How to Maintain Meal Planning During the Summer

March 22, 2022 in Food & Drink

Knowing what to do with Christmas leftovers is easy enough. Even if the weather is too grim to go anywhere, you can still separate the turkey and veg into boxes and make something up on the spot, which can help you save money in the kitchen. However, things change when the summer rolls around. Rather than being stuck inside, you’re out, you’re doing things, you’re seeing people and basking in the sunshine. As fun as this is, it also means…

Review: ZeroWater Filter

March 15, 2022 in Eco friendly, Food & Drink, Reviews

For a long time, my husband has been a water filter fanatic. He just loves them. I, on the other hand, have been a bit dubious regarding the actual effectiveness of water filters and have thought of them as merely a way to make tap water more expensive! As I have tried my best to give up sugar over the last year and a half (I was totally addicted to Pepsi Max and drank 2 litres a day!) when I…

Review: Brunch at Natural Kitchen

March 12, 2022 in Food & Drink, Reviews

I was recently faced with a bit of a foodie dilemma. I needed to find a London restaurant for brunch which would serve food which would satisfy both my omnivore sister and friend as well as my vegan self. There are lots of vegan places in London which serve up amazing food but finding one which did both was proving difficult until I came across the Natural Kitchen. With several locations around the city, Natural Kitchen is an all-day concept serving…

Build A New Kitchen At An Affordable Cost

March 10, 2022 in Home & Garden

Even before we talk about ordering a new kitchen, it is important to understand the meaning of planning. It is true that you can also buy ready-made kitchens that come in standard sizes, but if you have the option to adapt the kitchen to your personal needs, this is of course preferable.

Lifestyle Trends in 2020 That Will Stick Around

March 6, 2022 in Other

When people think of trends, they usually think of fads that will come and go in a few months or even weeks. For example, fanny packs have seen a recent resurgence in the past year. Many people consider them to be practical and useful in daily life, but others might see them as an ugly trend that should disappear as soon as possible. While the use of a fanny pack has once again died down, it has paved the way…

March 4, 2022 in Crafts, Other

I have to admit that May is one of my favourite months because it has two bank holidays! Do you do anything special over the bank holidays?
