She got that cakecakecakecake


Please look at this specimen of a rainbow cake above. This makes me well and truly happy. Only thing is, I've been contemplating getting back into the healthy eating vibe since the Festive season has ended. (Note 'contemplating' and not very much actual healthy eating has occurred) I have been drinking lots of water though...that's something right? :p 

Anyhow, back to the cake. I work for Ackermans which is one of the biggest value retailers in SA. It's been a pretty awesome learning experience for me since joining back in 2015, as I had never worked in a retail environment, and had no idea how 'on it' one had to be in this industry. And here I thought online marketing, events and publishing was cutthroat and deadline driven. Lol.

Anyhow, the department I work in is the Ladieswear buying division and we recently reached the milestone of '1 million ladies t-shirts sold'. This is quite an achievement as you can imagine, and the Buying Director spoilt us with some of that luffly cake you see above AND OH LOOK A RED VELVET CHEESECAKE BELOW TOO:


The best thing you can do to reward hard work from a department of women, is to buy them cake. You'll get your results every time.

Guess I'll be putting that healthy eating on hold for now. Cos I'm about to go ham on this.

'Work hard, get cake.'

Hair

I don't need to go into detail about the endless woe females face, to tame the mane. It's something most of us (males included) are aware can be a...complicated, sensitive affair.  Billions are made annually to provide women with hair care products and services to cater to their every hair desire, be it styling, colour, texture, extensions etc. Now anybody can have literally any hairstyle they want, given they have the cash to pay for it, of course. Ain't nothing for free, especially not when it comes to women's hair and beauty. It's like, the opposite of free. (i.e. It's KAK expensive.) I've had a long, arduous journey with the harriets the good Lord above blessed me with. And I don't mean to sound ungrateful for what I have...but DANG NAMMIT... has it been tough to manage at times. See, I have naturally curly hair-  masses of it- which grows at the frikkin' speed of light. People have complimented me on my hair for as long as my memory goes back ...

Nicey nicey shoe shoe

Shoes, man??  Such a lovely, shiny word that conjures up fuzzy, fluffy, warm, happy feelings inside us all☺ I think the thing about it (besides there being hundreds of styles to suit every possible need and desire), is that no matter how much weight one may pick up, your shoe size will remain more or less the same. Unlike with clothing, you won't have to face the dreaded fitting-room (kill me please) with the unforgiving mirrors and fluorescent lighting that no dimple can escape- silently mocking you for having to take one or two sizes up this time. Because McDonalds. Shoes are everything though❤ And although we love them, men and women alike, shoe shopping is definitely more of a woman's thing. Most guys I know would order their desired pair online for the rest of their lives if possible and many even prefer their partners to do the shopping for them ( Ohey Marc ☺). Women can spend hours at a mall just fitting and flitting along from store to store, not even necessaril...

Busy and TIRED. (Ramblings of a Mombie)

Image
I never, ever thought I could be this tired in my LIFE. I mean, I knew having a kid would totally change my life, and it has in soooo many positive ways. I do however miss the times of sleeping in whole days when I felt like doing so. As it goes, people always tell you to enjoy the days of uninterrupted sleep before babies, and while that is almost physically impossible in the last months of pregnancy due to the discomfort levels, I wish I'd somehow just forced myself to do so. It's not all bad though, baby boy slept well for the first few months of life, but then teething struck and that was it for long sleeping stretches on his behalf, thank you very much. It's no wonder the term  'Mombie aka Mom Zombie' became a thing. I am literally functioning on maybe 3 hours of uninterrupted sleep at night and glorious ❤coffee❤. And all the comfort food my mouth can handle at one time (not surprisingly, a whole hang of alot). Which means I've gained a substantial amou...
