So its been two months since starting the Food and Wine Photo Blog and the feedback and support has been phenomenal. We just have to make a special mention and thank Sybil Doms and Peet Stander from Come Wine With Us if it wasn’t for their constant encouragement,we would not have been here,so GROOT DANKIE :).
These two gave us the confidence to take the plunge and do what we love and share it with the world and for that we will be forever thankful.
So for the next few weeks we are going to be pretty busy,we hope to see you at some of these events because after good food + good wine + great people = an amazing experience.
