Dear Frenz, Hope you all enjoyed your weekend with your family. Here, We also enjoyed our weekend with lots of fun and met lot of people from different countries in Sandton City. In Nelson Mandela Square ( This is the convention centre near the Soccer city n Ellis Park stadium), People from different part of the world gathered there and enjoyed their day by singing their country songs and lot of Merry Making with music. We are feeling the FIFA here, everyday there is matches in different places of South Africa. This FIFA matches are telecasting in "3D".

It was thrilling and different Joyable experience, We are going to watch another 1 match in 3D and 1 match in stadium.

My Hubby is supporting the team "Spain" and am Supporting the team "Brazil". Yesterday, I have painted "Brazil" flag on my face and We were walking towards the restaurant on the way the people from Brazil seeing my face they started to talk with us and they began to sing a song of their country slogans. Coming to the recipe, I am planning to post different recipes from FIFA WORLD CUP countries.
