Your 20 years old Take He good morning my darlings I hope you’re all well and having a lovely day so far I’m in an excellent mood unsurprisingly because it’s a blue sky day it’s the weekend and we are doing family gardening this weekend so my brother’s here um L is coming over shortly and we

Are going to be Snowdrop splitting the boys are sorting out um bark mol and compost across all the beds and Lilla and I are going to be splitting snow drops which is a job that we like to do every year I’m going to turn the coffee machine on and start to make some

Coffees cuz I think the boys are going to be stopping for a coffee break in a second so I’m really happy to say that we are working again with the financial times which is really a collaboration that Charlie and I absolutely love because we have been subscribers to um

The digital edition of the financial times for a little while now it’s really important to us that the news that we consume is accurate and incredbly well researched because it can be really overwhelming with the amount of news sources and news information that we are exposed to whether that’s as soon as you

Wake up in the morning you turn on your phone um and you see so many articles on social media it’s really hard to figure out which bits of information you’re consuming are actually true there’s a lot of misinformation out there um and also editing it down to the information

That you personally want to consume I think I read a fact the other day that by the time we in this day and age hit lunchtime we have consumed more information than our great ancestors hundreds of years ago would have consumed in their entire lives and that

Just absolutely blows my mind there is so much information out there so to have all of our news in one place and to know confidently that it’s accurate and well researched is so so important to Charlie and I so that’s why we personally get the digital subscription to financial

Times we’ve got it on our phones I know that during his coffee break now Charlie will be having a flick through the latest articles to stay informed um but I thought I would share a few of my favorite features and a few of my favorite articles lately so what’s

Really clever about um the financial times is so at the moment it’s showing ft weekend and I find that these are slightly more um maybe light light articles times like now when I don’t necessarily have time to sit down and read at this exact moment I just save

Them and then it goes to my saved feed and I can read them later maybe when I take a little coffee break later or if I’m on the train going into London or something so on my personal feed these are articles that are relevant and interesting to me based on articles that

I’ve read in the past so I normally find that the kind of articles that I get shown um within the food and drink category the style category the UK agriculture category um and travel whereas when Charlie opens his up he’s probably going to get Sports politics

And things like that so it can be really really personalized there’s so much news at the moment um about Farmers I know that Charlie and I have been talking about it a lot in Vlogs but there’s been so much movement with what riverford have been doing trying to encourage the

Government to discuss the way that supermarkets pay Farmers more fairly and there was a really interesting article if I go to my saved feed so these are ones that I have saved to read a little bit later there’s an article here about how there are apparently some plans to

Change and switch up the labeling for homegrown food products including High Animal Welfare standards which links in quite nicely to the fact that we went to the farm shop this morning you know it’s really important to Charlie and I to try and support local Growers both a health

Point of view but also because we want to support our local farmers um and this article you can actually listen to which is really really helpful because if I’m out in the garden and my hands covered in soil then essentially it’s like a continual regularly updating News

Podcast that we can listen to when we’re busy here’s ch um I was just saying about how we like to get the financial times because the articles are relevant to us well researched um I saying that my favorites are like fashion travel how to spend it and food and agriculture

Well that’s the thing and I think well first and foremost and we’ve spoken about financial times before and that’s why it was a great opportunity when they approached us because we we were already very familiar with financial times and it’s genuinely one of the few new sources I believe to be trustworthy

Nowadays yeah um yeah there’s so many there’s so many and you always have to I think it’s like anyone you follow on Instagram anyone you you listen to on their podcast sadly I think it is important that you consider what what’s their aim here what’s their goal if it’s

If it’s Tim Spectre it’s to achieve I think he wants to go down as a big name for achieving like a lot of greatness in health which is a great goal I think the financial times and and you know you can look up it’s it’s privately owned but um

It’s a lot more reliable in terms of the news sources you see a lot more property what I’d call proper journalism you can sit and read a Financial Times article like I did over breakfast yesterday or even this morning with my yogurt um and you can read one article for like half

An hour 14 minutes it’s like a mini it’s a prop it’s proper journalism and this is the thing there’s so many great journalists out there and I think they’re they’re now gravitating towards financial times but for me what I like about the financial times also is there’s just interesting articles rather

