Former silly goose turned ungovernable. Jo’burg-based. 🇿🇦 🪿 treats: cake, gin, yarn. Whatever you’ve heard about me is a lie. I’m way worse. Guaranteed inappropriate.

Finally got my knitting stuff mostly organised. Just trying to figure out what to do with the DPNs (resisting the urge to trash them because I really hate working on them).
Interchangeable needle tips, cables, and several sets of long straight needles.

Hahaha! Video QT took a pic of my neighbour’s plate and asked if he could take one of mine too (she’s having the lamb shank; I ordered the sole). There was no palette cleansing sorbet.

Herself with some bubbly. By the time I've made the walk back to my car all the alcohol will be gone. Probably not the best way to break fast. Or maybe it is?

Oh, you know. Just an entitled man threatening to kill women he considers beneath him in a women’s powder room because they apparently rebuffed his advances. In the city where a suspected serial killer has at least nine victims, only four identified.

No, YOU’VE got a thing for sharks. *because a former colleague I didn’t gel with (and who was very upset that despite her best efforts I didn’t warm to her) told me there’s no need to be sharkastic. Like bitch, have you met me?

Podiums 67NAKED PEACH
Valtter Bottas and the Naked Peach gin cocktail share a refreshingly unapologetic energy. On 11 May 2022, Bottas famously posted an uncaptioned photo of his bare behind soaking in a stream in Aspen, Colorado, and the internet, unsurprisingly, lost its collective mind. That moment of carefree confidence fits perfectly with a cocktail built around ripe peach and gin: playful, a little cheeky, and completely comfortable in its own skin. When I came across the Naked Peach recipe, I knew immediately where it belonged, because sometimes the pairing just writes itself.
One large ripe peach (cut the peach in half, remove the stone, roast until soft.
1 teaspoon light brown sugar
15 ml lime juice
60 ml gin
A pinch of lime zest 15 ml rosemary syrup
Chilled lemonade

Globally relevant.
8 Essential Tips To Avoid Becoming Part Of South Africa's GBV Statistics. 1.IF YOU SEE A WOMAN JOGGING ALONE, LEAVE HER ALONE
She is exercising. You do not need to accompany her, follow her, slow down beside her or find out where she is going.
2. AVOID BEING ALONE WITH WOMEN IF YOU CANNOT BEHAVE YOURSELF AROUND THEM
If you cannot be trusted when there are no witnesses make sure another person is present or remove yourself from the situation.
3. TELL SOMEONE WHERE YOU ARE GOING BEFORE LEAVING THE HOUSE
If your behaviour has ever made women feel unsafe, sharing your live location could be useful to the police.4. IF SOMEONE REJECTS YOU, ACCEPT THE REJECTION
You are allowed to be embarrassed, disappointed or upset. You are not allowed to turn rejection into a criminal investigation.
5. IF YOUR PARTNER WANTS TO LEAVE, LET THE RELATIONSHIP END
A breakup does not require permission from both parties.
6. AVOID EXCESSIVE ALCOHOL IF DRINKING
MAKES YOU VIOLENT
If everyone around you has to become more cautious whenever you drink, the safety precaution may need to be taken by you.7. IF YOUR FRIEND THREATENS OR ABUSES WOMEN, REPORT HIM
Waiting until somebody dies before admitting that "he always had anger problems" is not helpful.
8. MOST IMPORTANTLY, DO NOT MURDER ANYONE
This remains more effective than asking women to stop jogging, walking alone, going out at night, dating, drinking, wearing certain clothes, trusting people or otherwise participating in ordinary life.
