Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Grateful for a day that looked like rain initially and was chilly, but cleared up to become sunny, at 21C; for a most lucky day of generosity bestowed upon me, receiving a delivery of Wagyu burger patties and a steak from Garth Angus of Wagyu Direct, for a tea treat and tons of info about joining Discovery Bank from Maki Chase at Schoon in Sea Point, for receiving a bottle of Merlot from Gary Peterson when I dropped off some of the patties, for a treat of a winetasting at Utopia Cape Town, loving The Valley Chardonnay, and for Utopia Chef Pavel asking me which dish I would like to eat….. choosing the kabeljou and scallops ❤️, making it a lovely Status meeting ; for collecting my Dinkel rolls; for a fabulous walk combining Camps Bay and Bakoven, and blessed with the most beautiful sunset, and for crossing over into 20300 Discovery points🙏; for managing to finish this post just in time, before we are Loadshedding at 20h00; for Minsky getting back safely after being out the whole night; and for being happy and healthy. 🙏💙 Continue reading →
