LifestyleOn The Shelf

On the shelf #2 {and the passage of time}

I think this may be a record in procrastination – even for me . . .

I am a trifle embarrassed to admit that I started this “series” almost a year ago – with all the best intentions – and am now attempting to put my best foot forward.

If you read On The Shelf #1 HERE – it will give you a little more background as to these intentions.

Again (as explained in #1) I am including links to my Amazon Affiliate Account – which basically means if you buy anything off Amazon following the links I post, it makes no difference to your costs at all, but Tea in Tangier will get a referral commission. While some of this will be helpful for admin costs of the site I will, in a small attempt to share the love, donate 20% annually to a Women’s Cooperative in Tangier.

But for now, back to what I have been #readinginthemedina (or where ever I may find myself!)

As always a cookbook seems to feature on my list – Casablanca: My Moroccan Food arrived on my doorstep yesterday and I spent a leisurely hour paging through it last night. This book is a wonderful combination of traditional Moroccan recipes  along with a more contemporary interpretation of tastes and flavours. There are some great looking summery recipes in here and I think I may even try the Roasted Red Pepper Salad this evening. For a little more information on author Nargisse have a look HERE on my #MeetTheMaker page.

Moving on up the pile, it is combination of a relatively light read in The Zanzibar Wife , the heartwarming and sometimes a little annoying(? anyone else?)  Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine , and finally on top, the hard hitting but beautifully written social commentary Woman at Point Zero by Egyptian writer Nawaal El Saadi.

On a visual note, I have of course added The Grand Budapest Hotel [DVD] to my Wes Anderson Collection.

And finally – if you have been following me on Facebook or Instagram , you will know that we have recently spent some time back on “homeground” in Cape Town – while we were there we spent the good part of  a wonderful day meandering around the inspirational gardens of Babylonstoren, and my lovely friend bought me this book The Garden of Babylonstoren to remind me of all things possible and horticultural.

Despite these gardens being on such a grand scale, there is still a wonderful attention to detail and design, with pretty and practical elements like this “Insect Hotel”.

So while the sun is shining, I might just go and do a little digging myself!

I spent some time last week wondering around @hix_event for @hoteldesigns - it was lovely to be back in London at a trade show and be able to have a look at the designs and listen to the debates - here are a few of the things that caught my eye...follow the link in my bio to the post on @hoteldesigns to read more about the conversations that were being had about the direction of design in the hospitality sector - but back to the images - this couch from @carlhansenandson was beautiful in design and detail - inspired wall coverings by @arte - going back to my textile roots I loved the printed velvets by @ilivfabrics - the sculptural lampshade by @omio.ad and finally ending with the poignant quote by #harukimurakami in the installation by #areendesign - and that barely scratched the surface....#hix2021

Every plate tells a story...I posted about my review of my time spent @qdlresort earlier this week - but for me it's always the details...aside from the fabulous food at @casavelhaqdl the attention to detail and presentation was what blew me away - every one of these plates/dishes/bowls is embedded in the area and tells a story - elevating the experience! #foodstories #farmtotable #artisanal LINK in bio.
