Alyssa is obsessed with all things Barbie at this point in her life. From playing with Barbie, to watching Barbie movies and reading Barbie stories -she is hooked. Its honestly the best thing to see, as it literally allows me to go back to my childhood and just have fun with it too.
I was so excited when we were asked to review a product from the Barbie estate range recently and couldn’t wait to show Alyssa.

Could this have been the longest week of the year?
Well, it certainly felt that way and so I’ve been looking forward to this weekend. So much so, that I decided to put this post together and share some of the things I look forward to this weekend.
In fact, I have a jam packed weekend but I’ll just share a few things on my list.
Mark your calendar!
Four Paarl wine producers are celebrating the annual waterblommetjie season during the Waterblommetjie Festival on Saturday, 1 September, from 09h00 till 16h00. This indigenous edible flower is only in season during late winter and early spring and will be showcased in a variety of ways during a fun-filled day.
Boland Cellar, Domaine Brahms, Rhebokskloof Wine Estate and Windmeul Cellar are located within a 5km radius, which makes it easy for festival-goers to visit all four participating wineries. Each venue has its own signature waterblommetjies dishes, fantastic wines and amazing entertainment.
A couple of weeks ago, I got a taste of what the festival will have in store when we visited the participating wineries and I can promise you that there’ll be something for the whole family! From water-infused gin to waterblommetjie ice-cream, you are in for a real treat.