Than a lot of other articles you might come into contact with other news outlets that you just feel like either clickbait or you know a like a couple of paragraphs yeah and often regurgitating another you know quoting another news outlet and I do I think I think the app

Is brilliant yeah do you know the one thing that I would I am starting to think that I would love is to have the print as well because they do the weekend you get it on the app too no I know but I love I don’t know there’s

Part of me that that the weekend bit is really cool school yeah um pink Pages um and I was saying how we like to look at Travel articles as well so there’s one and I have been talking a lot about wanting to visit Tuscany this summer oh

Yeah and um the as Char C of Italy the cots of Italy as Charlie said it’s just so well researched you know that someone has literally spent like days or weeks researching these articles so every bit of information that we find on the ft is incredibly um accurate it feels genuine

Doesn’t it yeah so this is an article that we’ve been that we were debating over breakfast earlier in the week looking at all these different beautiful places in Tuscan Tuscany that we want to visit and then there’s style articles have you seen the one all about gay no

I’ve got it say never too many gay what I would say is on the Ft there’s a lot of other stuff that’s quite entertaining so like this is one that’s actually haven’t read but how the 92-year-old Snack Maker behind Biscoff captivated gen Z and it’s a whole ask about the

Lotus biscuit which funny enough we had at the LI shoot yesterday and it’s like a relatively unknown 92y old Belgian company is climbing up the global Snack Maker Snack Maker rankings outshining Rivals and Captain ating gen Z because of social media that’s and they’re a bit like a an example of like Stanley

Stanley so there’s almost going to be a list of these like old school brands that were okay and were kind of successful kind of probably dying out a bit that are now like utilizing social media to become almost trendy again yeah um but yeah I look I think I think if

You’re someone if you’re someone that’s interested in expanding your horizons and knowledge and if you’re someone that listens to a lot of podcasts I think the ft compliments that approach really nicely yeah um and I think it’s something you can dip in and out of it

Gives you things to chat about as well like we’re going out for Sunday roast with friends tomorrow and it’s articles that you find on here they’re good conversation starters as well and even there’s an article here that I’ve saved and I’m actually going to send this one

To my mom because it’s all about pickle ball and that’s a sport that she’s um got interested in lately so you can send articles to friends um you can download them you can listen to them and that’s all part of the digital subscription um we like the how to spend

It section as well don’t we have I I showed you this article the other day about changing your health fate so this is one about all like hubman labs and things you can do in London am yeah so I read obviously I read outlive in um

January at the beginning of the year and health is something that’s very important to Charlie and I it’s something we love to consume a lot of information about and the um wellness and fitness section on the Ft again just incredibly well researched like if I was

To find all of these clinics in London it would take me hours and hours and hours but someone’s done the hard work for me um so yeah just whatever your interest whether it’s politics or sence I think that’s the and you can and and look we’re still learning right we’re

Still learning with the app um but I think what’s interesting is obviously you’ve got your my topics my ft topics so I think that’s quite a nice way of sort of curating what you know your your interests we’ve obviously done well-being Fitness UK agriculture travel style food and drink food and beverage

Agriculture M I actually am going to add Health to that and I’m going to add politics to that MH as with anything our sort of Mantra now is to question everything and I think even when you’re restarting in the Ft if it’s something you’re like oh that’s very interesting

But let me just cross reference that and of course we have a mobile phone we can Google things cross check them and then it yeah it’s just a great source of information I find that a lot of the Articles as well they give you two sides

Of the story so the one that I was mentioning earlier about the Homegrown produce the article is saying how it’s become a debate in Parliament as to whether we should label things a certain way um my sometimes I think that I’m very blinkered I think that things

Should be obviously we should label when things are homegrown British produce why would you not want to then this article presents the other side of the argument as well but it’s good for both of us to have more of a broad um different opinions on and that’s that’s why we

Love look of course we read the comments on YouTube videos and largely everyone’s super supportive and I love people saying no actually I don’t agreee with you on that because of this I don’t love it when people I don’t agree with you on this and don’t give another reason

Because that’s not how to build an argument but I don’t want to have debates but it all the time but it’s interesting hearing other people’s perspectives and 100% we’re always learning we we’re not we don’t think we’re always right we don’t think that we know everything and it’s just I think

