Things that made me smile this month
- The breathtaking Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition at Iziko South African Museum. It’s on until March – go see it. They also have a Darwin in the Cape exhibit.
- Wandering around the rest of the museum and feeling just like a kid again.
- Two-for-one cocktails with Kate at Neighbourhood, discussing life, love, in-laws and the vagaries of advertising.
- A phonecall from MSF to thank me for my donation and keep me informed of their work in Haiti.
- Funny holiday photos I hadn’t seen yet.
- Having a crazy night out with Master Rawlinson and company.
- Saying sorry for something I should have apologised about ages ago.
- Teaching a beautiful redhead toddler how to get all the foam out of her babycchino cup.
- The same little girl asking for bits of my omelette breakfast, the sweet cherry tomatoes in particular (she obviously has good taste).
- Talks with the ‘Byn, a brilliant woman who I admire and respect more than any other.
- Fruit & Flowers, Thrupps, fresh fish, braai, swimming and meeting many incredible people in Joburg.
- Futurama dolls. Unfortunately they belong to Chris and I couldn’t distract him long enough to steal Bender.
- Back rubs, hugs and kisses. X.
- My husband stroking my forehead when I was ill.
- A great annual review with my Creative Director.
- Finding out that my colleagues are a bit scared of me and think I’m good at what I do.
- Sea of Love by Cat Power (and the rest of the Juno soundtrack).
- My mother’s face when she opened her birthday gift.

silly question, but where did you get that pic of the Futurama figures? Would love to get one, or two!;)

They belong to a friend and he got them from someone who ordered them online. I think. Consulting the book of Google would be your best bet. They are damn cool.

Thanx:) I’ll have a look around, I have a weakness for shiny, brightly painted things

Was such an epic evening out with you guys. Has to be one of my highlights too so far. Not so sure about the next morning though, have felt better.I mean who would have known that gin, champagne, beer, wine, and vodka would go so well at the time, but be so lethal the next day.
