Spring

Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities

Forget about your worries and your strife

I mean the bare necessities

Old Mother Nature’s recipes

That brings the bare necessities of life

……….says Jungle Book’s Baloo the Bear 

Spring has sprung, so here are our Top 5 ‘bare necessities’ for the start of a new season:

1. Open the windows, pull up the blinds and spring-clean your house (and don’t forget to spring clean your mind at the same time).
2. Plant some colourful flowers and herbs; these will not only make your garden look pretty, but will make your food taste great too.
3. Take a trip up the West Coast to marvel at the flowers and breathe in the fresh spring air.
4. Have a picnic in Kirstenbosch Gardens or dinner and concert at Silvertree Restaurant.
5. Buy a new recipe book and braai something you haven’t tried before.
