🎂 Is there anything more 𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 than a ginormous, beautifully decorated and incredibly delicious Christmas cake? ⁣
⁣
We love the @patisserievalerie cakes that are made to create that wowfactor 𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗰𝗲 on your dining table this Christmas. ⁣
⁣
This is the 𝗠𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲’𝘀 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗮𝘀 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗮𝘂𝘅 and is vegetarian, made with chocolate cream and light chocolate sponge. Not forgetting the caramel and chocolate covered honeycomb. Yummy! ⁣
⁣
We got 20 portions out of this cake and everyone said how delicious it was. It’s perfect for when you have all the family 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 for a special occasion. ⁣
⁣
If you want to try one of Patisserie Valerie’s spectacularly festive bakes, then use my code for a 15% 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁 off the entire range: ⁣

🧡 Last night I made my very first 𝘄𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵 to hang on my front door and it was a brilliant evening. I never thought I would be able to make such a beautiful wreath… but I did! ⁣
⁣
Having some space to be 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 and catch up with old friends, whilst making some new ones, was just wonderful. Thank you @millfarmevents ⁣

☕️ I’ve spent the last 48 hours in a lovely 𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗹 for work. Conferences are brilliant for learning and networking, but they are so tiring. ⁣
⁣
I’ve eaten loads and drunk far too much coffee… I wanted to bounce on the beds and run around revolving doors (like in Home Alone) but this hotel didn’t have those kinds of doors. Just this entrance with 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘂𝗹, ornate, mirrors. ⁣

🤸🏼‍♀️ I’m very 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱 of this little lady. Not only has she just bagged her level 6 @gymfinitykids certificate. She’s only a couple of skills away from her level 7. ⁣
⁣
She started her 𝗴𝘆𝗺𝗻𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀 journey, nearly 4 years ago, just before the pandemic hit us. She was level 0 and had no experience of the equipment and techniques. ⁣
⁣
She 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲𝘀 this class and has made some great friends over the years. Whilst Mummy has spent the 2 hour sessions doing her studying, which helped me get through my degree. ⁣
⁣
If you want to join up to your local Gymfinity Kids then don’t forget to use my code 𝗠𝗨𝗠𝗠𝗬𝟭𝟬𝟬 to waive the joining fee, usually £15. ⁣

⛸️ We had a fab time on Monday evening at #𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗢𝗻𝗜𝗰𝗲, there was so much to do and we enjoyed the family fun time. The ice skating rink is huge, authentically cold and the lighting is perfect for showing off those skating skills. It was wonderful seeing the kids loosen up on the ice as they got used to it. ⁣
⁣
Outside the rink there are 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 rides, a food area with lots of choice and a festive land train (which we didn’t get time to go on boo). ⁣
⁣
There is so much to do here, an entire evening of fun for the whole 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 and it’s right on our doorstep!⁣
⁣
📍 Willen Lake, MK⁣
⁣
💵 𝗧𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀 are £14.90 per adult, £12.50 for under 16’s (Peak Time) this is for ice skating for 45 minutes. ⁣
⁣
🎡 Fair rides are by 𝘁𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗻𝘀, 1 token is £1.20 and you can buy more tokens with some great deals. The land train and wheel are additional costs at £9 per adult and £8 per child. ⁣
⁣
🚗 Parking is on site and is chargeable to Willen Lake there are signs in the car park telling you how to pay etc. ⁣
⁣
🍔 So much choice of 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱: German Sausage, chips, burgers, festive Yorkshire pudding wraps (they made me a Vege option) and sweet treats like fresh donuts. ⁣
⁣
🍷 The 𝗔𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗦𝗸𝗶 𝗯𝗮𝗿 is perfect for a drink after skating, I had a warm mulled wine and it was just perfect. They have a great choice of drinks in the bar and warm seating areas. ⁣
⁣
There is a lot to do at #WillenOnIce, it’s a great place to go with the family to kick off the 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗮𝘀 season this year! ⁣

