Nacho Cheese & Purple Basil Gluten Free Gourmet Popcorn
I absolutely love popcorn. It's one of those brilliant snack options that surprisingly isn't all that bad for you and it's especially fun to make at home and to come up with your own unique flavour combinations. When Callum wants to help me make a snack in the kitchen, we often opt for popcorn. Plus, he always gets a proper kick out of seeing the popped kernels ricochet out of the machine.Last week, I took to Periscope and decided to show about 50 viewers how to make this popcorn.

Give the Gift of a Garden this Christmas
Thursday, September 24, 2015
Someone you love deserves a garden; give them one this Christmas with Plantui!
Do you have a keen gardener on your Christmas gift? Or someone who would like to be a gardener but who doesn't have the outside space or who lives in a city as rainy as Manchester? Then, stop searching for the perfect gift for them: this is it!
You've all enjoyed my Plantui journey so far, and I am such a believer in this smartgarden and enjoying it so much that I wanted to plant a little seed in your mind (see what I did there?) before you started your Christmas shopping!

#OrganicSeptember with Kromland Farm's Caramel Rooibos Tea
Wednesday, September 23, 2015
Celebrate #OrganicSeptember with the smooth taste of Kromland Farm's Caramel Rooibos Tea!
Generally, I like my tea strong and milky and with caffeine--an indulgent combination. But when it comes to this smooth, decadent Rooibos, no milk is in sight! Blended with caramel, the genius folks at Kromland Farm have made dessert in a cup.
And they're my new BFFs. (Hi, guys!)

Royal Princess Tour & Lunch with Princess Cruises
Monday, September 14, 2015
Celebrate 50 years of luxury on the seas with Royal Princess Cruises--follow along on my tour & lunch!
It's like an entire city, effortlessly gliding across the face of the water. Behind its facade of hundreds of balconies, in the heart of the ship lies more restaurants than you could count on one hand, pools, spas, bars, shops, theatres and more.
We were invited to take a tour of Princess Cruises's Royal Princess ship and sample a luxurious three-course menu. Over the course of our five hours onboard, the word luxury would escape from my lips time and time again. Before then, a virgin to the open seas and someone who had never set foot in a cruise ship, I was blown away by the sheer vastness of it, the luxury and the glamour.

Broad Beans with Serrano Ham
After a holiday, the bit that I find I miss most is the food. Especially when I've visited a culinary wonderland like Spain. So when the team at James Villas sent my hamper full of the ingredients needed to make Jo Pratt's delicious tapas recipe for Habas con Jamon, I couldn't wait to get stuck in!This lovely and quick gluten-free tapas dish from Jo's newest cook In the Mood for Healthy Food, a real page-turner of beautifully photographed food and a collection of recipes that skimp on calories but not on flavour.
Plantui: Everyone Deserves a Garden
Thursday, September 3, 2015
Everyone deserves a garden, no matter where you live and with Plantui, you can have one!
One of the most frustrating things about living in the UK is the sheer lack of sunlight we get. Living in Manchester, that number decreases further still. We have on average between 20 and 25 rainy days each month. And in September, October and November, we average fewer than five hours of sunshine per day.

Meet Your Match with TGI Fridays' Fabulous New Menu
Tuesday, September 1, 2015
A VIP evening at TGI Friday's, trying their fabulous new menu and meeting my match!
Renown the world over for being the place to go if you want a good time, TGI Fridays is one of my favourite restaurants. A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of visiting one of my local branches to celebrate the launch of their new menu. With a stint behind their legendary bar, whipping up my own cocktail and two over-sized courses of incredibly delicious food, I definitely met my match with this new menu.
