AWSUMCelebrity Interview

“Tonight I stepped on this stage as Demi-Leigh NelPeters; I now greet you as Miss South Africa 2017.

Thank you.”

With these words, Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters stepped into her role as a national role model for the women of South Africa and officially the most beautiful woman in the country. AWSUM News chatted to DemiLeigh about her journey from the small coastal town of Sedgefield, where she matriculated with five distinctions at Outeniqua High School, to stepping into the national limelight.

Q Tell us about your journey to the Miss SA crown, which you won on 26 March 2017.

A I have dreamt of this my whole life, since I was just a little girl. At first I just admired the glamorous women walking on the Miss SA stage, but I have been inspired and motivated by their achievements. I have learned to work hard and do well at school and to push my limits. If I can make that difference to just one girl’s life, I would have done well. My dream came true – yours can too.

Q How did you feel when you were announced as Miss South Africa 2017?

A I was overwhelmed. It was an eight-month long process of blood, sweat and tears. The amount of work going into the campaign is staggering. I worked very, very hard for this, and am so deeply grateful that all this hard work paid off.

Q You have been in leadership positions and making a difference since you were at school. What were those positions?

A I was the first girl in my high school to be chosen as head girl of both my school and my hostel.

I was also elected as the Deputy Junior Mayor of the George City Council in Grade 11.

Q Tell us a bit more about your family.

A I grew up in two loving households. My parents got divorced when I was two years old and I am so lucky to have had four wonderful and supportive parents throughout my life. I never felt like anything was wrong, because this was my normal.

Q What do you do in your free time (if there is such a thing)?

A I like going to the gym for a good workout, and also to do ParkRuns. I love taking my two Yorkies, Benji and Baxter, for a walk. I also like reading – mostly fiction and science fiction, and also autobiographies. I have recently read The Alchemist and Charlize Theron’s autobiography.

Q What is your favourite food?

A I’m a real foodie! I am not fussy at all and eat just about everything. I love tucking into oxtail in a red wine reduction served with butternut and samp, and also barbeque pork rib with oven-roasted vegetables. And you can give me dark chocolate and good coffee anytime.

Q What do you plan to contribute during your reign?

I want to promote entrepreneurship and job creation for the women of South Africa. I hold a B.Com in Business Management and Entrepreneurship from North-West University and it will stand me in really good stead to follow in the footsteps of successful previous Miss South Africas such as JoAnne Strauss, Cindy Nell and Basetsana Kumalo.

Q What would you like to say to the young girls and young women of South Africa?

A When you believe in something, believe all the way. Don’t be scared to be different. Make your mark – you will find a way to to do anything that you are passionate about. When you look back, don’t ask yourself ‘Why didn’t I?’ Nothing is impossible. The word itself says ‘I’m possible’.

All things gingery!!!

You can eat it, you can drink it, it’s wonderful in sweet dishes and equally delicious in savoury dishes, the wonderful juicy rhizome that turns food into something special.

Ever since I was a little girl I have been in love with ginger, my father used to make bottles and bottles of fiery ginger beer and he could never understand how my sister and I could gulp down litres of the fiery stuff from a tender age we loved it, in fact one batch was left to long and I think we got tipsy from it.

My grandmother used to make wonderful sticky ginger bread loaves and biscuits every week, we used to cut thick slabs of ginger bread and spread it with a thick layer of cold butter and top it with cheese, it was heaven, I’ve yet to taste a gingerbread like my granny used to make, sadly she took the recipe to her grave.

There is An old Indian proverb says that “everything good is found in ginger” and its true it is used in foods, drinks and medicines.

My granny used to make us ginger tea when we were feeling nauseous, or serve hot milk sweetened with honey with grated ginger. Ginger has wonderful properties, its anti-bacterial, antiinflammatory and anti-oxidant, You can even add ginger to baths and foot soaks.

Because of ginger’s anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial action, it may help keep skin clear and free of blemishes. It may also help fight skin discolouration and aging, both when consumed and topically applied.

Ginger may even help your sex life. The famous Arab physician Avicenna wrote that ginger “increases lustful yearnings”, and ginger appears in the Kama Sutra. Rat studies confirm that ginger may help increase testosterone. But enough of that, let’s make some sweet stuff with ginger.

Sam Linsell, top South African food stylist and Drizzle and Dip blogger – has done it again with beer, this time creating a triple ginger and stout cake with a stout butterscotch sauce.

“If you are a lover of all things ginger in baked goodies like I am, then this one is for you,” she says.

“I have used three types of ginger which each add their own ‘gingery’ flavour dimension as they act as independent components.

They also do not overwhelm, so if you are a real ginger-head, you can add more.

The cake itself is not overly sweet with the stout bringing a smidge of desired bitterness to the flavour. A rich amber caramel sauce is made with the remainder of the beer.

Let’s Cook!!

Triple Ginger and Stout Cake Cooking notes: • Pre heat the oven to 180 °C and line a 20–22cm square or round cake tin with baking paper.

