Every night is burger night when they taste this g Every night is burger night when they taste this good 🍔

Tom outdid himself at the weekend with this vegan stack burger. He added a potato rosti, homemade burger sauce and a slice of @violife_foods It was bloody delicious. 

Were actively trying to cut our meat intake even if we're not fully committed to going completely plant based. 

Little steps right?

Lonely, chocolonley 🍫🍫🍫 This is my favou Lonely, chocolonley 🍫🍫🍫

This is my favourite chocolate in all the world and it is using all of my willpower to not just inhale all of it immediately. 

Tom got me this little @tonyschocolonely_uk_ire selection for Christmas. I've had it hidden so no one else can have any but I finally allowed myself a bar tonight. Myself, no one else.

What snacks do you refuse to share?

I love a beer, I really miss going out for one. But drinking on school day has had to stop this year. Enter my new favourite weekday beer. @luckysaintbeer is 0.5% and blummin delicious!

Are you a beer fan? Do you have any low alcohol/alcohol free beers to recommend? Or any other recommendations?

How many cups of tea is too many? Honestly, I re How many cups of tea is too many? 

Honestly, I reckon I have at least eight a day. I'm not too fussy when it comes to my tea but I do prefer it quite strong (stronger than this photo looks), no sugar and molten hot. Obviously, it's good if it comes with a biscuit or two too.

Have you seen @belowdeckbravo I was obsessed for a Have you seen @belowdeckbravo I was obsessed for a while. I had to take a break. 

In one episode they demand green juice. @steph.hop and I are so impressionable that we decided we needed it too! 

Thing is, I don't have a juicer but I do have a blender so green smoothies it was. I found a bag of frozen berries that I'd forgotten about so my smoothies are more brown than green at the minute but still...

My go to green recipe is spinach, ginger, lime, kiwi and apple. Blow my mind, how can I make them better?!

Happy new year. Here's to 2021. There's nothing I Happy new year. Here's to 2021.

There's nothing I can say about 2020 that hasn't already been said. It was one hell of a year. I returned to work from mat leave and ended up only being in the office about 9 weeks before we were sent home as a precaution on 10th march. Somehow life has stood still and zoomed by at exactly the same time. 

This new years eve isn't much different to my usual to be honest. It's always a quiet one in these days. I did tell Cece that she could stay up until midnight this if she wanted. She didn't even get to 8 o'clock. The reprobate was sent to bed at 6.30. I wasn't letting her stay up. 

Here's to health, happiness and live music in 2021!

I've never tried jackfruit before and this Keralan I've never tried jackfruit before and this Keralan jackfruit and green chilli curry that we had for dinner last night was incredible. I'm not vegan (I love cheese too much) but do try to choose plant based meals a few times a month. 

It was another @goustocooking recipe and I love them because they're so easy to follow. 

Not an ad but if you want a discount code let me know and I'll send my referral code to you. 

Do you eat plant based? What's your favourite veggie/vegan meals?

Doughnuts are Christmassy right? 

I'm not sure who enjoyed decorating them the most, Cece or Tom!!

My First Roller Derby Bout

Me holding Cece in full roller derby kit

Saturday was a big ol' day for me. I strapped some wheels onto my feet and threw myself around a track at my friends in front of people that had actually paid to sit and watch. In short, I played in my first ever public roller derby bout. It was exciting and terrifying in equal measure. Before ...

Pret A Portea At The Berkeley Hotel

I feel like unless you're looking for The Berkeley Hotel you could miss it. Wilton Place is just a short walk along Knightsbridge from Hyde Park Corner Station but if you weren't looking for it could easily pass it by. Once you step inside the doors though it is hard to deny the luxury of the ...

Walking In A Winter Wonderland

In my 34 before 34 list (part one and part two) I mentioned that I wanted to take Cece to see Father Christmas. Well, we went to Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park on Sunday and she had a cuddle with the big guy in red. Whoop! To be honest, I think I know I was more excited than she was but he was ...

Since then we settled down, got married and had a baby. Long before the baby came along we became a ...

Hard Rock Couture Exhibition Comes To London

I used to love the whole idea of the Hard Rock Cafe as a kid. It was always a huge exciting treat to visit one and I have some lovely memories of going to them in London, New York and Toronto with my family. I guess because there isn't one in Liverpool and it always part of some sort of holiday when ...
