Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Last Sunday it got up to 33 degrees but as I took Saturday off from cooking due to the heat I had a lot of cooking to do. I popped a small gammon in the slow cooker. Usually I cook my gammon in coke, brown sugar and pineapple but none of those are allowed with …
As always the full moon cycle triggers chaos. I remember from when I worked in the hospital as a radiographer that a full moon brings out the crazies, that is why you call them "lunatics". The pull of the moon on the body also results in an increase in birth rates. Basically the hospital would …
It seems Summer may properly be on the way, or that Spring has properly sprung? Whatever is happening I'm loving the warmth & sunshine! All of the greenery has flourished, the roadsides and gardens blooming. It's been fabulous to go to work in bright light and come home with a few hours of sunlight …
I can't believe 2 weeks have gone by since my birthday celebrations. Work is still intense even with my hours reduced. I've been slack about keeping to my determination to keep cooking at home. We missed shopping 2 weekends and Caitlin was away. We were rather disorganized but we thought as our resident pescatarian was …
I always think one should spoil themselves on their birthday, especially if no one else is going to. This year both my husband and my daughter were going away and were not here for my birthday. My other daughter Lily works late so I decided to organize my own itinerary of happiness, starting with booking …
I have no idea whether George Ezra fans have some collective term for themselves ala Gaga and her Little Monsters, but if they don't this is as good as any. It has a slight religious adorarative quality about it. George doesn't seem to be huge in SA, I mentioned to several people that I was …
This week flew by even though I've reduced my hours at work. I've been so good about cooking every night until the weekend (no way I'm cooking all weekend). The Chicken dish I made last Sunday night turned out beautifully somewhat to my surprise. It was a complete invention and I worried the coconut milk would overwhelm …
Recently I've had conversations with several people about self worth or related topics. Some people need to feel emotionally rewarded in some way by their job, for example being in healthcare would give you a feeling at the end of your day that you helped an ill or recovering person. Some people need to see …
I was so organized this week. I cut down my overtime with an aim to bill only 45 hours a week. Having shopped on the weekend meant I could create a dinner for us every night and no need for take aways! As Monday was a public holiday I had cooked Eggplant Parmesan in advance, …
Winter is well and truly here. It's been peeking through sporadically but it's rained and been so cold all week. It's impossible to use an umbrella due to the hectic winds in Cape Town. Even with a hooded raincoat one gets drenched getting to and from the car. Winter is not pleasant. And then we …
