SUPPER WITH SARAH WILSON
I was on the bus the other day with Rob and saw the new I Quit Sugar Simplicious book in the window of a London book store and said “oh sick, her new book has hit the UK” and got a little bit of Aussie pride as let’s face it we are taking over the world; Kayla Itsines, James Duigan, Amanda Bisk and Lorna Jane just to name a few. Anyway that night weidly enough I saw that Sarah announced on her insta that she was holding a supper club IN LONDON whilst on her stay next week, so immediately booked tickets and then informed Rob of our 3 course sugar free date.

A NEW YEAR; THE SWEET ’16
I cannot believe it is actually January and the start of a new year! 2015 absolutely flew by for me (and I am assuming the majority of you as well) but what a year it was. Every year I say “oh best year yet for sure” which gets me thinking how insanely awesome my life will be when I am 80 if this best yet status keeps up. Life honestly couldn’t get much better than it is right now. Sure there are the ‘minor’ things that could change or need a little tweaking but I am Healthy, Happy and Having a blast! The three H’s! Hell yeah Continue reading “A NEW YEAR; THE SWEET ’16”
CHRISTMAS SIDES AND SALADS
This Christmas I am in London and will be celebrating my first (not white) UK Christmas but also Christmas Eve dinner as my partner is of Polish heritage. I am on ‘salad and sides’ cooking duties and whipped up these incredibly delicious vegetable salads to go with the meat. We had 5 people at dinner and had lots of left overs for lunch the next day. Would serve up to 8 people happily. Here are my 3 recipes; Continue reading “CHRISTMAS SIDES AND SALADS”
OH MY GINGERBREAD MEN
My favourite unhealthy biscuit on the market is a a two way tie between the Gingernut biscuit and the Monte Carlo – both Aussie Aarnott’s classics. But we all know that these highly processed biscuits are packed with preservatives and refined sugars that aren’t good for our waistlines when consumed out of moderation. So how can be have our biscuit and eat it too? By removing the nasty stuff and baking my healthy alternative ginger bread biscuits yourself. You can add a thumb print of homemade strawberry jam (recipe from the I Quit Sugar blog) for a cheeky festive touch and Monte Carlo effect. I shall call these my ‘Gingerbread men from Monte Carlo’ biscuits. Don’t forget to put a couple out for Santa with a glass of almond mylk too. He will love them! Not to mention how insanely incredible and festive your house will smell. Continue reading “OH MY GINGERBREAD MEN”

WHY I LOVE; #TEAM JAGGAD
When it comes to active wear there are PLENTY of options out there ranging from cheap and basic to outrageously priced designer wear (but aren’t they just oh so beautiful?) Whether they promise to suck your belly in, thin your legs or lift that butt a few centimeters – there are more important things to look for. Like what? Good question.