In the world we live in now it’s just very important we’re all as informed as possible and that’s why it’s important when you when we when we watch things and when we consume fictional stuff I mean our big thing at the moment our big

Sort of um what’s the word uh the big uh thing that we keep nitpicking on is the fact that all the health information in like an A&E section of a movie is incorrect like for God’s sake get the CPR bit correct so that people are learning from even if it’s a film you

Know um relevant accurate information there you go anyway so that’s a little snippet we could go on and on as you can imagine as to why we love our digital subscription so financial times I’m going to leave a link in the description box down below have a little look um and

If you’ve got one already then let us know what articles you’ve been loving lately what have you got saved and maybe we could share like in a few of the upcoming Vlogs just some information yeah share some of our favorite articles cuz honestly it’s just what we what we

Think we know it’s just a tip of the iceberg and I just love to dig so much deeper which is something that we can do with our well and I think look I think something that we’ve not our knowledge is very limited on his is you know

Financial side of things which is why we’ve got Toby and why we’ve talked about financial advice I used to think the Ft was literally just like stocks and Sh I did as well and I think maybe it started out like that but I can’t be sure but obviously it’s a lot broader

Than that however there is you know a lot of information about that side of things yeah um and I think it’s important to cons that we learn more on that side because you can you the information in the Ft can actually help have a real Financial uh benefit to you

And your decisions you’re making with stocks and shares and that side of things but that’s something that we’re still very new to it is indeed right darling you get cracking um I’m going to make some parmesan crisp crisps and as soon as we’re in the oven I’m going to

Start doing my snow drop splitting okay so we are going to be having for lunch the um pars and potato soup that I made at the end of the last Vlog but I really want to just kind of elevate it a little bit as you know I love to do with my

Soups so one of the things I grabbed from the farm shop this morning was a new parsnip and I’m going to make some parsnip crisps to go on top so all you need is a parsnip salt and pepper and some olive oil and to make them really

Thin I’m actually going to use a potato peeler to get some really thin layers of parip ready to put in the AGA the hottest one for around 20 minutes and hopefully that should do the Trick something else you’ve seen me make a few times before my breadcrumbs or um croutons so simply olive oil salt and pepper and then some Italian seasoning I’m going to pop these next to the parsnips in the arur and they should get nice and crispy while I finish preparing the

Soup okay my parsnip soup is on a low heat just slowly heating through and I’ve added some nice double cream in there I’ve got my seed mixture here and I’m just going to pour small amount medium amount into this saucepan and I’m just going to lightly toast these cuz that’ll be

Delicious on top of the soup Well well if that’s not a scrunches bowl of soup then I don’t know what is so we’ve got a homemade paret potato and a little bit of apple soup toasted seeds homemade croutons homemade little pnip crisps don’t worry this is my one and then homegrown micro greens it smells

Scrumptious and we’re going to eat it outside in the Glorious Sunshine Yay well lunch was a lovely success now coming into the greenhouse these are the bits that I planted just the other day with Jake and I thought I am actually going to leave them in here because even on a day like today it’s just so lovely

And warm I need to do a little bit of Tiding up after our photo shoot gosh it was so typical that day it was so miserable and then on a weekend when I’m not shooting anything it’s beautiful blue skies but so got a few tasks I need

To do lots of Dead Heading needs to be done here don’t know whether to just plant these bulbs now and um obviously these ones are still going strong and looking beautiful but these bulbs could probably be planted ready for next year and look at these beautiful crocus they

Come out and show us their beautiful bright pollen when the sun shines I’ve nearly got a full heart here of small L roll tubes to do a few more sweet peas I’ve got these ones out sweet s pea modern Grandy Flora um but anyway before I do that

While it’s still sunny I’m going to do a little bit of planting so I need a little TR and some Gloves [Applause] Oh just taking a quick break from the gardening and I’ve done a little bit of a flower refresh I find that um roses if you give them a really good chop and freshen the water then sometimes they can give you a whole second lease of life these are the roses that Charlie’s

