SO SPRING is finally here, although in Cape Town we often still have four seasons in one day! But I can’t wait to be able to get back to braaiing outdoors – or rather to get my husband back to the outdoor braai. He’s the one who makes the meals in our home so it isn’t about me getting out of cooking; there’s just far less mess if it all happens outside. In this issue we’re giving you a taste of the fantastic braai recipes from our latest cookbook. The T-bone steak with marrow bones (page 26) made my mouth water – and that was just looking at the picture. Or try your hand at jaffle griddlecakes or even a dessert fondue prepared over the coals. We also have a…

THE recipes I developed for this braai book are old favourites but they’ve been given an interesting twist that’s guaranteed to impress your family and guests. Roosterkoek is always a winner served as a starter but here it’s cooked in a jaffle pan. T-bone steaks are served with marrow bones, the salad has been pickled and for dessert there’s fondue cooked over the coals. Deliciously different but still easy to prepare.

If you suffer from depression and apply for cover, the insurer will look at the kind of depression you have and how it’s being treated.

Depression is something most people don’t want to talk about. But in reality it’s a biological illness, and like many other medical conditions it requires treatment which may include medication. In recent weeks several cases of suicide have made news headlines, making it pertinent for us to break the silence and raise awareness. October is Mental Health Awareness Month which is why The Metropolitan Hope Hike is held on 11 October in Cape Town and on 25 October in Gauteng with media partners YOU, Huisgenoot and Drum. The hike is an annual initiative by the Ithemba Foundation (Ithemba means hope), a nonprofit organisation that aims to raise awareness around depression. There are three routes to choose from: 3 km, 5 km and 10 km. Children under 12 can do the…

YOU need food in order to survive and fortunately eating it is a pleasant activity. If you’ve helped your mom or dad in the kitchen you’ll know that cooking can be creative and fun. But it’s important that the food is handled and cooked hygienically. We have to maintain hygiene in preparing and storing food in order to prevent food poisoning, which is caused by harmful bacteria on the food. FOOD POISONING Food poisoning can have a noninfectious cause It can be caused by poisonous plants such as oleander, thornapple, foxglove or mushrooms Chemical substances can also cause food poisoning But most often bacteria are the culprit Bacteria are microscopic organisms that live everywhere Most are harmless (and some are even beneficial), but a few cause food to spoil and…

AN OPEN LETTER TO MY DAD SO, YOU have cancer. In one horrible moment in April my world shrunk to that word, bringing a blinding fear to my heart that would influence my every thought and move for months. Now, more than ever, I have no time for rudeness or stupidity. Instead I choose to love more intensely, forgive with abandon, live for my beloved children at school, my cherished animals, and you and Mommy. We’re separated by continents yet the lessons you’ve taught me keep me going, guide me morally and keep my head turned towards the sun when before I complained about things I now see were petty and inconsequential. Please don’t ever give up your fight for life. I inherited my passion for life and living for…

Jeff Scardino, a senior creative at Ogilvy & Mather in New York and teacher at Miami Ad School, was bored with receiving the same kind of CV and wanted to know more about why people had failed in the past. He decided to create a highly unusual CV, which he calls the “relevant résumé”, to test if it would get a response. In it he outlined all his failures instead of successes and even listed a number of people he knew would give him a bad reference. He put this modern-day application to the test by sending out a regular CV and his “relevant résumé”, using different identities but sending them to the same 10 companies. The response was mind-boggling – he received hardly any response to the regular résumé…

By PETRO-ANNE VLOK HEALTH fanatics will tell you to avoid processed food at all costs. The added sugar will grow your waistline, they say, while the higher sodium levels will send your blood pressure through the roof. A Google search of “processed food” paints a bleak picture. You’re met by articles warning you about the health risks of eating processed foods, or you’re told they’re slowing killing you. But is all processed food bad? And what exactly qualifies as processed food? Those who think they follow an all-natural diet may be surprised to learn that unless they grow their own produce, chances are they’re eating processed food every day. Processed food is defined as any product that has undergone a change from its original state, says Woolworths food technologist Karin…

THE hunky actor chats to us ahead of the release of romcom Tell Me Sweet Something, in which he plays a model desperate to be loved for his mind, not his body. Tell us a bit about the movie. It’s the story of an aspiring novelist and bookstore owner, Moratiwa (played by Nomzamo Mbatha) who hasn’t been able to write for a while. Then she meets a guy named Nat Masilo, who’s far from her type – he’s a model and doesn’t read at all. Up until their encounter she’s had both writer’s block and lover’s block – her previous relationship was horrible – but how they affect one another makes her want to give both writing and love another shot. Are you anything like your character? Not really, but…

PYRAMID By David Gibbins, Random House, R136* Following on from Gibbins’ highly acclaimed Pharaoh, Pyramid continues to follow diver and archaeologist Jack Howard in his quest to find a secret ancient city established by Pharaoh Akhenaten.

