Spring Snapshots

Spring has arrived in South Africa, bringing along with it massive thunderstorms and the tiny budding of flowers. The jacaranda trees are in full bloom all over our city. Simply gorgeous!



Our pastor's family visited us a few weeks back, creating smiles on many a face. Love these munchkins!
 
Baking with Ti-man. His expressions are priceless~
Tried my hand at Artisan bread. Definitely a keeper. 

Just before Dad's trip to Australia (next post), he treated us all to dinner out after church. Needing a bit of exercise after all that delicious food, we strolled through the mall, taking in all the Christmas decor. Most shops in our country close up at 6 (other than restaurants, of course) for security reasons. Anywho, while we waited on our meal, I graded a couple correspondence courses. I didn't realize that the waiter was watching till he asked, "What is the curse of alcohol?" (title of one course). Open door, anyone? You bet :)

  2. Ditto, Nina, on those gorgeous spring trees. I am a lurker. :O) Picked up following your blog from Nina. Always very encouraged when you post. Would love your recipe for that yummy looking artisan bread. God bless you. Loretta Smith, Hebrews 10:24

    1. Ohh! I love meeting new people ;o). Thanks for the note. Here's the link to the bread. I did double to recipe, as my dutch oven is double the size of hers. Really must whip up another loaf...Hmm.
