Do you love biscuits? Do you love chocolate? If the answer is a big yes (it is for me!) then I'm very excited to share that my @calmcocoa Calm Cookie Hot Chocolate boxes are back from next week. They're a bit of an ode to my Aussie roots as they contain 3 chocolate dipped Anzac Biscuits (vegan or buttery). Each box comes with a 2-serve sachet of hot chocolate - or you can choose a 'just the bickies' option.⠀
💚⠀
Just get your order in by Sunday night for next Tuesday's (Aug 3) bake 🍪 🍫 😀 ⠀

There's something kind of magical about eating a peach that has grown in the front garden - in Mid Wales! We only have two on the tree so we are definitely savouring this one (the other one is still ripening and I'm keeping an eye on it to stop the squirrels getting it!). I've been reading up on how to help with the pollination next year, so we might even get three 😉🍑💚 ⠀

The warm weather definitely makes me want to eat slightly lighter food (or, in kind of a contrast, home made curry 😁). When I'm organised, I try and cook up large trays of roast veg to cover a dinner and then to top #salad the next day. Even in the hot weather, I quite like to warm them up again a little bit on top of salad (I find it helps with my digestion) but they are also rather yummy cold. I also think next day roast veg and chunks of good cheese are just a lovely combo on top of salad leaves!⠀

We're still discovering so many magical little spots around our home. Finding places for Taz to have a little cooling dip en route is kind of important at the moment too 🐶. This is the River Severn (or Afon Hafren in Welsh) just up the road from our house. There are so many amazing things locally we haven't even been to the coast yet! It's nice not to have to rush the discovery 😎 ⠀

It's definitely hot out there! I've been enjoying early morning walks before it gets too warm - especially as Taz needs to stay out of the heat. I'm also still smiling from a totally lovely chilled weekend with @jennifer.earle and her lovely little family. It's so nice to be able to have visitors as the rules in Wales now mean we can have overnight visitors. Woop! Plus it's great to be able to share our new home. The sunshine is the perfect excuse to just slow down a little, take in the scenery and enjoy some very delicious pastries from our local baker @andysbread. And they're even better when shared with friends 😊 👌 💚 ⠀

Today is WORLD CHOCOLATE DAY!!! Woo hoo! it's the

Today is WORLD CHOCOLATE DAY!!! Woo hoo! it's the perfect time to celebrate this beautiful food that is the source of so many happy memories, moments and emotions. ⠀
🍫⠀
I think I've been on a bit of a lifelong chocolate journey, from the Cherry Ripes of 70/80s Australia to understanding so much more about the huge variety of delicious chocolate we now have access to. And I love the way it can connect us to people and places all around the world.⠀
🍫⠀
Whenever I travel (which is really mostly just the UK in recent years, even pre-Covid) I tend to buy some locally made chocolate, from truffles to bars. I think it really helps give a sense of place. One of my favourite experiences was at the @marouchocolate cafe in Ho Chi Minh City, which by pure coincidence was just around the corner from where we were staying. I discovered that a proper hot chocolate that's FULL of chocolate is one of the best ways to manage jet lag 😁. On the same trip we also got to visit a cacao farmer and see his set up, which was pretty amazing.⠀
🍫⠀
I still feel kind of honoured to be able to work with chocolate and I never, ever get sick of tasting it! And in celebration, I'm offering 15% off the entire @calmcocoa hot chocolate range today (Wednesday) only. Just add CHOCDAY15 in the checkout 😘😘😘⠀

There's something very pleasing about a freshly baked #brownie... lots of fun experimenting with a gluten free ground almond brownie with chunks of @pumpstreetchocolate (a mix of 72% Madagascar and 85% Ecuador 💚). I've never done it with chunks of chocolate on the top but I'll definitely do it again! 🍫🍫🍫 #brownies #baking #chocolatelove #realchocolate #cacaolove #cacao #chocolatemaking #mindfulmoments #mindfuleating #theartofslowliving #seekthesimplicity #f52grams #huffposttaste #mindfulliving #thesimplethings #feedfeed #glutenfree

When I was growing up in Australia, our traditiona

When I was growing up in Australia, our traditional Sunday lunches were a spread of lovely breads, cheeses, salad, homemade dips, olives (which I hated when I was little!) and meats. I guess it was kind of a version of mezze. We are a big family so they were rather noisy affairs, but there was no rush to leave the table as it was Sunday so we all slowed down a bit. ⠀
💚⠀
We recreated this (minus the noise of a big family) over the weekend with some lovely local nibbles - and it was really comforting. It's also made me realise just how much I'm missing being able to share this experience. Food is about so much more than just nutrition and fuel, and even taste. It can be such a joyous and connecting experience. One of the things I most looking forward to once life gets back to post-Covid normal is being able to eat together again - but I will appreciate it SO much more after the last 15 months! 🙏⠀