Mom bought us last weekend and they were looking a bit sad so I’ve split them up into smaller little posy glasses and now they look a lot happier my cake stand is suspiciously empty so I think I might see if I can do any kind of banana chocolate muffins or something in just

Over an hour the boys are going to come in and watch the rugby so it’ be good if I can have some of those on the go ready for that um but I think Charlie wants my help spreading some of the compost on the herbaceous borders so I’m going to

Make myself quick coffee and then get on with that Dickens is looking very snuggly he’s been really helpful out in the garden I couldn’t have actually done it without you so thank you very much I got my sleeves so gross rubby I’ve had to pop a fresh jum on okay luckily I’ve

Got everything here that I need to do the lovely um banana and oat they’re kind of cinnamony nutmeggy walnuty delicious muffins of course I’m just going to do it in the thumb mix because it’s so much quicker and easier this should only take me around 10 minutes so let’s get Started Well I filmed that from start to finish and it was a grand total of 11 minutes of footage so that is how quick it was to whiz these together in the thermomix I’m now going to bake them for around 20 to 25 minutes don’t mind my dirty

Yorkshire pudding tin and they should be ready look at that just in time for kickoff Alexa set timer for 20 Minutes so this wonderful production line that we’ve got going on here the boys are bringing the bark mulch onto the beds as Charlie said they are going to very much deserve their burger and steaks and then L and I are just kind of maneuvering it into position making sure

It’s not covering up too many of these little plants coming through and this is going to just give the borders a really nice aesthetic finish protect from any late frosts bring some nutrients into the beds and also when you’re down on your hands and knees um spreading the

Mulch it’s quite a good opportunity to just see how your plants are doing so for example I did notice here one of my loopin is getting a bit sluggy eaten just as typically I said the other day only the other day that my lupins don’t typically get eaten there seems to only

Be some varieties cuz this one here is doing absolutely fine touchwood we’ve got a lovely little bit of afternoon sunshine the rugby starts in about 20 minutes but now I just need to go and check on my muffins and I think they will be very happily snuffled up by our

Team of hardworking gardeners this lovely light okay let’s go and check the muffins we don’t want them to burn beautiful helor gorgeous M I think 5 minutes More I think the gardening Squad are fully deserving of these chocolate banana uh oat cinnamon nutmeg I’m sorry Dicky you definitely can’t have any little muffins they only took 15 minutes total to make let’s go and deliver them to the hard [Applause] Workers look at this gorgeous afternoon that we’ve got ooh the melted chocolate on these Yummy got your Rewards well the muffins have gone down an absolute treat and I’ve just undone another order from Health um thought I would share it with you because lots of you made the most of the discount code that I shared last time so obviously it was something that you likeed to see the

Discount code I’ll again leave it on the screen um and leave everything linked down below but I was really happy to see this brand on the website um because I’d seen them on Instagram but I wasn’t aware of any way I could get them in the

UK until I saw them on health so this is um it’s kind of you know I love to do Jazzy different lattes and matches and different nice cozy warming drinks so I’m going to give this a try now it’s the blue lavender latte I think that just sounds amazing and they’re made

With um various lovely adaptogenic items which are nice and healthy and wonderful so can’t wait to try that and then last time I ordered from this brand anima Mundi I ordered the rose chai and it is so yummy and this time I’ve ordered the Blue Lotus I think if I remember

Correctly is this the one I think this is oh yeah relaxing and calming tea so this is a really good one to take before bed apparently and on this website you just get loads and loads of huge variety of different health food brands otherwise I don’t know you’d probably

Have to go to loads of individual websites to order I keep seeing again on my Instagram explore page how good organic Tallow is as a skincare product I guess like a super natural version of like an8 hour cream or something so I got this unscented version good for like

Cuticles dry skin some people even use it as a balb after you know your actives so we shall see I mean intrigued uh whenever I do a health order I always add some dir tea because I’m obsessed with it I have every single morning I

Needed a top up of my chager which is the energy mushroom oh it literally says up there didn’t even realize that um yeah I pop a scoop of that into my morning coffee every single day and then I’ve also got a top up of RI Rishi has

Loads and loads of different um health benefits I definitely recommend the Fantastic fungi documentary on netfli if you want to know more and also just um have a listen to the podcast that one of the co-founders Simon has done because it really goes into so much detail about how incredible mushrooms

