I would happily cook for any gluten free vegan with allergies. But I dislike cooking for people who only eat boxed meals/take out. It's like cooking for 5 year olds. Perhaps this is because I am the one with dietary requirements? It's still a challenge and a good one at that...

In my circles, if I didn't serve coffee and tea, no one would ever go home! In certain cultures, it is rude for guests to leave before tea is served- thus making it rude to not serve the tea the whole night. I would imagine this faux pas would lead to a really amusing story though

It's so sad that we have to be reminded how to behave like kind individuals. I don't understand why some feel entitled to share their concerns or perceptions so freely without an adept editing hand to weed out the cruelty. Seriously? You wanted to call child protective services on a family who houses their children, feeds and cares for them? Geesh, maybe AT/Ohdeedoh readers need to get out more and see the real world.

I think this house will all its tall windows and doors would make my 5'11'' self feel like a hobbit.

I would love to see a source list for this kitchen! I can never find such adorable things in Gauteng! *Love*

jralph: the bars on the windows are an unfortuante South African evil. I hate my burglar bars, despite have some of the most modern beautiful ones around. But it keeps the baddies out... so the bars are actually a small price to pay.

Obviously those negative comments stem from those who have never stepped foot in South Africa. Well Done Heather and Paul- it's a lovely break from the standard South African 'designer' home.