Jack and his team’s biggest hurdle is the imminent threat of religious extremism which is rampant in the Egypt portrayed in the book. This topical and relevant danger paired with the fast pace of the action make for a thrilling…

WHAT IT’S ABOUT Disney’s beloved heroes are now living peacefully in the kingdom of Auradon, while the defeated villains are living miserably on the Isle Of The Lost. When King Beast and Queen Belle’s kind-hearted son, Prince Ben, gives the villains’ children a chance to live in the kingdom, the kids’ evil parents hatch a plan to escape from their island. FUN FACTS • Cameron Boyce, who plays Cruella de Vil’s son, Carlos, had the ends of his hair bleached for the movie.

THERE’S something rather different about the new breed of catwalk queens. They don’t have the fresh-faced beauty Cindy Crawford made famous and there’s none of the chiselled cheekbones Naomi Campbell was known for. Instead they have pillowy pouts, large, pointy ears and the kind of features more often found in avant-garde art than on the catwalks of Paris and Milan. Yet, as these models are proving, there are many types of beauty – and right now their unique looks are hugely popular. Models such as Molly Bair, once told she looks like a cross between an alien, a rat, a demon, a goblin and a gremlin, is one of the hottest young stars in the industry. The 17-year-old American has done work for Italian brand Prada and French design house…

In response to the woman complaining about people not washing their hands in public toilets (YOU Say, 3 September), don’t be so judgmental. You have no idea what people carry in their handbag to cleanse their hands. Sanitiser and wipes are preferred by plenty of people. I’ve had a woman screaming at me when I left the filthiest public toilets asking why I hadn’t washed my hands. I decided to ignore her. I don’t have to justify myself or get into silly arguments. You might find our hands are a lot cleaner than yours which have been in contact will all those public gadgets. GILLIAN, EMAIL • Gran, you’re so right about poor hygiene today. I see it all the time. In a mall recently I saw two women coming…

HE’S been working on the hit show for years as a choreographer and thought he’d make a great judge. But he never really thought he’d one day occupy that seat, and was surprised when he was approached to be a judge. Turns out the producers made a good decision – by many accounts his often over-the-top antics and insightful comments have breathed new life into reality TV singing competition Idols SA. “I honestly never saw it coming,” says Somizi Mhlongo of his new position on the judging panel of the hit show. “There was a time in my life when I thought I’d make a great judge. But I never thought it would happen.” There was initial scepticism when his appointment was announced but the 42-year-old, often called SomGaga because…

Fruit and vegetables: Frozen vegetables can be more nutrient-dense than fresh vegetables “Vegetables are usually frozen within eight to 12 hours after harvesting, thereby preserving nutrients Fresh vegetables may have a long journey from harvest to home cooking, , thereby reducing certain unstable nutrients” says Dr Pieter van Twisk, a food scientist In some cases processing can improve the quality of food, for example canned tomatoes When heated during processing or cooking the cancer-fighting pigment Lycopene, found in tomatoes, becomes easier to absorb But check the sodium content on the label as some canned foods have a high salt content The same goes for the sugar content in canned fruit Meat: Freezing meat for a reasonable amount of time won’t affect its nutritional value, says Professor Arno Hugo, a food…

Write to Dr Louise, PO Box 39410, Moreletapark 0044, or email info@drlouise.co.za. WHY DOESN’T HE WANT TO SPEND TIME WITH ME? Q My boyfriend and I have been together for seven months. He’s not working but somehow has the means to go out with his friends. We see each other as often as we can but whenever I sleep over at his place I always end up alone and see him only when he comes home to sleep. I’ve tried to let him know how I feel but it always ends up in a fight and him telling me he is where he is today because his friends have helped him. He also lies about taking his friends to see people they need to see but then I’ll hear the…

COUNTDOWN A man hasn’t been feeling well so he goes to his doctor for a complete checkup Afterwards the doctor announces the results “I’m afraid I have bad news,” he says “You’re dying and you don’t have much time left ” “Oh, that’s terrible!” the man says “Give it to me straight, doc – how long have I got?” “Ten,” the doctor says “Ten?