Are I’m always amazed to think that penicillin came from a mushroom it’s got so many so many health benefits and then this is actually a gift for Lala who sat in the living room watching the rugby so I won’t explain what it is I’ll just let you see it

Because I think this will be quite handy and something that she’ll enjoy doing so I’m going to give it to her now and light the fire so there we go my little Health oh forgot to mention this this um looks like similar packaging to my latte items but it’s actually a bath product

Agent nure it’s a rose infused coconut milk bath powder I thought that sounded Heavenly soothing hydrating softening calming and promotes a feeling of relaxation two or three scoops in a running bath soak for 30 minutes that sounds heavenly and I love this packaging so there we go just a really nice selection of Products It’s a very chilly Frosty Sunday morning well the Frost has just about melted it was only minus one so not a not a major Frost but we’ve just come out to admire the borders I know they don’t look that exciting but now that they’ve got the

Mulch on they look a lot tidier we are heading out for a dog walk while the skies are blue see the sunshine just creeping onto the pond it’s rather nippy but we’re going to take the boys up to witon what a beautiful morning What I put in my pocket mag what do they put out the Hat socks is that how it works it’s silent humans these them have given the slightest of you’d hear it though surely have this in this for ages surely we would hear it I don’t know cuz it’s

Maybe really highp pitched if anyone’s dogs are reacting to this the Vlog let me know oh I can hear that yeah there we go that’s and neither of them have even turned around feels like I’m wearing ankle weights cuz there’s so much mud on my Wellies oh dexi turning around yeah Hello my darlings it’s a couple of hours later we’re back from our dog walk um and just really appreciated getting out into the sunshine into the fresh air this morning I did plan on doing a pelaton but sometimes n Nature Calls that’s an expression for when you need

The L isn’t it sometimes um getting outside calls and the boys hadn’t been for a walk yet this weekend so we thought that we would take them for a really nice walk up to witon as you saw it was exceptionally muddy I felt like I had ankle weights on because the mud on

My Wellies was so heavy so the this afternoon we are heading to the bell in charlbury one of one of three great pubs in chury I feel so fortunate to live in the middle of an area where we’ve got so many Fantastic pubs around um us Charlie

And I were saying um we were talking about where I where I grew up where I used to live and how we’d have to travel for so long so far if we wanted to go to a really fantastic Pub and yet where we are here we’re totally spoiled there are

So many Fantastic ones um and even not just pubs like where we went last night the cotwall guy that was scrumptious food um in a far more relaxed setting not the cheapest I must say we actually figured out and we were chuckling to ourselves that the steak last night per

Ground was actually more expensive than hawksmore in the middle of London which is notoriously um premium let’s say but we love the cotal guy and I I think it’s a fantastic place for brunch they do great baps they do great cinnamon rolls um they do really fun pizza nights so

Yeah it’s a really nice play place to go to actually had a message on Instagram as we were leaving um a lady very kindly said she didn’t want to interrupt our meal but she is a YouTube follower so if you’re watching then hello I hope you

Had a gorgeous meal there um I’m very polite and considerate of you I think um we were we were sat Charlie and I and my mom and my brother we were sat on a very small table like all facing inwards so probably not looking the most

Approachable but I just I love when I bump into those of you that watch the videos here in the cotw and that you’re you’re um following our recommendations because yeah I just I’m glad that you’re experiencing this part of the world that we love so so much um so yeah we’re

Heading to the B no not the bull the Bell there’s the bull and the bell in chury both are great but we’re heading to the Bell shortly for a Sunday roast with George and Petra we’re kind of getting into a routine at the moment of cooking a Sunday roast one weekend and

Then going out for a Sunday roast the next weekend and obviously we had all the family here last weekend so it’s definitely time to be fed and have someone else do the washing up so that’s why I’m popping some makeup on post shower I really needed a pamper shower I

Woke up this morning and this this last few days I’ve not been feeling great I’ve been I’ve had a I’ve been calling it mount kilamanjaro on my chin a really really big blemish the biggest one I’ve actually had in quite a while um and I think I’m pretty sure it’s stress

