Growing up my little brother used to adore peanut butter sandwiches, they were his number one choice for any meal. I could never understand why he loved it so much, the mere smell of it made my stomach churn. I will never forget going to…
I’ve really upped my exercise regime recently. I’m not going to lie, post our wedding in April I have not been working out anywhere near what I was and have noticed a change in my fitness, energy and body shape because of it. So in…
Recently I have received a lot of questions about what you can eat “other than eggs” for breakfast when following a low-carb lifestyle. Well, for me I believe the options are endless! There are so many different smoothies, muffins, porridges and granola’s you can make…
After a busy weekend at a beautiful wedding last weekend and then an incredibly busy week I was literally counting down the hours to the weekend. People kept asking me what we were up to and I was more than excited to say “absolutely nothing”. A…
It’s already the end of the week again and I have been looking forward to the weekend since Monday! It’s one of my best friend’s wedding down in the New Forest so I have my fingers and toes crossed that the sun shines for her. I…

It’s nearly the end of the week, so I thought that you all deserved a treat…. a chocolaty one. Two of my favourite things are mint and chocolate and when combined together they are simply irresistible. So I thought I would share my own mint chocolate…
For me this is the perfect teaser / starter for a dinner party; packed with goodness and bursting with rich intense flavour but remaining light enough to leave you ready and raring for a main and dessert. Gazpacho is best made a couple of days…
It’s been one of those totally manic weekends. I hosted a Paleo dinner party on Friday night, went to a Hen do on Saturday and finally spent Sunday with my wonderful Grandpa celebrating at his 90th birthday party. I am well and truly pooped and it’s only…
