Seafront at Strand.

Taking life at face value – the wind, the rain, the hailstorm – and then the quietness throughout the night, not a single sound, and the next day with sunshine throughout – is that okay? How does one approach life? Do I look at things as they appear to be taken for what they are? What agendas are there, if any?

Betty’s Bay beach after the storm.

Brunch on the deck.

A plate of steamed Pak Choi, steamed sugar snap peas, fried exotic mushrooms on a bed of creamed potato and sweet potato puree and governor beans with pepperonis, with a Charlie Trotter inspired sauce on the side.

Having had a day of utter perfection and enjoying the company of a dear visitor, Colleen prepared a dish of utter perfection.

With love.
