Green palette

A walk in the veld.


On a clear day

On a clear day you can we how we are cluttering the environment with buildings, roads and cars.

I went to see the Wonderboom in Pretoria. What a disappointment! Firstly, the Wonderboom is no longer a wonderful thing. Once was, as you can see from the photographs on display at the entrance. Die boom wonder self wat hy nog hier doen. Argh, as if that wasn't bad enough they have built a shopping mall directly opposite. You can climb the hill or kopie if you like but you won't get in touch with nature because you can only hear the cars and the impatient hooting of Saturday morning shoppers.
Someone, somewhere must have challenged the idea of the mall opposite this heritage site, but no problem, this was overcome by naming it an urban mountain park.

Mop it up with fresh rolls

Got this recipe from a friend. I did adapt it a little, sorry. But I followed the instruction to eat it with fresh Portuguese rolls. It was delicious, thanks.