• If you are making this in advance, heat the sauce up a little before serving.

• Recipe makes a one-layer cake.

•

• • •

Ingredients Cake • ¾ cup Castle Milk Stout Chocolate Infused • 120g of butter • ½ cup (110g) brown treacle sugar or muscovado • ¼ cup golden syrup • 1 free-range egg • 1 tablespoon fresh minced ginger • 1 tablespoon finely chopped preserved ginger in syrup • 1 teaspoon ground ginger • ½ teaspoon salt • pinch of white pepper • pinch of ground nutmeg • 1¾ cups (230g) flour • 1 teaspoon baking soda

•

• •

•

Stout butterscotch sauce • 1x 340ml bottle Castle Milk Stout Chocolate Infused • 2 tablespoon butter • 1 ½ cups sugar • 1 cup cream • 1 teaspoon vanilla • 1–2 teaspoon/s sea salt flakes

Instructions • To make the cake, place the stout and butter in a small pan and bring it to boiling point. Cook briefly and stir until the butter has dissolved.

•

•

Remove it from the heat and allow it to cool a little.

Add the stout and butter mix to a large bowl with the sugar and golden syrup and whisk until it’s well combined.

Add the egg and whisk again.

Add all the spices and whisk.

Sift the flour and baking soda in by hand and whisk briefly until smooth (it will be fairly runny).

Decant this into a lined 20cm cake tin (square or round), tap the filled pan to remove and bake for 30–35 minutes. The cake is done when it’s springy to the touch and when a sharp knife pierced into the thickest part comes out clean While the cake is baking, make your butterscotch sauce.

The quantities make a little more than you need for the cake but store the rest in a sterilised jar and use with other desserts.

Bring the Castle Milk Stout Chocolate Infused and butter to the boil in a medium-sized pan and allow it to simmer for about 10 minutes until it has reduced by more than half. Add the sugar and continue to let this cook, stirring frequently until it reaches 110 °C on a sugar thermometer. This will take around 15 minutes.

When it has reached temperature, add the cream while stirring constantly. Carry on cooking this until it thickens more. Once it has reached 105 °C on the thermometer, it is ready. It will also thicken more as it cools.

Let the cake cool to room temperature and then pour the warm sauce over to serve. Keep any extra on the side to serve.

Hier word leerders blootgestel aan van die uitdagings wat boere in ‘n landbouomgewing ervaar, soos byvoorbeeld droogte, onkruidbeheer, swak beplanning, hoë insetkoste, misoeste en swak produkpryse. Die spreuk ‘Ver van jou goed, naby jou skade’ is een van die belangrikste lesse, aangesien die manne wat te min op sy ‘plaas’ is, ook die swakste inkomste genereer.

Broodknippies in Botterbakkies

Waterwese Ekspo

Hoërskool Punt het hierdie jaar ‘n kompetisie gehou om leerders aan te moedig om deel te neem aan die munisipaliteit se Broodknippies vir Rolstoele-projek. Leerders moes ‘n botter-bakkie versier en dan hul broodknippies daarin plaas om in te skryf.

Geskenkbewyse van die skool se snoepie, The Snack Box, is uitgedeel as pryse. Die wenners is as volg: • Mooiste versierde bakkie: Marijke Voigt • Meeste broodknippies: Eileen Swanepoel • Tweede meeste broodknippies: Danelle Human

Francois Gerber en Shania Fincham het op 6 Mei in Kaapstad aan die Departement van Waterwese se jaarlikse Ekspo deelgeneem.

Vanjaar se tema het gehandel oor die effek van verskillende tipes waterfiltreersisteme op plante. Daarvan kan ook afgelei word dat dit dieselfde effek op die mens sal hê.

Ons leerders, onder leiding van me.

Hurford (onderwyseres), het ‘n puik tweedeplek in die Wes-Kaap verower.

Punt se prefektekamer ingewy Punt se prefekte is bevoorreg om hul eie lokaal te hê waar hulle gedurende pouses en voor en na skool kan kuier en/of werk.

Oom Willem Koekemoer se ou voorgeskrewe boekstoor is verander na ‘n pragtige, goed toegeruste prefektekamer.

Baie dankie aan Dr. Potgieter en sy vrou, Alet, wat die kontrakteur, Danie Morkel-Brink, bygestaan het om hierdie stylvolle prefektekamer vir ons prefekte in te rig. ‘n Baie groot dankie ook aan Mnr. Imieel van Zyl wie se inisiatief dit was om hierdie fasiliteit vir die prefekte beskikbaar te stel.

Dr. Potgieter het die lint geknip om die prefektekamer amptelik in te wy. Dit het natuurlik gepaard gegaan met koffie en ‘cupcakes’!!

Punt-prefekte geniet die nuwe vergaderplek en bly altyd ‘Proudly Punt’!

Loumari Muller (hoofdogter), Dr. Potgier en Maurice Bernardo (hoofseun).
