Hi, my name is Charlene! Welcome to my site. 

A few facts about me...
  • I am married to Justin since 2012, a super talented architect whose integrity, hard work, honesty and dedication I so admire. 
  • I have a son named Eli James, born on 4 May 2017. I also have a precious baby in Heaven named Jem. 
  • I'm a stay-at-home mom who is pretty much winging it.
  • I'm a proud South African who will need to be dragged out the country before she leaves. 
  • I love doughnuts. Like way too much. Like, I'm surprised I'm not obese. 
  • I am passionate about the topics of miscarriage and prematurity having gone through both. 
  • I am slightly obsessed with monochrome. Like I don't own colors. I have to feel for textures when finding something to wear in my closet. 
  • I am a Christ-follower who is a work-in-progress.
  • I have the most amazing friends and church community - I  feel like I've fallen with my bum in the butter,  
  • I used to own a little baking business where I baked wedding and birthday cakes, pastries and A LOT of cookies. I now just bake for fun.
  • I believe that life is not meant to make me happy, but grow me into a more mature person. Happiness will be a by-product of me growing up and making good decisions. 
  • I have had a passion for food since I can remember - making it and eating it. (probably more eating it)
  • I love writing and I really try to not suck at it, but it's more about the message anyway.
  • I am passionate about hospitality and making a house a home. 
  • I am passionate about marriage and fighting even when it's hard. 
  • I love children and I think Early Childhood Development is one of the most important and neglected topics. (First 7 years are the most important in a kid's life!)
  • I am a recovering people-pleaser and I'm doing my best to not always tell people what they want to hear. 
  • I hope my blog will actually be helpful and not just another opinion.