👿 Noah’s been enjoying David Walliams book: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱’𝘀 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀. He said it’s a brilliant read and he loves the vibrant illustrations from Adam Stower. ⁣
⁣
I love it when the kids get 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗰𝗸 into a good book, you can see they enjoy it as they want to read. ⁣
⁣
This book is a set of 10 marvellously 𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗳𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 short stories and the pages are full of colour! ⁣

💻 Guess who’s got a 𝗱𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲? Oh yes, that is me. Over 3 years of hard work has led me to this and I feel so proud of myself. Starting a degree during Covid and homeschooling children and working is just insane when I think back.⁣
⁣
All that study time means I have a BSc Hons in 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲. I love that this is a universal degree, it means I can use it whatever my future holds. ⁣
⁣
As it’s an apprenticeship, through my employer, I still have some work to do to finish off. But my certificate is en route… the hard work is done. I wouldn’t have been able to do this if it wasn’t for my employer giving me time to study and Hubby for giving me the space to work into the evenings and weekends. It’s a lot of time. And I will be forever grateful. ⁣
⁣
I love learning and it’s something I’ve always wanted to do, as I left uni at 20 without my 𝗟𝗮𝘄 degree. It was my biggest regret leaving so close to the end. But I’ve done it now and that’s the main thing. ⁣

Rambo was terrified of them, he would shake and not eat for days around this time of year. I often made him a den somewhere, so he could hide. It’s not nice seeing your 𝗳𝘂𝗿𝗯𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗲𝘀 go through that. So we’ve never really embraced this occasion by going to a firework event. ⁣
⁣
Instead we sit and watch them from the glass windows, where we’re warm and safe. I raised a glass of 𝗳𝗶𝘇𝘇 to my furbabies up in heaven tonight. The night sky was deep blue and clear so I could see the beautiful stars inbetween the fireworks. ⁣

So I did a thing this week: I joined the 𝗴𝘆𝗺 again & have a PT! I’ve never done that before and felt like I needed it as I have no idea how to use all the equipment… ⁣
⁣
Today was my second induction, I was shown how to use some of the strength training equipment! So now I have cardio & strength 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 as part of my plan and I’m aiming to do it 4 times a week. ⁣
⁣
For the first time, in my life, I’m actually 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱 about doing this. I want to get fit and feel better about myself. Not 100% sure what has changed but I’m rolling with it. ⁣
⁣
🥪 After my PT session I came back and made myself this rather delicious sandwich. I had to level it up as a) it’s 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘄𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗗𝗮𝘆 and b) I was starving! ⁣
⁣
This is an air fryer 𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘄𝗶𝗰𝗵 using tiger bread, béchamel sauce, cheddar, spring onions and tomatoes. It took 10 mins at 190°c, it was absolutely delicious! ⁣

This is basically why I need to workout; because 𝗜 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘁𝗼𝗼 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵. ⁣

I think they both did a great job. I coloured in the 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀, photo towards the end. I love it. It’s great for relaxing your mind. ⁣

🌿 We explored 𝗗𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗹𝗲 today. We walked a few miles of the South West Coast Path and the views were amazing. ⁣
⁣
It was very wet, at one point we did have to turn our backs to it and just wait out the harshness of it. Walking up the cliffs soon 𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗱 us up again. ⁣
⁣
The views were absolutely 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲. These photos do not do it justice. ⁣
⁣
We had to 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗲𝘂𝘃𝗿𝗲 around some cows at one point too, the kids totally freaked out, but we got past without a cufuffle. ⁣
⁣
We managed 𝟲𝗸𝗺 of steep cliffs and staircases, which made it feel a lot longer. Kids did a fab job and my burning legs felt better after a 2 hour soak in the hot tub! ⁣
⁣
We definitely needed our 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗷𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀 today as we didn’t dodge the rain haha. ⁣
