of rain and flooding in the northern areas of South Africa. We have had some temperamental weather down at the coast but nothing like they are dealing with in the north.The impact of this nationally is that we are having load shedding again. For those non-SA peeps, this is where …

I love Africa. I love the melting pot of many cultures, the beauty of both the rolling grasslands and the rocky mountains. Africa is a beautiful continent. It is also a place of violence and kindness. Africa is a place of vast dichotomies. Chasms so wide they cannot always be breached.Yesterday my domestic goddess Cordelia …
Our dinner for the new George Escapee Book Club was held at Ragafellows last Tuesday night. We were supposed to be 7 in total, but only 5 of us could make it – but the noise we made was enough for a dozen. We had a late kick off, and the owner, the lovely Julie …
This week is going to be such fun. I have a dinner tonight at Ragafellows with the George Ladies which has now morphed into an online book club of sorts. (More books I won’t have time to read? Lovely.) I just join for the chat and the wine and the camaraderie. It is nice to …

I must say I am not sorry to see the end of 2013. Maybe it's true that 13 is unlucky? We have had such loss. My children's childhood nanny and 2nd Mom/Grandmom passed away, my stepfather passed away, my son lost 2 kittens, this week a bird died in my care and then today I …
Like the proverbial fat kid at the candy store we have been peering through the windows of Ragafellows for weeks, watching the changes to the familiar old Cape Dutch building which has been a part of Hout Bay Main Road for the 20 years I have been visiting Hout Bay. It's been transformed completely, stripped …
Tourist season has arrived in Cape Town. The traffic is busy, the shops more crowded, and the weather is fabulous. We have had several new restaurants pop up. I hope they all succeed as it's lovely to have so many choices as we eat out a lot. This is a 3 day weekend in SA …
