I’m happiest when I’m walking barefoot on the lawn in the rain at night-time, dodging flying ant-eating frogs and toads
Lying on our backs on the trampoline at night, watching the stars, makes me happy
Swimming under the moonlight
The smell of swimming towels in summer
Waking up to the sound of rain
Kids opening presents
Watching sunset over Soccer City from the deck with no kids for that 10 minutes a day
Turning the radio up in the car and singing like no one can hear me
Joburg afternoon thunderstorms
The smell of rain
Reading a good book on a rainy day
It makes me happy to stroll on the Mouille Point promenade on a Sunday morning and see dolphins
Opening all the windows and doors of my house to let in the early evening breeze and the smell of summer from my garden
Sitting on a camping chair in the cool afternoon shade, eating a bowl of mussels and sipping on cool water (while daydreaming)
When I’m laughing with my two favourite people of all time
Playing games with my family and walking with my fur babies
Milk chocolate
Opening my oven to take out freshly baked rusks makes me happy
Watching my kids fooling around makes me happy
The peacefulness of my home once the kids are asleep and I have the whole evening spread out in front of me
Harvesting vegetables and herbs from my garden
Chirping birds on a bright, sunny day
Laying the table properly, with a tablecloth, and eating a home-cooked meal
