Kale Crisps

I have seen so many people making Kale Crisps and to be quite honest with you I have never been interested in trying them because I am not the healthiest of people!! But for some reason I decided that I would give it a go, it was extremely easy and surprisingly tasty!!

You will need:

-A few large handfuls of kale
-A pinch of salt & pepper
-A pinch of chilli (Optional)
-A generous amount of olive oil

Lets get started:

First of all you will want to pre heat your oven to 180 c.

Then grab your kale and wash is under running cold water in a colander, and give your kale a little bit of a massage!! As weird as that might sound it helps bring out the flavour.
While you're washing the kale you want to ensure that you remove all the stems so that you're just left with the leaves

Transfer all your clean and massaged kale into a bowl and coat it all in your olive oil, salt, pepper and chilli mix.

Once all the kale is nicely coated you can lay it all out on a baking tray and bake for around 15-20 minutes or until nice and crispy, I like to flip them around a little half way through baking just to make sure that they are all nice and evenly crispy.

Enjoy!!

Brighton Food

I went away for the bank holiday weekend to Brighton and I can honestly say with my hand on my heart that I had some of the best food I've ever had!!
It was a weekend of beautiful, scrumptious food, to the point that myself and George found ourselves enjoys food that we do not like!!!

If you want to see more of the weekend head over to my youtube channel for my blog of the weekend
Brighton Vlog

The first place I want to talk about is The Breakfast Club, I have wanted to visit this place for quite some time. I first heard about it though Zoe's aka Zoellas vlogs! 
And to say the least I am extremely happy that we went!








I went for the Sausage Bap and it was honestly the most divine breakfast I've ever had! looking at the pictures is making me so hungry! Look at how beautiful this food is!!
George had gone for the All American Pancakes which had pancakes of course with Canadian maple syrup, sausage, bacon, scrambled egg and potato. I am not a huge fan of american pancakes at all but I tried some of Georges and genuinely liked them! I could have eaten a plate of them and I kind of really want to!! We will definitely have to go back some time because I want to try so much more of there food, and the restaurant was such a gorgeous, radiant place.
The Breakfast Club gets a huge 10/10 from both myself and George.

We had then gone out for dinner to Al Duomo and again did not fail to please us!! I reached a point where I was so full but I didn't want to stop eating, once I had finally given up George polished off the rest of my meal as well! We also got a table outside which was really pleasant and luckily the weather was perfect.





For our starters George had the Calamari Fritti, Deep fried squid rings, which I did give a go but I am really not a fishy person so it didn't go down too well with me but George finished his all off and seemed to really enjoy it.
I decided to order the Arancini Di Riso, I have never had anything like this but it really caught my eye on the menu, basically it is a rice ball stuffed with mozzarella & peas, with a bread crumb coating and lightly fried with a tomato salsa, this is one of the most mouth watering dishes I have ever eaten, I would quite happily say that is a new favourite of mine, I cannot explain the flour in words but if you are ever in Brighton and find yourself at Al Duomo then I highly recommend this stater.







For our main we had ordered Pane All'aglio, which is cheesy garlic bread, but even something so simple was perfection, we could have defiantly eaten more of that, however saying that I did really struggle to finish my meal! I had ordered the Spaghetti Carbonara, this is a favourite dinner of mine and this pasta was fit for a king oh my word, I got to a point where I felt completely full but I was not stopping just because of how amazing it tasted! George had gone for the Cozze Meuniere, which is fresh muscles cooked with onion, garlic, white wine and cream served with chips, like I said before I am not a fan of fish so I didn't try any of the muscles but George finished them in a heart beat so he must have enjoyed them greatly! I did however steal a few of his chips which were cooked beautifully and with the white wine sauce!!! I couldn't stop eating and we will 100% be returning to Brighton so that we can go back to this restaurant!


We also ordered a bottle of wine with out meal, George said I could choose the wine so I decided to go for Valpolicella, this was a very soft, light and fruity wine which went perfectly with our meals. I want to get my hands of a few bottles of this wine!

Everything about this night was perfect and I could not have possibly enjoyed my food more! These two places to eat are incredible and I strongly advice that if you're in Brighton to give these restaurants a go, you will not regret it!

Superdrug Haul

I may have accidentally bought a few more items than intended when I popped into Superdrug to pick up a few things that I needed. So why don't I just share with you the products that I didn't really need but needed!!

You can see my YouTube video for this Haul HERE!!

I am so happy with my bargains from this little shopping spree! I would 100% recommend going into Superdrug and try getting your hands on some of the deals.

Firstly I picked up a few packets of make-up wipes which is all I intended on buying when going into superdrug!! I picked up two of the Simple kind to skin Limited edition make-up remover wipes. The limited edition packaging is so cute and I bought these for around £1.30 each which I think is an amazing price!!
I then saw that a selection of Simple products were on sale for buy two get a third off, so obviously I had to buy two!! I decided to try two new products. Firstly I got the Micealer Cleansing Water, I have seen so many people saying that they are absolutely loving micealer waters so I thought I would jump on the band wagon and give one a go! I then also picked up a Foaming facial cleanser the main reason behind this one was because it was a foam and I love foam products ahah but I am intrigued to see how well his product works for me.

I then FINALLY picked up the Real Techniques complexion sponge. I have tried so many beauty blends and for some reason avoided the real techniques one, I have loved all my previous beauty blenders but they just were not amazing for me!! Now that I have bought this sponge I can totally understand why everyone is so in love wight them!! The quality of this sponge is completely different to the rest of my beauty blenders and works 100000X better and it was only £5.99 so if you are thinking of trying a beauty blender I would defiantly suggest the real techniques sponge.

Finally I picked up this Maybelline - IT-LOOK box set, which I am seriously chuffed about I paid £30 for this box and got some brilliant products inside that I either already have and love or products that I have wanted to try for a very long time, so to say the least I was very excited when I saw them. They had 3 different box sets so you can pick and choose which one suits you best but I chose the Red Siren box!

And this is what was inside...

The Nude Palette
Master Precise Eyeliner - Black
Lash Sensational Mascara
Master Sculpt Contour Kit
ColorSensational Lipstick - Divine Wine
Master Shape Brow - Soft Brown

I hope you can understand why I am so happy with this box! To get all of those amazing products for £30 is a steal, so go into your Superdrug and see if you can get your hands on one of these box sets!
