In focus is a fortnightly, online update on things that the focus team has loved. New places we have discovered, food we’ve enjoyed and events that have made us happy – here’s a glimpse into our lives from the past two weeks.
2019 pocket planner
Every year it’s a mission to find THE planner that will fit your needs, suit your lifestyle and last for the next 12 months. Well, this year it was easier than ever! The perfect companion for business and personal plans was quickly found at Kmart.
This compact planner has everything you need: weekly schedules, cool stickers to sort out to-do lists, sticky notes, a notepad and four card pockets, even a space for your pen. You’re also able to add or take out pages. Above all expectations.
There are two sizes available. We recommend the smaller one (approx A6) – so convenient to carry around, even in a small purse!
Vitamin C Super Serum, Beauty Tofu
After trying T3 Tip To Toe Organic Temple Detox by Beauty Tofu this mask is always on our ‘must-have’ list. With our last re-purchase we decided to try a few more products from this local vegan brand.
Looks like the Vitamin C Super Serum might earn its own spot in our hearts. First of all, it’s the fastest absorbing serum we’ve ever tried! And the texture is so nice – no annoying greasy feeling that some other serums leave you with. Consisting only of natural, healthy ingredients, it hydrates, restores and plumps even the tiredest of skins. Yes, please!
It was the best of sentences, it was the worst of sentences – June Casagrande
We have a thing for digging deeper when it comes to writing skills. After discovering what should be every editor’s coffee table book some time ago, we’ve found another masterpiece!
June Casagrande is a linguist and language columnist. She uses her experience in editing with her wicked sense of humour to show exactly what makes some sentences suck and guides readers through the process of building the most perfect ones.
By the way, It was the best of sentences is not just for journalists! Anyone from aspiring writers to school students will find this book really useful.
Vegan Chunky Dips – Seasons Gourmet
Yum! This is hands-down the most delicious dip ever! A mouthwatering combination of sundried tomatoes, cashew nuts, a touch of chilli and coriander means it’s good enough to be eaten on its own. We might or might not have even used a tablespoon!
Add fresh veggies and crackers and there’s your perfect summer picnic platter.
Stack up on your Seasons Gourmet dips at your local Pak’n’Save or Countdown.
