Spring is officially here, and what could be more suitable than celebrating with an entire month dedicated to South African’s favourite pastime – having a BRAAI! Whether you’re doing it on your stoep in Strandfontein, or on your patio in Pretoria. Or at your mother’s brother’s uncle’s house in Kraaifontein. There’s nothing better than the smell of a chop sizzling on the coals. And as an extra bonus … WE GET THE DAY OFF!!! Our government set this day aside for all South Africans to celebrate our rich heritage.

Browsing on the internet, I’ve stumbled onto braai.com, whose mission is to position National Braai Day as South Africa’s annual day of celebration on National Heritage Day.

They’ve also shared a list of fun braai words, almost like a braai-dictionary to help you sound cool around the fire: 1. Aai: a braai in the summer aka – a braai without the brrrr!

2. Abbraaiviation: a very short braai.

3. Abraaimowitz: a Jewish braai.

4. Asskebab: If somebody makes an ass of himself/herself at a braai you call them an Asskebab.

5. Aweh: various meanings and can be widely used to express something positive e.g. hello, yes, nice, good.

6. Baas: Afrikaans for boss, the guy holding the braai tongs.

7. Bak: a dish, made from aluminum or stainless steel, used for storing the meat in before and after it is braaied. Some braaiers use a glass bak, but there is a safety concern in this. When you eat straight off of the braai, then a bak is unnecessary.

8. Barbie: Australian slang for barbeque. What you learn to call a braai when you immigrate there.

9. Black wattle: Alien vegetation that uses a lot of water when alive. Good for the environment to chop it down and braai with it. Versatile braai wood, burns easily when dry, and makes decent coals.

10. Blitz: Although this is a brandname, it is used as a universal term in South Africa for fire lighters of any kind or brand. A frequently asked question at many a braai: “where is the blitz?”

11. Blitzbraai: When you light the blitz intending to braai but instead just end up getting blitzed sonder a braai.

12. BMW: Braai Met Wiele - Braai met wiele wat hier daar of enige plek gesleep kan word om te braai.

13. Boerie: abbreviation for

boereworsroll.

14. Bokdopentjop (bok-dop-en-tjop) – ‘bring and braai’ – you may bring your bok (babe), your dop (drinks) and tjop (meat of choice).

15. Bosberaad: a conference. You and your friends coming together to discuss your strategy for National Braai Day. 16. Braai hard: 90′s action movie about a really rough guy who braais a lot.

17. Braai hijacker: the guy that you don’t really want to invite to your braai, but have too. Cause he is someone’s boyfriend. He claims to be a chef and manages to hi-jack the braai when the real braaier goois a dop.

18. Braai tongs: Weapon of choice for the braai master.

19. Braaiathon: a very long braai 20. Braaidsmaid: Female performing supporting role during a braai. E.g. making salad, marinating meat, making braaibroodjies.

GRILLED GRAPE FRUITS

At the very start of spring the grape fruit is in full swing.

I started serving these zesty and yet slightly warming delicacies on cooler spring retreat mornings. There is something intrinsically cheerful about the smell of grapefruits that make them a welcome addition to a breakfast spread.

Select ruby grapefruits for their vibrant colour and richer antioxidant content and use a grapefruit knife to cut into segments before grilling for easier eating.

The sprinkle of brown sugar will melt into the grapefruit as it caramelizes, softening the bitterness and giving the surface a perfectly radiant glow.

A joyous and juicy way to begin the day.

WHAT YOU NEED: • 3 grapefruits • 2 tbls brown sugar (approx) WHAT TO DO: • Set the oven to grill and place a rack in the middle shelf.

• Cut grapefruits evenly in half, slice 2-3mm off each base to allow grapefruits to rest flat without rolling.

• If using a grapefruit knife, carefully cut along the rim of the flesh before cutting into 4 or 8 segments.

• Place grapefruits on a baking sheets, flesh side up,and GET THIS sprinkle each BOOK!

half with approximately 1 tsp of brown sugar to taste.

• Grill for about 10-15 minutes until flecked and speckled.

Serve plain or with yoghurt.

PERMANENT MAKE UP BEFORE

http://techcrunch.com

AFTER

3D printing is all the rage these days, but for now, it’s mostly centered around little plastic doo-dads.

The MINK, is a bit different.

This little printer lets users choose any color on the web, or in the real world, and using simple already-existing software, print that color into a blush, eye shadow, lip gloss or any other type of makeup.

See, most makeup comes from the same basic substrates, from high-end labels like Chanel all the way down to the cheap stuff available at drug stores. Founder Grace Choi sources the same substrate for the Mink so that users can turn any image into any kind of makeup.

The idea here is that consumers are increasingly focused on instant gratification and DIY solutions. Choi also noticed that makeup consumers aren’t always loyal to certain brands, but rather focused on convenience. With Mink, users can satisfy the desire for instant gratification while still having access to any color in the world at an affordable price.

Simply choose a color on a website, Pinterest board, or snap one with your phone in the real world, and use any color picker to locate the hex code of the color.

Once you have the code, you can put it into any other program like Photoshop or Paint and simply press print.

The company is targeting the younger, 13-21 demographic who are less ingrained in their habits with certain brands and retailers.

