*insert generic status about the fact it’s snowing* ❄️ Did you have fun in the snow today?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
There was so much snow over in Towcester today, but funny how I was receiving messages of some areas of Northamptonshire hardly being touched by the stuff! I forget how big our county is!⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We’ve had a wonderful day, we went for a big walk and grabbed hot chocolates, made a snowman in our back garden and had the utter joy of getting warm inside whilst we watched it fall outside! It’s been a lush Sunday considering the circumstances 🥰⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If it hit you in your area of Northamptonshire, I wanna see your photos!! Tag #NavigatingNorthants so I can see your snow day! ⁣Tell me what you did during your Sunday snow day! ⛄️🤍 ⁣⁣
⁣
📍 Wood Burcote, Towcester ⁣

Did someone say Meze takeaway? 🤤⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ W

Did someone say Meze takeaway? 🤤⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We wanted to shake things up for our Friday night takeaway, so I jumped at the chance of ordering a Meze kit from @mymezebbq! We went for the 4 pitta kit which is suitable for 2-4 people!⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I like that the kit gives you freedom over what meat/veg you want to put inside, so we ended up going all out with both chicken thighs and halloumi and when you pour that marinade over it... 😍 game changer!⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I can’t wait to try their food when their back on the road with their street food van - but this is a cool way of enjoying Meze at home - Josh and I really enjoyed making it together and it was really easy to follow (they have plenty of hints and tips on how to perfect your Meze on their Instagram 👌🏼)⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Would you give this a go during lockdown? Delivery and click & collect available!⁣

AD - PR Gift 🥟 There’s a new dumpling delivery service in town and it’s DELISH! Swipe for before and after of dumpling goodness!⁣
⁣
We’ve had one of those nights tonight where we both didn’t fancy cooking (I mean, it’s Thursday, right!?) so thank goodness I saved this box of dumplings from @destinationdumpling_uk which we’ve kept in the freezer - so handy! 👌🏼⁣
⁣
We received a box of mixed Pork & Pak Choi and Vegetable dumplings with easy cooking instructions and a sauce of choice! They were very easy to cook and fuss free - and not to mention how delicious, fresh and succulent they are! 😍⁣
⁣
📍 You can order via their Instagram and collection is from Towcester, NN12 only with pick up time and location confirmed once you order!⁣
⁣
Save this post for dumpling goodness! Have I tempted you? 😁⁣

AD - PR Gift 🧁 I would say these are lockdown treats, but let’s face it, I want cake all the time! Anyone else? 😂⁣
⁣
@amys_cakes92 is a small cake business based in Towcester and she’s got some gorgeous treats available for door stop deliveries! She’s nailed the selection as we loved everything inside - especially the red velvet cookies 😍⁣
⁣
It’s so lovely to see these small businesses still thriving, even with the current circumstances! Check out Amy’s Instagram page to see what she has on offer! ⁣
⁣
January diet? Nah, it’s all about the balance! Are you being good or letting yourself have a few treats? I don’t blame you whilst we’re in lockdown! 😉⁣

THIS TIME LAST YEAR! Oh how I miss eating out. Anyone else? 🤤⁣
⁣
I’m using this lockdown to get fit, go for long walks (am trying to hit my 10k steps a day) and lose a bit of, what I call, 2020 weight! But when some of my fave local restaurants open again, you bet I will be visiting them all! 😍⁣
⁣
It’s crazy to think this time last year, we were sat in @juneplumfood with no clue what was going to happen just a few months later! This is on my list of places to visit again once lockdown is over! ⁣
⁣
Where’s the first place you’re heading after this? We will still try and support local as much as we can!! ❤️ ⁣

Cooking at home, but make it Northamptonshire 🥘

Cooking at home, but make it Northamptonshire 🥘 have you seen the new Northamptonshire sauce cookbook!?⁣
⁣
One of my go-to recipes when we need something tasty but guilt free is this Diet Coke chicken! Oh my goooood god, if you love your Diet Coke (which I don’t hid I do) then this is the recipe for you! 😍⁣
⁣
I love it so much that I added my own twist to it - putting @jeyes_of_earls_barton and @friars_farm_chutneys_preserves Northamptonshire sauce in it! It gives it a good kick - you can check it out in the new cookbook (which I am featured in!!) which is now on sale! 👌🏼⁣
⁣
All funds go towards the Children's Wards at Northampton General Hospital and they are well on the way to reaching their target - you can buy the book on the Jeyes Northamptonshire sauce website (www.jeyessnorthamptonshiresauce.co.uk) 😋⁣
⁣
Would you have a go at this? (Excuse my dirty, sauce covered pan - can’t help that! 🤣)⁣
