I was recently inspired to enjoy some of the simpler things in life (who takes much inspiring to do that anyway?!) after buying “The Simple Things” magazine whilst shopping in Sainsbury’s on my way home from a lovely weekend away in Norfolk.

You may or may not have read by now that I have recently been taken on by Hotpoint as their passionate food blogger and roving social media reporter for their Kitchen Experience stand at the BBC Good Food Show 2014. This is one very exciting partnership and I’m thrilled skinny to be involved – I’ll be taking to the floor and casting an eye on the latest food trends, gadget testings and Celebrity demos through

With luxury travel being the best it has been in many years, it was only a matter of time before the likes of Twitter took over our lives in many different ways. As you may know by now, I am a Twitter ADDICT… you can follow me here! Not only can you connect with your clients, friends, even your favourite celebrities through a Tweet, but you can now also check into and interactive directly with your hotel using the magic
