Girlfriends and coffee


Boyfriends and husbands have come and gone, tears have been shed and celebrations planned, pregnancies anticipated, children have been born, money comes and money goes-  but if you're really lucky your girlfriends stay the same.

In the old days it was a daily ritual, now 20 years on...ok, maybe a teensy bit more... we're fortunate if it's every 3 months. It doesn't really matter though, it could have been yesterday, everyday or last year- we simply start where we left off.

Sharing, commiserating, celebrating, solid advice given and taken-all honed by years of familiarity and wisdom, but let's not forget that other necessity........ a delicious dose of good old-fashioned juicy gossip!


Haas in Rose street, Bo-Kaap- a fabulous place for cosy winter coffee chats

    1. I know- it's pretty much how I look if I don't get my morning coffee!

  2. You even make the rain desirable.

    Beautiful pics and yes I too want that cup.

    Maybe you have a side business selling them to Americans?

    1. Jane- I was tempted to pocket the cup, but alas I'd like to return.

      However, there are things for sale in the shop, so I'm going to do some investigating! x

  3. That last picture of the rain on the window came close to making me cry. I don't know my home anymore. I haven't seen winter in Cape Town for over ten years.
