Chocolate, cherry & almond wreath recipe

Bread week. I may have mentioned before, but I hate bread week. Me and bread making just do not mix. Nevertheless, I joined in anyway as I want to try and do every week this year! During the show on Wednesday, I decided I must be crazy as I was actually considering doing the technical for the third week in a row. But then chocolate bread won me over so I went with the signature. I’ve never really made bread from my own recipe so I went searching my old friend Mr Google and came across Paul Hollywood’s chocolate and cherry …

Chocolate & salted caramel whirls | Recipe

Who doesn’t love a summer of picnics and barbecues? Well, when we have a warm summer, that is! I know we do, and now we have a garden it’s great to get the barbecue out and be able to eat outside. The boys & I love having a garden picnic too and now we have a beautiful view to appreciate it more.

July Degustabox | Subscription Box Review

by StaceyUpdated on August 7, 2016August 8, 2016

After the new products we tried from the June Degustabox I couldn’t wait for our July box to arrive. I love delving into a subscription box and discovering what goodies are inside for me to try! The July Degustabox seemed to be centred around summery drinks with a few treats and of course healthier products to enjoy too. So what was inside the July Degustabox?