He heated up our airwaves with the tracks Unbelievable and Into The Wild. Now the 28-year-old local muso, who competed in Idols in 2010, is back with a new EP, Into The Wild. We caught up with him via email in New York, where he’s now based. What can fans expect from your new EP? It’s an introduction to the music I’ve worked on since moving to the US, combining songs fans back home know and love (Into The Wild and Forever received airplay in SA) with new songs that capture the best of a collaboration between Joburg and New York. It’s a new sound and direction for the world to hear, but also pays tribute to the SA musical influences that started this whole adventure. What inspired the lyrics?…

IT WAS a bright February afternoon on Hollywood Boulevard. In front of me was a red carpet, TV cameras on cranes and a procession of the world’s most famous people, from Angelina Jolie to Tom Cruise. The 2004 Academy Awards were about to begin. New to Los Angeles as a correspondent for British newspaper The Times, I’d applied for credentials, rented a tuxedo, been prodded and sniffed by unsmiling security crews and their hounds, then finally handed a name badge and allowed to observe the proceedings from the side of the carpet. I’d been standing there for only a minute or two, notebook in hand, when I heard the voice. “Christopher! Oh, Christopher!” My initial reaction was to freeze – I’m rarely addressed by my formal name, unless I’m in…

UNTIL a few years ago he could barely speak a word of English after growing up in rural KwaZulu-Natal. But he’s been attending a tertiary institution as English as they come – and he’s planning to go back soon. Ntokozo Qwabe recently returned to South Africa after completing a master’s degree in public law at prestigious Oxford University in the UK. He’s heading back in early October to complete another – this time in public policy. His road to academic success has hit several bumps over the years, we discover when we meet the 24-year-old at his alma mater, the University of KwaZulu-Natal’s Howard College Campus. He’s wearing a crisp new suit and oozes confidence as he shares his opinions about various political matters of the day. It’s hard to…

THEIR six-year marriage was rumoured to be hanging by a thread, but we’re guessing things are a lot less tense now in the TOM BRADY-GISELE BÜNDCHEN household after a judge tossed out the American football star’s four-game suspension The 38-year-old wasn’t exonerated of claims that his team, the New England Patriots, cheated their way to victory earlier this year by using underinflated footballs, but the judge’s decision means Tom may now play in the upcoming NFL season His supermodel wife is probably saying a silent prayer of thanks too Sources say that while the couple – who have two kids, Benjamin (5) and Vivian (2) – have always argued, things escalated during Deflategate, as the scandal was dubbed “Tom became extremely stressed and filled with anxiety,” a source reveals “He…

SEEMS the rumours were true after all AVRIL LAVIGNE (30) and Nickelback singer CHAD KRUGER (40) are going their separate ways after two years of marriage The Complicated singer, who says they’re still “best of friends”, broke the news via a poignant message on Instagram coupled with a photo from their 2013 wedding The split doesn’t come as too much of a shock, given reports that the two Canadian rockers lead separate lives, with Avril celebrating her 30th birthday solo this year and Chad spotted partying in a club in Miami last month In interviews about her struggle with Lyme disease, Avril barely mentioned her husband despite thanking family and friends for their support MEANWHILE AVRIL’S EX REMARRIES DERYCK WHIBLEY (35) has found happiness again.

• Things are “just fine” between ROBERT PATTINSON (29) and his fiancée, FKA Twigs (27), after reports circulated things were rocky. “They haven’t drifted apart despite claims but they haven’t spoken as much lately because of his filming schedule,” a source says. The Twilight star is shooting the adventure action The Lost City Of Z in Ireland while the British singer is in the US. • LENA DUNHAM (29) is no fan of the Biebs! The Girls star has called out his latest tune, What Do You Mean?, saying it promotes rape culture. In it the 21-year-old sings, “What do you mean?/When you nod your head yes/But you wanna say no/What do you mean?” According to Biebs, the tune is about girls being “flip-floppy”. “They say something and they mean…
