    Keto crisps: where to buy in the UK

    11/12/2020 /

    I wanted to share with you my favourite brand of Keto crisps. Keto crisps are hard to come by in the UK – there are substitutes, such as pork scratchings and Cheesies but sometimes you just want a crisp. A few weeks ago I discovered the MyProtein Protein Crisps. Wow! I am obsessed. They are hugely popular so go in and out of stock all the time, but it’s definitely worth buying them when they are in stock. They come in two flavours: Sweet Chilli & Sour Cream and Barbecue. I slightly prefer the Barbecue flavour but they are both delicious. Obviously, being low carb, they aren’t made of potatoes, but they…

    Why Seniors Shouldn’t Rule Out Online Dating

    09/12/2020 /

    During the current pandemic, many people of all ages are spending time pondering which direction they want their lives to go in the future. For some this might have sparked thoughts of a change in career or a move to a new location. For others, this time of self-reflection has made many people begin the search for companionship in the form of a new relationship. The online dating world has changed during the pandemic.

    7 Reasons Why You Should Date a Gamer

    30/09/2020 /

    I am quite a rare beast I think… I am a 35 year old, female, mum of two, gamer. I have been ever since I was little – I started on a ZX Spectrum and over the years I’ve owned a SNES, Playstations 1 to 3, a Wii, a Wii U and I currently play on a Playstation 4 and a Switch. My husband however, apart from the occasional game of FIFA, could not be less interested in video games. As a gamer, I thought it would be fun to compile a list of the top seven reasons why dating a gamer is awesome: 1. You can get involved too…

    4 Things to Consider When Your Kid Buys Their First Car

    11/08/2020 /

    All kids are excited to get their very first car, but unless they’ve spent years doing their homework and researching the best first cars for teens, they are going to need some assistance. Even if they have done their homework, the chances their dream car is slightly out of budget, not to forget inappropriate, are pretty high. Because of this, you must consider what your kid needs from a first car.  New Versus Used  The first thing to consider when buying a car, especially one for your child, is whether you want to purchase an old car or a new car. Unless you have more money than sense, there’s no…

    Has lock down changed the dating scene forever?

    19/05/2020 /

    We have now been in lock down for what seems like forever. In fact, when I try and picture what it’s like to be in a crowded bar or in the audience at a gig I can barely imagine it. It’s hard to believe that we were all doing those kinds of things all the time only a couple of months ago. Life perpetually at home has become normal. One aspect of life that has changed massively has been the online dating scene. For one, I’m sure every dating site has seen a massive upswing in new members as most of us find ourselves with more free time. Those who…

    Keto Margarita Recipe: super simple, only 3 ingredients

    17/05/2020 /

    I would describe myself as a frozen margarita fanatic. Before I book a Mexican restaurant, I always check their menu to make sure I can scratch my frozen margarita itch. On a hot sunny day, I always, without fail, crave an ice cold, super slushy, tart and tangy, frozen margarita. But – confession time – until recently I had never attempted to follow a frozen margarita recipe myself, let alone a keto margarita recipe. I tend to stick to wine and beer when I am drinking at home, never branching out into cocktail making. Whenever I looked up a frozen margarita recipe I was always put off because it seemed…

    Dreaming of a Post-Lockdown Jeep Adventure

    08/05/2020 /

    I’m sure most of us are dreaming of the things we will do once we are allowed to go back to living a normal life. There are the simple things like meeting a friend for coffee, having play dates or simply a casual visit to the shops. Then there are the bigger dreams, personally I have enjoyed planning some global adventures that we hope to go on in the future. One of the things I would love to do is go on a Jeep adventure… I’ve always loved Jeeps, in fact I remember asking for one for my Barbies when I was little. Modern days Jeeps not only retain the…

    Keeping the Spark Alive When You Are Apart

    06/05/2020 /

    These are strange times that we are living in. Couples who don’t co-habit are forced to be apart for weeks on end. There are also people who have been chatting online to strangers with a view to meeting up, who have now had to put their plans on hold. I am very lucky to be living with my partner during these crazy times, I would miss him so much if we couldn’t be together. I thought it might be useful to share some tips on how to keep the spark alive for couples who are apart. Start with the little things I believe that it’s the small daily connections that…
