Did you make any New Year’s resolutions? If so what were they?
I do not make New Year’s resolutions, as my personal goal in life is to live the best I can day by day.
What did you like most about 2017?
I was fortunate to travel abroad to visit my family in South Africa early in 2017 and in November 2017 be surprised by my sister coming all the way from South Africa to Canada for my birthday and visiting for a week, and all these arrangements were made without my knowledge. On the evening of my birthday celebration, my husband made a speech and said that he has a surprise and at that point, my sister walked in and WOW, what a surprise of a lifetime.
What did you like least about 2017?
I am unable to answer as life is good, and I am unable to complain about my life.

If an when I have time (not often) I love to make gift cards, either using our own pictures taken over the years or pin-pricking cards and then stitching it with intricate and beautiful images.
What did you like most about Christmas and New Year?
Spending quality time and being with our own children, their spouses, and our four grandchildren.
What is your blog about?
I am a foodie and share only home-made tried and tested recipes from around the globe.
What would you like to share about yourself to introduce yourself to the readers?
Read my About The Recipe Hunter page and hopefully, you will get to know me a bit better.
How did you create the name of your blog?
As I love to share my passion to cook, bake and experiment in the kitchen, and this has to do with recipes, it was obvious to me that the name had to do with Recipes, and as I am always looking, reading and ‘devouring’ (no pun intended) any book or magazine for new and interesting recipes, the name The Recipe Hunter came about. This is my way of relaxing after a long and hard week in the office, and if you wish you can call it my ‘retail therapy’, so please join me on this day to day journey, which I just ♥
Please visit and like my Cook and Enjoy with The Recipe Hunter FB Page, that way I know that I can share your posts as well. Visit the link above, and you will see that I have already shared a number of posts from fellow bloggers. As soon as I see you ‘like’ the page, I will share some of your posts.

Dear sweet lady, I am greatly touched that you should nominate me for any award … but especially the Liebster award. I loved reading the post and think your surprise present was simply the most wonderful gift a husband could have given.
You may have noticed I am not writing much at the moment, this is because a lot of the time i am not able (medically) to focus my mind . While treatment for my condition will improve this, I am not in that place yet. My blog is award free as comments and interaction are award enough. So I regretfully decline your wonderful questions and hope not to lose your friendship in the process. Please keep visiting as I do your blog, one day soon I hope to be back with more consistency. Xx congratulations again.
Dear sweet Ellen. Thanks for your comments, and visits. I fully understand and pray for you that your medical condition will improve day by day. All the best
Ha ha!! What wonderful questions you came up with! I love it! And, it’s nice that you got to see your family so much in 2017, being so far away!
Thank you for your visits and comment. Yes the biggest gift I could have received from my husband and kids to bring my sister out for my birthday. One I will never ever forget
