Christmas Just Ain’t Christmas without Woolies

Christmas Just Ain’t Christmas without Woolies

The countdown to the festive season has begun! YIKES! If you haven’t started your festive shopping, then you better get cracking! Nobody wants to spend their year end leave trawling around shopping centres hunting down their holiday find. I know that’s the last place I want to be! I’d rather be sipping on cocktails by the pool, catching a tan. After all, isn’t that what Christmas in South Africa is all about?

A Festive Feast with Woolies

A Festive Feast with Woolies

The festive season has crept up on us once again! Are you ready? Have you planned and planned for months? Have you got everything you need? Don’t stress if you haven’t gone into major planning mode for Christmas, because Woolies has your back! Back in August, I attended their Christmas media day, and let me just tell you, that besides the fab gifting options, the food is out of this world!!! Serve it up in your most stylish dinnerware, and your guests will think you’re a rock star, gourmet cook! We were treated to a delightful menu of fabulous food cooked up, prepared and presented by the talented Woolies food team… For starters, I had the Norwegian Salmon, cured and marinated in lemon and pink peppercorn. Salmon and Trout canape with gold spray and salmon and prawn terrine with salmon row. Is your tummy rumbling yet? Mine sure is! For mains I had the free range leg of lamb with cranberry sauce, served with ready to eat de-boned gammon, (smoked in beach wood) and served with toppings of crispy bacon, finished with delicious veggies and potatoes. Oh yum! And for dessert, which is always my favourite part of the meal,…

Ring Ting-A-Ling! Christmas With Woolies

Ring Ting-A-Ling! Christmas With Woolies

Christmas just would’nt be Christmas without some amazing treats (to eat, to wear and to indulge in) from Woolworths. I don’t know how, but every year their Christmas selection just keeps getting better and more indulgent.  It’s a little difficult to watch our weight over the festive season with so many indulgent treats around. But let’s not complain about piling on the pounds, or kilograms as we say here in South Africa, and let’s just eat, drink and be merry! Here’s a look at some of the goodies Woolies has this year for you to enjoy! I got this amazing Christmas box from Woolworths, filled to the brim with all these goodies, so I can tell you first hand, that they are treats you would definitely want . Luckily I took photos before erm, indulging, otherwise as I write this today, I’d have nothing to show you, accept a beautifully wrapped box! Mmmmm-ama Mia! Loved the Dark Chocolate Discs. Most people would use these to decorate their tree, but not me – I had a fabulous time eating them. They were filled with a yummy  mint fondant! Something else you could hang on your tree, provided you have more willpower than moi,…

Woolies Scoop – Ho Ho Holidays

Woolies Scoop – Ho Ho Holidays

It’s official! The holidays are upon us. Time for shopping, queuing, fighting over the last red bauble and thinking about what we’re going to wear and serve at our Christmas family dinners and luncheons. Don’t worry though, as Woolies has you covered for a fabulous holiday season. In August this year, I went to Woolworths’ Media Day, where they displayed all the lovely goodies that will be in store this Christmas. I had to restrain myself from tweeting and posting all these gorgeous pics I snapped up, as we were asked to keep everything hush hush. Today I get to reveal all! Fashion, food, fun! Fashion First on the to-do list, is to get your Christmas outfit (or outfits) sorted! There is such a beautiful selection of summer dresses at Woolworths this year, I’m sure you’ll find your perfect match. Although I already did a post on holiday dresses, I decided to pop into Woolies again to see what else they had in store, something a little more festive you know? This green dress from Twist (R399 top left) caught my eye immediately. In fact, I left with one in my shopping bag and if the weather warms up here…
