Thank you Pick 'n Pay and the Freshly Blogged team!

The past weekend I have spent pondering where I am going with all the hipe of the online freshly blogged challenge. I did realise that my personal life has definately suffered due to this addition to my already "full" life. I will not go into detail of what my day consists of, as most of the "fairer sex" know how to multi-task. My wonderful aunt ("sister and mentor")helped me put my life back into perspective yesterday..... My business, family and my own personal health and well-being definately do come first... I started this blog soon after the passing of my late mother. We did not spend a day apart....so on her passing, a huge void was left in my life, hence the food for my soul and sharing of her mouth-watering recipes .... Whilst I feel so flattered about being chosen as one of the top foodie bloggers in South Africa, I merely cannot give the project my all without compensating my "day-job"! Pick 'n Pay, I want to take this opportunity of paying homage to you for believing in me and more especially, Vanessa, from the Freshly blogged team who took so much time to phone me and try and convince me that I am special,unique and definately still wanted as a competitor!! Your spekboom will always remind me of this honour. This acolade will be one for my memory bank! I am truly humbled that my little blog was recognised. Shel xx

  2. Hello M :)
    Yes you are someone I love to share with...
    I prefer my blog to be a personal journey for my family and friends to enjoy!
    I so loved being a contestant but time is not on my side...
    my blog is my happy place and I was pressurizing myself...
    I have a good old South African recipe almost prepared and will upload by the end of the week
    It's something different for my overseas friends...so x'ng fingers I will be able to get it together tonight!
    It's cold here...hope you are enjoying the sun and good health!
    Take care
    Shel
