In anticipation of…

Posted by: fracas on March 12 @ 6:56 pm

I can’t wait unti May 27th….the release date of Sex and the City II!! As a self-proclaimed SATC gal, this date is holy to me. In the meantime, to get a well needed fix of my fav serie, I am doing a re-run of the episodes and the last movie with Victoria. Victoria is in [...]

Salsa de Lux Party @ Club Fiera

Posted by: fracas on January 17 @ 12:09 pm

At 7.30 Stephen arrived. I’d had a long soak in my bath and was red as a lobster in my face, but Stephen did a great job toning it down. 2 hours later (yep it takes ages to fix me up!) I had transformed from just an ordinary mum to Hollywood Starlet. I raided the [...]

Salsa fashion

Salsa dancing was great! Although we outnumbered the guys with 2:1, we practised shines and styling, which makes the dance so much more elegant as well as fun. I came home in a really good mood which has lasted all evening. I can’t wait before OnlineSalsa.com goes live….but until then check us out on facebook [...]

World War III did not break out!

Posted by: fracas on January 10 @ 1:55 pm

Saturday didn’t turn out bad at all. One would have thought with a blog post as my last, that World War III had broken out in the Waldau – te Brake mansion, but peace prevailed. I said my goodbyes and went into town on my own. It was cold, snowy, but my spirit was on [...]

Blogging has been sparse this weekend. I was just too tired, so I took time to sleep, relax and do a bit of shopping in town. Not much I must admit as I’ve done all my Christmas shopping during a late night shopping spree a couple of weeks ago. Friday Stephen came over to give [...]

Weekend Newsflash

Posted by: fracas on November 17 @ 10:51 am

The day Sinterklaas makes his regal entrance through a well orchestrated city parade is the day the pre-Christmas period starts. At least for me, as I’m a Christmas fan and although I wouldn’t dream of going overboard in Christmas decorations, blinking lights and various yuletide bling bling (after all it has to be understated and [...]

Paris part deux

Posted by: fracas on October 19 @ 6:11 pm

The thing with having a digital camera is that you take so many pictures. In a way I miss having the old fashioned photo albums. Those carried memories for life, invaluable, whereas their digital versions are forgotten as soon as the picture was downloaded to some anonymous folder. Well digital version in all honour, here [...]

Paris here I come!

Posted by: fracas on October 7 @ 9:19 pm

I’m so excited! Tomorrow Reinout , Sebastian and I are going to Paris. The city I have a long lasting love affair with. In fact it’s beyond love….adoration and worship more like it.  We are making a small stop in between as we have some appointments to attend to. I managed to find a small, [...]
