bonjour!
If you’re suffering from writer’s block,
there’s only one solution: sit in front of
your computer and write until you come
out on the ‘other side’.
This was author Deon Meyer’s advice at a writers’
breakfast one morning and when it came to my ed’s
letter for this, our French issue, I suddenly understood
exactly what he meant. My words dried up – probably
because we are slap bang in the middle of two deadlines
(our first bonus issue,
Home Paint It,
will be on-shelf
in late April) and my head is simply filled with too
many things.
So I took Deon’s wise words on board and started
writing random thoughts down...
I recalled my first visit to France, the blissful start to a
holiday that would take me and an old university friend to
Spain and back. Such great memories.
I also asked friends on Facebook for inspiration.
Therese shared a photo of the Eiffel Tower, and my
cousin Chantal recounted how a stranger in France had walked
right up to her, kissed her resoundingly on the lips and told her she
was “so beautiful”.
Ilza wanted to know what the plural of the French surname
Du Plessis is (no comment) and my colleague Dale informed me,
rather drily, that since she’d made spaghetti for dinner, she would
be able to provide plenty of Italian inspiration...
Finally, our English copy editor, Gillian, provided a ray of light.
She wrote: “Hi Wicus. This is not especially related to your ed’s
letter conundrum, but I just wanted to say that Dale’s comment in
her bedroom makeover story that ‘working at
Home
magazine has
inspired her to re-do her house’ – well, I’m the same! We have
given our kitchen a makeover just using paint. We have also
created a lovely new Mediterranean-inspired courtyard in an area
that was ugly and had nothing going for it.”
I realised once again that projects such as Gill’s and Dale’s made
me the dedicated
Home
reader I’ve been for years, shamelessly
‘borrowing’ ideas from other people’s beautiful homes. Take a look
at Gill’s courtyard and kitchen (right) and turn to page 62 to find
out how Dale gave her bedroom a touch of French flair.
And yes, in this issue we are indeed celebrating all things
French. The three reader homes are simply stunning and Deon de
Goede’s DIY table seems sure to result in fisticuffs here in the office
– everyone wants it!

and Dale’s (page

reader years ago.

The Greigs’ garden, would you believe, boasts a genuine ‘potager’
(French kitchen garden) right in the heart of Johannesburg!
Then there’s the food: Reinée and her mom created a Mother’s
Day menu that made me long for the French countryside. I dream
of buying fresh ingredients at a market and cooking up a feast. I’d sit
on a patio at a rustic table with beautiful linen napkins and food served
in old dishes, ivory cutlery alongside. At dusk, I’d drink a toast with a
glass of real champagne, the cork of a Bordeaux wine safely tucked in
my suitcase to bring home as a keepsake.
Paging through this issue, I realise once again
that I don’t really need words. See for yourself, the
pictures speak for themselves. Enjoy!
Like hotcakes!
