I was going to say launch, but with that wicked punch, endless rows of pink bubbles.... and don't get me started on the sublime pork pate- it really was a very good party.
WIth The Book lounge in Roeland street as the perfect venue, our
fabulous and now famous Marie from '66 square feet' reigned supreme last night.
I
would describe the book to you in all it’s delicious detail- but they’re gone- yes, all of them.....snatched up even faster than those delicious morsels of crispy pork rind!
I
can tell you that everyone was there and we loved the question and answer session with the vivacious Sam Woulidge of Confessions of a hungry woman fame.
Whispers overheard amongst the books ....'so thoughtful', 'captivating', 'intelligent', 'witty' - and as you can see Marie signed all those books as if she were born to do it.
Off to Kalahari.net to secure my copy - .now I just need it signed...,,
drive by- drive home |
Look at that crowd! So thrilled to see the goddess so well received in her native land.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures as always.

DeleteHonoured that you posted about the book party. I miss your posts, Karen. They are my Cape Town fix. It was lovely to see you and I loved your winecoolers, erm, punch bowls. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteIt takes you climbing on a plane and flying all the way over here to get a post out of me! kxx
DeleteKaren!!!!! So nice to see you again. I was lucky enough to win Marie's book from a giveaway that Jane from Small but Charming had a couple of months ago and I just love it. Don't stay away so long.
ReplyDeleteHey Amelia! I know, it's been unmanageably busy this side, but I think I have everything under control now.......(should never have said that!) kx
