#ThreeThings

Hi Friends,

Here's my latest #ThreeThings. I haven't yet solidified what gets to go onto the list but for now, it's three things I have and love or would love to have. This one is of the latter.

1. Plum lipstick shade. Looks like this is the season's shade
2. A stylin cap...summer's going but still
3. A fly pair of Js. It's Beyonce, she made me do it. (--_)

Mozam in three snaps

I loved our trip to Mozambique over new years. I won't say much about it though, it's my little gem. But here are 3 snaps from our time in Bilene AKA little heaven. These pretty much some up the life that side though :')

And More Beach

Hello dearest lectors,

I have two very different things to share with you this week:

First, some really authentic woodwork by Tiger Mouse. While net trolling during last week, I stumbled upon these amazing creations. Tiger Mouse make carve typography out of wood for personal and business needs. On their site you can see a number of fonts and finishes. My heart really wants one large piece as a headboard over my bed...*swoon*. Hopefully in a couple of months I can make it happen. If you, however, are in better financial standing than myself, give them a smoke signal here.

Pics below. :)

Secondly, as you can imagine when I troll the net, I do a thorough job, so during more net trolling I found this video. It's about the power of outrospecting. Who'd have thought empathy could be used as a tool in business, art, politics etc. I just love the perspective. I also am putty for the illustrative style. Enjoy! 

God's Window

"So young for death, we walk in shoes too bigBut you play it like a poet like you always didAnd I lay face upturned on the palm of GodPushed on by the fingertips of dreamsThey haunted me, consoling me
And I would like to call, call it beautyStrained as love's become, it still amazes meAnd I would like to call it beautyBeauty, beauty, beauty"
Corinne Bailey Rae "I'd like to call it beauty."
The first verse of this song is the only way I know how to describe our trip to God's Window. Serene, complete and vast. The area is a reason if you needed one to believe that God is real. How it reduces you to a minute detail and puts into perspective the fraction on mass you are compared to the earth is a feeling everyone must find - humbling.
It reminded me of a quote I liked in Life Of Pi "It moved with the slow, massive confidence of a continent." 
We arrived on a dark, wet Friday evening and didn't see much going there, but even in the dark, one can feel the sheer grandeur of the mountains that the road winds around, meandering up and down all the way to Graskop. 
In the morning, after a brief drive through the tiny pancake shop filled town we went out to see the sites. God's Window itself was breath taking but there are also a number of other sites to see along the entire Pavilion area between God's Window and Sabie. We saw water falls and mountain passes and each other - in a calmer less city-saturated way, that's one of the nicest things about going away...you get to stop and see each other :)
We ate at an old train station styled diner  and drove along the wormy path back home in the thickest fog I've ever seen in my life! - every bit of it was amazing.

Snaps!

The fog lifted to give us a peek, like God had opened his curtain :)