Related and you might be thinking what an Earth are you stressed about um just remember that I share with you a maximum of 3 hours of my entire week and there was a lot that um I don’t share and um yeah I’m not going to go into detail about certain things but um

Yeah there’s there’s something that’s um I don’t want to talk about online but yeah just remember that you don’t see everything here on the YouTube videos and people can get low people can get sad and you don’t always need to know why so anyway we shall we shall move on um

But brows are looking good if we’re looking for a positive forever grateful to my little be brow yeah so I just haven’t wasn’t feeling 100% um my best this last couple of weeks really and I don’t know if you guys notice it as well but I really

Notice it in my YouTube videos um I feel like you can tell when my energy is not tiptop the last few videos I personally have felt that it’s been really obvious that something’s been off with me um but but I don’t know if you guys have

Noticed that as well but I I personally think it’s been quite obvious but I know I know what’s going on anyway um I think that stress has led to to this gilaman jaro on my face um and also time of the month and just feeling my body holds on

To everything around that time of the month every bit of water that I drink every bit of chocolate that I eat I just hold on to it um so I’ve just not been feeling my best bodywise and I think you know what everyone goes through those feelings whether you do reformer pilates

Four times a week and see a non trainer twice a week and eat a fairly good diet everyone goes through those times when they’re not feeling great so I guess the reason I’m going off on this little tangent is to say that I appreciate that sometimes I do just show like picture

Perfect Rosy you know everything’s great going to the organic food shop going to do my reform of Fes but sometimes everyone gets those down days and that’s okay and um we put some fake ton on we put some nice makeup on and we try and make ourselves feel good spending time

Outside spending time with friends and family that for me is my best tonic so that’s what we’re doing this weekend so I popped some gradual Tan on um hopefully that will I know it’s kind of sad but that will actually make me feel so much better in my body I’d also

DMI but I’d also not shave my legs in like two weeks um and to be honest since I did all of that hair removal laser hair removal it’s it’s not permanent and if you stop for a while I’ve not kept it up over winter then

Your leg hairs do start to grow back a lot lighter yes and nowhere near as dense ly as prior to doing the laser hair removal but they definitely do come back Major overshare TMI but I’m freshly leg shaved I’ve got my fake tan on um I’ve got freshly washed hair so

Yeah that is my little self-care for a Sunday lunchtime I feel like all of my mascaras have gone off in like the space of a week I think I’m going to persever with this one cuz it’s the best it’s the Controlled Chaos mascara from shiso but

I’m actually going to have to throw away my Merit I’m pretty sure it’s actually come to the end anyway um but I used it yesterday and it’s just really gone all claggy so that is now in the bin this one it it is really good the justo and

It delivers so much product onto your lashes and really separates them out but it’s not Mega lengthy ing so then sometimes oop got a bit of foundation on the back of this sometimes I like to mix it with bare minerals oh my gosh I can’t hold anything Bare

Minerals strength and length and this one has Ultra separating and lengthening there we go what time is it oh my goodness we need to leave in 15 minutes and I don’t even have dry hair I was actually going to curl my hair but I definitely don’t have time for that soon

As it’s still wet this is honestly just such a savior it’s the one that I got from cult Beauty it’s the dry bar cult Beauty I mean it is quite frankly a monstrosity it’s so ginormous but it is lightweight and if you’ve got a lot of

Hair and you just need it dry and styled within 5 minutes then this is wonderful okay can I get my hair dried in 5 minutes because I also have washing downstairs I need to hang up before we leave the house in very quick outfit of the day as we are

Running out the door I’m triple Holland coopering with my new um they’re kind of like the Joda leggings dark green knit and then the fabulous Blazer which is officially my new favorite thing really smartens up an otherwise casual look okay next stop the Bell O well this is the worst Lighting in the entire world feel like I’m about to go in for a business meeting it’s um very new for me wearing Blazers but oh it’s my mle very new for me wearing Blazers but um this one is so lovely and warm

It’s almost that transitional I mean today’s been cold but I knew I wasn’t going to be spending much time outside but I think as we go into spring when you just want something over your shoulders but you don’t necessarily need a full coat I think I’ll be getting a

