Cheese & Wine for a Special 89th Birthday Celebration

1 Shares

My dear beloved granddad turned 89 and we celebrated this special birthday at home with delicious cheese and wine!

This is a casual (and super yummy!) way of celebrating and it was perfect for our intimate family get together, it allowed us time to sit back and enjoy the food, the wine and the company at leisure.

MY PERSONAL FAVOURITE ELEMENTS WERE:

all the cheese! I love CHEESE!
all the wine! I love WINE!
(but seriously though) the blue cheese and fig phyllo parcels, they are always the first bites to disappear whenever I cater for events such as these
the delicious selection of local and imported charcuterie, I usually get mine from Seemann’s Deli in Centurion
and obviously spending time with my family on this very special occasion!

We decorated the table with Afrikaans nostalgia tablecloths, beautiful proteas, wooden boards, wine racks and food flags, among other things.

Additional eats included a selection of biscuits and breads, fresh seasonal fruit and berries, preserves, a selection of spreads such as homemade chicken liver pate and guacamole, dried fruit, roasted & salted mixed nuts, the list goes on… This is basically my favourite way of eating!

Hi!
My name is Anel.

I am a wife, mother, entrepreneur, event stylist, South African music fanatic, artist manager, blogger and foodie!

My personal mission is to combine and share my passion for food and music with you and to entertain, inform and inspire you to create your own feasts at home. I aim to bring a smile to your face, to inspire you and to spark creativity in you. I am a creative and love DIY projects, planning, executing and finally styling eats and treats tables for special occasions.

My favourite thing to eat is a beautifully styled cheese and charcuterie board with a glass of good red wine and live music playing in the background. Or the foreground. Writing about food and music (and everything in between) excites me because these are two of the many things that South Africa has an abundance of and it is also two of the few things that really bring people together.

If you are creative and enjoy event styling, cooking, baking, entertaining, live music, festivals and markets like I do then stick around. Here I will share events and recipes, talk about new music, interview artists, recommend festivals, markets, events and eateries, review products and offer catering and décor solutions.

I think out of the box (and in the shower). I draw inspiration from others. I like creating new ways of doing old things. I like using old things to make new things. When you leave here I want you to be informed and feel inspired, excited and a little nostalgic.

Welcome to my world!
