June 2020 - Ballito Umhlanga

A hot date!
Jolly good fun to be had at home this June
Amazing online cooking experience
For an extraordinary online cooking experience,
you shouldn’t miss courses by Sandy’s Kitchen ...
an hour of pure culinary pleasure! An enormously
popular caterer, Sandy has been giving online
courses during lockdown ... she’s gone Middle
Eastern with Pinina’s tabbouleh and Indian with
lamb Madras, beaten the winter chills with lamb
shank cassoulet and posh with smoked salmon
and dill tart. The live, online demos are held on
Fridays from 10am to 11am, and cost R150. You’ll
need to book prior to the event on WhatsApp 082-
882-0238 and the themes are given in advance on
Sandy’s Instagram page (sandyskitchensa).
Virtual roses
Nothing beats being able to wander down
rows of roses, inhaling their perfume. But
then along came travel restrictions, personal
distancing and face masks. So now, although
all its outlets are open for a real rose fix,
Ludwig’s Roses has gone virtual. That means
you can browse the rose catalogue on-line,
and order roses on-line for delivery or kerbside
collection. For ‘how to’ advice on almost every
aspect of rose growing – from planting to
spraying, transplanting and pruning – visit
www.ludwigsroses.co.za and click on the
YouTube social media icon. Once you’ve been
inspired, order away. Delivery in the metro
areas is free for orders of R1000 or more.
A game drive ... in your living room
For an authentic experience in nature, these awesome nature live
streams will let you experience the great outdoors from the comfort
of your sofa.
Naledi – Cat Eye Camera has been set up at the eye level of a
leopard to give you a sense of the size of the different creatures
that visit the waterhole. It’s at the Naledi game lodge in the gamerich
greater Kruger conservancy, so marvellous viewing. Cheetah,
lions, elephant, giraffe, impala, baboons, warthog and owls have all
been spotted recently, along with genets, meercats, waterbuck and
porcupines. Tune in: youtu.be/8UFA66bi-0g
Also try the Nkorho Bush Lodge site, which is in the Sabi Sand
private game reserve. This camera is equipped with infrared
technology, allowing you to take a look at the watering hole at night.
The area is famous for Big Five viewing, and birdlife is abundant.