Currently, the Mink is still a prototype, which is set to retail at $300 (approx.

R3000) and although the prices of the ink and raw materials aren’t available yet, we totally think Grace Choi is on to something big. What would you want to print first?

Your own eyeshadow? Or what about a blusher? The options are endless.

House & Home SEPTEMBER 2014 5 By: Germarie Bruwer and Margaux Tait from Homeology.co.za

Sometimes life throws you some old tiles and then you have two options: live with it, or paint and stamp it! Save yourself a heap of cash by opting for this very clever stamp that can be used in any number of ways.

My kitchen had been in desperate need of a tiled splash-back because unlike most old homes, I wasn’t blessed with horrid old kitchen tiles.

4. Use grout to fill in the spaces and let it dry for a couple of hours.

1.Cut 16 mm chip board to the size you want your panel to be, minus 2.5 mm on all 4 sides. This will ensure that the tiles hang over the wood a little bit to create a nice shadow line.

6. Then STAMP

2. Fix 2 mirror fixings to the back — it’s easier to do this first otherwise you risk breaking a tile or two.

3. The stamp size is 150 mm x150mm so I used some very inexpensive white tiles to the same size. Fix the tiles to the panel using a tile adhesive, leaving a 2 mm space between them.

5. Prime the tiles with a standard tile primer — there are many brands on the market — and then let it cure for 24 hours.

7. After the pattern had dried for a couple of hours, you’ll need to seal it with a craft sealer like Harlequin Paint’s Decorator’s Varnish. It’s a clear coat that will ensure that you can wipe down the tiles when they get wet or dirty.

Ja, die winter is verby . En dit is nóú tyd vir die super-ma’s om hulle lywe somer-reg te kry! Hierdie borrelbad-bomme sal sommer een-twee-drie weer die woema in jou wiele sit.

Buitendien: Dit gee jou ’n lekker verskoning om ’n bietjie langer in die bad te lê …

Wat moet jy hê?

• 240 ml koeksoda • 120 ml sitroensuur • 120 ml mielieblom (Maizena) • 120 ml Engelse sout • 1t water • 2 t aromatiese olie • 2½ t amandel-olie • ’n paar druppels voedselkleursel • ’n Klein plastiek bakkie/houertjie wat jy as gietvorm kan gebruik Hoe moet jy maak?

• Voeg al die droë bestanddele in ’n groot mengbak bymekaar en meng dit goed deur.

• Voeg al die nat bestanddele in ‘n apparte houer

bymekaar en meng dit ook goed.

• Giet nou die nat beslag by die droë bestanddele en roer dit met ’n lepel deur.

Op ’n stadium moet alles so goed vermeng wees dat dit lekker klewerig begin word.

Amper soos as jy sandkastele bou.

• Vul nou die klein plastiek bakkie/houertjie met die mengsel, tot bo. Voeg dan nóg ’n bietjie by – en druk dit alles stýf vas. (As dit vir jou lyk of die mengsel nog nie klewerig genoeg is nie, gooi bietjies-bietjies water daarby, totdat dit reg is.)

• As jy tevrede is met die verkleefdheid, kan jy dit versigtig uit haal.

• Plaas dit op ’n handdoek met waspapier daarop, sodat dit kan droog word. Dié proses sal ongeveer 48 uur duur.

BATES UITGESLUIT VAN ‘N GEMEENSKAPLIKE BOEDEL Daar bestaan somtyds verwarring by partye dat waar hul getroud is binne gemeenskap van goedere dat alle bates deel vorm van die gemeenskaplike boedel. Die blote feit dat persone binne gemeenskap van goed getroud is, beteken nie noodwendig dat onroerende goed (bv. vaste eiendom) wat deur hom/haar verkry word, deel van die gemeenskaplike boedel vorm nie. In sekere gevalle; bv. waar bates testamentêr bemaak is of geskenk is en daar ‘n bepaling in die testament is dat enige bemaking vry sal wees van enige huwelik binne gemeenskap van goedere of nie deel sal vorm van die aanwasbedeling nie; sal sodanige goed buite die gemeenskaplike boedel bly en word dit slegs in die naam van die gade geregistreer wat die bate toekom. Dit beteken dat in sommige gevalle slegs die helfte van ‘n eiendom deel sal vorm van die gemeenskaplike boedel en die ander helfte uitgesluit word.

Onroerende eiendom wat gekoop word uit die opbrengs wat ontvang is uit ‘n skenking of bemaking sal ook gedeeltelik uitgesluit of geheel uitgesluit kan word. Dit is belangrik dat die persone hierdie feite onder die aandag van die transportbesorger wat bemoeid is met die registrasie van die eiendom se aandag bring en dat daar ‘n behoorlike skenkingsakte verkry word wanneer skenkings aan gades gemaak word. Dit is dus ‘n belangrike aspek wat oorweeg moet word by die opstel van ‘n testament en die uitvoering daarna van enige handelinge wat gebeur met sodanige skenking en/of bemaking ten einde die persoon se boedel en/of bate wat aan sodanige persoon toekom te beskerm teen enige skuldeisers en/of insolvensie van die ander gade.
