Here’s a simple toast recipe for those mornings

Here’s a simple toast recipe for those mornings when time is limited 📝

I honestly love toast, whether it’s dressed to the nines with all the thangs or just with a thin layer of nut butter.. I’m easy to please hehe #fortheloveofbread 🍞

Apple Toast with Hazelnut Cacao Spread ~

2 slices @barrytheartisanbaker sourdough
2 tbsp @herbivore_earthfoods hazelnut cacao spread
1 @woolworths_sa pink lady apple ~ our absolute fave!!
1 tbsp @therefillerysa mixed seeds

Toast the sourdough to your liking and smother with hazelnut cacao spread. Top with thinly sliced apple and sprinkle with seeds. If you have a really sweet tooth, drizzle with maple syrup. SIDE NOTE: slightly toasting the seeds changes the game but #aintnobodygottimeforthat today 🤩

Have a beautiful day 🌻

Sometimes self-care is moving your body and eating

Sometimes self-care is moving your body and eating right. Sometimes it’s spending time with those that matter the most or taking a long nap. And sometimes it’s switching all devices off for an entire weekend to just be present. It’s honestly whatever you need to soothe your mind + body + soul ✨

What a magical weekend away in the bush with family and very little screen time.

Feeling so content and grateful for all the beautiful gifts this life has to offer, sometimes we just need to shut down and reconnect 💛

Have a beautiful Sunday 🌻

Just over here doing what makes me happy 🍉
~ which is mainly eating and spending time with loved ones hehe.

While the online space is also my “work place” I love choosing to share everyday things that honestly just make me happy.

Something that has been coming up a lot for me is choosing to create out of joy and not out of pressure as well as choosing to work smarter rather than harder.

While this is easier said than done, it’s something that requires a lot of discipline + dedication and more so, 100% believing in myself ~ which at times is also easier said than done.

With that said, here’s to doing A LOT more of the things that make me feel happy 💛

Lots of love 🌻
