contemplating my navel: April 2011
http://contemplating-my-navel.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Almost daily jottings and ramblings about everything and nothing. Monday, April 25, 2011. Layla Sleeps = Mommy Writes. One of my biggest 'wings' is poverty. But: I am not going to give up trying to find the flipside-positive of this time-absence thing! What being a mother HAS taught me is to honour the time I do have: I no longer fart-arse around in perpetual procrastination! How could I have wasted all those 31 years of lazy lie-ins? So - thank you, Layla, my baby! Tuesday, April 5, 2011. The Atlantic: ...

Newer posts →. December 6, 2012 · 11:13 am. After a messy patch of drunken nights and lost cell phones, I slowly became aware that I was listening to more music than I ever had previously. Whether at work, in my car, running, or in search of concerts songs were suddenly a central force. In the wake of a breakup from a 10-year relationship, I was finding catharsis and a friend in music. Memory is powerfully conducted by music (and smell – but that’s another kettle of fish). Even Alzheimer’s pati...This ma...

The Soutpiel Phenomenon: December 2011

How I became a soutie. and why I've chosen to go home. Wednesday, December 14, 2011. Wild, Wild Wailing Wanting! Eish No blogging in over 2 months of wordlessness. So - where to begin? Perhaps a few little jottings about the Mother City? Cape Town, the cradle of all that I am, the archive of all my most precious, magical memories. After two months back in Cape Town, it seems surreal and preposterous that I ever actually chose. The glass submariney thing under the gargantuan whale skeleton? Conversely, he...

The Soutpiel Phenomenon: August 2011
http://thesoutpielphenomenon.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
How I became a soutie. and why I've chosen to go home. Friday, August 5, 2011. Grahamstown, Fled (again.). Im cramped into the over-packed back of our 4x4 bakkie while Craig navigates us safely from Grahamstown to PE on the notoriously dangerous N2 - terrorised by giant kudu at night, and giant arseholes by day. Overtaking on blind turns is apparently the most fun to be had on this bleak, rainy day in the bundu - and everyones playing except us! And my poison for ce soir: a Leopards Leap Shiraz Cinsaut!

The Soutpiel Phenomenon: September 2010
http://thesoutpielphenomenon.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
How I became a soutie. and why I've chosen to go home. Friday, September 24, 2010. I'm visiting my folks in Cape Town (which feels magnificently exotic and oh-so-glam after 2 months in the Eastern Cape! And, because of a divine comment. From a family coming HOME after a stint in the States, I just. To quickly link back here to my Homecoming Revolution blog update! Repatriation is busy work, indeed! Wink* So there has been minimal time to do any proper writing. lol! Nevertheless, here is the link.

The Soutpiel Phenomenon: May 2011
http://thesoutpielphenomenon.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
How I became a soutie. and why I've chosen to go home. Thursday, May 19, 2011. Laptop dusted in sad neglect on a chair in the lounge, its screen dotted with sticky toddler fingerprints. Why? As it is, Im typing this on my Blackberry at Club Duvet while Layla sleeps next to me! Here follows the messaged chat:. D: Do you have Malemas cell number still? Me: 1. It turned out to be a really sh*tty idea. 8206;4. I made some very special friends. 5 I facilitated some fiery confrontations which started in p...

The Soutpiel Phenomenon: Spring Into Action!
http://thesoutpielphenomenon.blogspot.com/2012/09/spring-into-action.html
How I became a soutie. and why I've chosen to go home. Thursday, September 6, 2012. Spring has arrived - with a rainbow of feathery flourishes, oodles of hope and the most gentle of sunshine. Feathers? What have feathers got to do with the price of eggs? Everything. But, this is a little secret I'm hiding for a few more weeks. So, hold both. Your thumbs and wish upon a zillion stars for me - because. (*deep, excited breath/sparkling eyes*): this may just be IT for me! Nothing better than cousin-cuddles!

The Soutpiel Phenomenon: A-maize-ing!
http://thesoutpielphenomenon.blogspot.com/2011/08/maize-ing.html
How I became a soutie. and why I've chosen to go home. Thursday, August 4, 2011. I guess this should really be a post for my Samp and Sushi blog which is an emaciated little waif of a blog - - and some advice that Blackberried to me yesterday suggested I may just a few too many blogs. So: Ill hide that one - and if I am overcome by a desire to write about South African food - Ill do it here, ok? Those whose less-ness terrifies you, or exhausts your nights with guilt? Oh my darling Lisa. You are so amazin...