Lot of wear out of this so I’m really glad that I tried it on in the Holland Cooper um Boutique so we had a lovely Sunday roast with George and Petra if I was being critical I would say that their cifl cheese was not creamy enough it was just kind of like cauliflower

That had once seen a cheese sauce but had been left dry out a little bit that would be my constructive criticism I just think you can’t really beat a Charlie iron Sunday roast like the way that we do it I say a Charlie iron Sunday roast normally it’s me that does

The cauliflower cheese and it takes some beating it really does um we did have pudding but we’ve stopped off at the chipping Norton petrol station to fuel up and we’re going to go in and get some trol chocolate because it is required um and I I have this weird

Thing where I actually can’t eat chocolate or sweets by themselves I have to eat them together so I have to take a mouthful a bite of chocolate and then a bite a mouthful of sweeties very weird I know um but I have a lot of like food

Pairings that I have to have together right petring petring is done let’s go and get some snck what have you gone for in the mood for fake chocolate fake chocolate yeah double decker and boost and boost ooh oh I saw someone the other day and they had um they had chocolate flavored

Mini Eggs they got Mini Eggs sorry not chocolate flavor they were um chocolate orange flavor Mini Eggs Elite level chocolate can you see Mini Eggs anywhere can’t see them anywhere back home again and one of my children has has been a very naughty boy yes I’m talking about you you

Absolute taror so we do not allow our children to go upstairs in this house for sausage dogs it’s not really good for their backs um and also someone once told me that dogs they like to patrol their area so if you give them too big

An area like a big house it can actually just make them anxious so basically Dexter and Dickens essentially live in the kitchen the living room and their bedroom except for when we are in the drawing room and then they’ll be allowed in there but they’re not normally allowed through the kitchen door which

They’re perfectly happy with however Charlie and I just came home Dexter was where he was meant to be in the kitchen but Dickens was nowhere to be found and then we just hear thud thud thud thud thud thud and that is Dickens trundling down the stairs where

He has been for the last 4 hours don’t know how he got there what sorcery because obviously we shut the door um so we obviously just did a little look around the house to see what gifts you’d left us in various bedrooms there was a gift in the pink bedroom thank you for

That and then I went up to my dring room if you can say anything about Dickens it’s that if there is any food in the house he will find it he has been known to go through suitcases go through bags go through cupboards if there is food

Somewhere my little piglet will find it so I go into my dressing room and the clothes that were neatly piled up on top of my poof are strewn everywhere and this is really bad a box of chocolates that was underne underneath all those clothes way up in my dressing room on

The floor but you obviously didn’t like them did you cuz you only ate one but what he did like and I thought that was it I thought that was the extent of the damage I then went into my bathroom and a certain sausage has GED their way through my pink Champagne

Truffles that I had actually hidden away as a little gift for someone oops yes it is Nord into the champagne Truffles and you clearly enjoyed those didn’t you because you didn’t leave any champagne truffles left well I think you might have a bit of a poly tummy tonight so

Mommy’s going to have to keep an eye on you that is my bunny anyway it’s only half past 6 um I’ve got fruitella and mini cream eggs to enjoy this evening as we watch trigger Point um and I’m going to take off my gel nails I had these done before

Valentine’s Day and they are grown out they’ve not chipped in the slices but they are grown out I don’t know if this is going to work it’s the Green Flash LED nail polish remover but this is OPI so I don’t know we’re going to give it a try and from my manicures collection

I’ve also got these little like clip on things that are meant to help you keep your cotton pad in place so that’s what we’re going to do um and then I might just I’ve got the stuff that I used before our wedding last summer this got my nails really

Strong cuz I haven’t had a break from gel in quite a while this is called the OPI repair mode and it’s really good if you need a break from gel and you can do like 5 days to really get your nails strong this is the best you put it on

It’s kind of like water it dries I would do two or three coats a day for about 5 days and then honestly your nails are just so strong and then I’ve got a cuticle oil here as well so I’m going to do a little bit of pampering don’t know

Where Charlie’s Got to but I’ve got two sausages leaning up against me um Charlie can’t bear the noise of nail files on my nails so I’m going to get that bit done before he comes down it sounds like he’s on root and then we’re going to have a very chilled Sunday Evening
