Do you wanna build a snowman? ☃️ We finally g Do you wanna build a snowman? ☃️

We finally got some snow today. The girls were so excited to go out and play in it. We even managed to make a little snowman and make sure he stayed safe given the current situation.

Weekends are made for pancakes 🥞 A short stack Weekends are made for pancakes 🥞

A short stack of banana pancakes topped with berry yoghurt, @jackpotpeanutbutter  golden syrup and blueberries.

I love these as a quick and easy breakfast and it's the easiest recipe ever. 

- 1 banana
- 2 eggs 
- 3 heaped spoons of oats. 

Mix them all up and pop them in the pan. Easy! 

What's for breakfast where you are?

Another vegan burger actually, an onion bhaji burger to be precise. 

It was so good but definitely needed more mango chutney. Although, I think there's not much in life that can't be improved with a huge dollop of mango chutney. Amirite?!

Pizza is one of my favourite foods and this one is a good one. Tom made the dough from scratch and I'm not entirely sure he'll be doing that again soon 😆

Not vegan thanks to the mozzarella and goats cheese but absolutely bloody delicious.

Tulips are my favourite and these yellow ones have really made me happy the past few days. 

Don't wait for someone to buy you flowers, buy them yourself and revel in how they make you feel.

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?

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.

Get Your Dabbers Out – Review: Players

17/07/2019      Leave a Comment

*I was invited to Players for food, drinks and a night of bingo for review purposes. Although my meal and bingo were gifted, all thoughts and words are my own.

I have worked in the gaming industry, primarily online bingo, for something like five years now and up until I went to Players I’d never had an evening out playing bingo! In fact, apart from a school fundraising night about twenty years ago, I don’t think I’d ever played bingo! Ridiculous, right?

Well, I corrected this a few weeks back when I visited Players in Camden and what a night I had.

Starting with cocktails (of the non-alcoholic variety for me) with quirky, tongue in cheek names like the Blue Rinse and a DJ blasting out singalong, dance along, feel good tunes the party atmosphere was set from the beginning. It certainly helps that the bar is pretty Instagramable and has its own selfie wall! Plus, if you want to earn your bingo wings and get stuck into some grub while you play, there is a monthly rotating offering from some of the trendiest, tastiest pop-up restaurants.

Moving from the bar into the hall and the party just keeps on going. With a live band, sparkly caller and Brenda the old-school ball machine this isn’t your granny’s average night at the bingo. Especially as there’s not just money up for grabs but every full house comes with a magnificent prize. These change depending on when you go but on my night there was a fridge, a drone and an inflatable canoe complete with all the safety gear needed to set sail immediately!

Your bingo book and dabber are included in the ticket price and with loads of cash prizes to be won, you could be covering your spends in no time. As well as traditional paper book bingo there’s a chance to speak to the bingo gods and play techno bingo. This uses the board on your table and there’s only one full house prize of £20. Even if you miss a number, the bingo gods know if you’ve won – that’s what happened to me. I thought I was one number away when in fact I was a winner and the bingo gods announced my table number to let me know! I was heavily pregnant, I’m blaming baby brain!

For my first foray into bingo in real life, I had an absolute blast and it was a brilliant bonus that I walked away with £20 winnings too. Now that I’ve had the baby I’m keen to go back and sample those cocktails for myself!

Tucked away around the corner and at the back of the Mecca Bingo Hall in Camden, Players is a great night out. Tickets are £12 and they’re open every Thursday and Saturday from 7pm.
