    WIN: The Street Food Cook Book

    January 19, 2016 /

    As we’re all aware, street food has exploded all over Britain in recent years. Tasty, affordable food on the go fits in with people’s busy lifestyles, and allows us to try things we may not find otherwise. Following this, late last year, The Street Food Cook Book was released. I’ve had a sneak peek at it, and it’s fantastic – bursting with vibrant pictures, great recipes, and introductions to the vendors who created them. This book showcases ambitious and passionate foodies who have brought local ingredients and top-quality cooking to the streets, creating amazing flavour combinations in front of our eyes and dishing them up at affordable prices. I’ve just made (and devoured) the roast…

    COMPETITION: NOSH – Breakfast in a Bottle

    May 18, 2015 /

    NOSH Super Brekkie is a new breakfast drink / meal in a bottle. (I’m not sure I want my meal in a bottle, but there you go.) It’s a healthy yoghurt / fruit / super food style breakfast which is kind of a mix between a yoghurt pot and porridge, with fruit. The aim is that it’s a super quick breakfast for all you busy people who are eating as you race out the door, rushing out to your busy and very important lives. The contents are good – it’s all really healthy, natural stuff, with no added bad sugars or anything. The drink is meant to keep you full until lunchtime, due to all…

    A Cracking Competition

    March 11, 2015 /

    I have been quiet on here for a while, as it’s been super busy with tots, work and evil illnesses (boo). However, I am now emerging out of the deep, dark of winter and clawing my way into spring. To celebrate this I have a tasty competition on the go, involving CHOCOLATE. It’s posh chocolate too – from Hotel Chocolat – ooh! Have a gander at this beauty: The winner can choose any Extra Thick Egg that they like from the beautiful range from Hotel Chocolat. I, of course, went for the slightly goofy one above as an example, but look, they do sophisticated ones too: If you fancy winning…
