Something amazing happened here in Cape Town while I was on vacation....the winds died down and summer has finally arrived!  There is no better way to continue that relaxed, vacation vibe than spending a day at the beach, so that's where I was this weekend.  I also had a chance to catch up on reading some blogs.  Here are some of my favorite posts from while I was away:

• Yummy, gooey salted caramel brownies
• Brillant DIY toilet paper roll advent calendar
• Beautiful wooden bicycle hooks
• Colorful, fun wallpaper for your desktop background
• I'm now a "Local Expert" on AFAR, and you can check out a few of my favorite things to do while in Cape Town on my Wanderlist
• I get excited for pop-up shops every holiday season, even in Cape Town!  Check out Abi & Scarlett on Bree Street

 (Aren't those swimsuits great??)
