Lough Erne Food festival

Image
Last Saturday my family and I went to the "Lough Erne food festival" in Enniskillen organised by the council,which took place at the broad meadow (across from the lakleland forum). At the event there was a huge variety of stalls from cake stands to healthy lemonade stands,there certainly was a good choice of products to purchase at the event.I was very impressed by the high standard of local products at the event and how well presented they were.We took a little tour around the market and then we became very hungry so we went for a little wander round and we saw that there was also a good choice of takeaway food.We eventually choose to eat out at the "Street Dogs" gourmet hotdog stand. I ordered a very yummy Spanish inspired hotdog with a side of sweet potatoe fries.The food was quite affordable and the quality and taste was unbelievable.The event also had an old fashioned slide and carousel for children,which in my opinion gave it a very authentic and traditional l...

Aspire Drinks

Today's blog post is on the very impressive healthly weight loss drink  "Aspire drinks".This drinks company was first launched in the uk by two friends and the brand developed very quickly and has become a globally recogognised brand.Aspire drinks are a refreshing light carbonated drink which comes in two flavours such as cranberry and apple with Acai.Personally as I've tried both flavours,I find that the flavour isn't very sweet for my taste buds but on the other hand I had my assistant try the flavours and she loved the taste.So really it's an acquired taste,but that wouldn't put me off as this drinks weight loss qualities are unbelievable.As it's unique blend of super healthy ingredients aid calorie burning,weight loss and body fat reduction and also targets the main cause of cellulite.The good thing about this drink,is there's no set time to take this drink as you can drink it at any time of the day.Whether it be breakfast time or dinner time,b...

Donegal Rapeseed oil

Image
In my continuous journey to living a healthier lifestyle,I came across the local Donegal brand "Donegal Rapeseed Oil".Donegal Rapeseed is a 100% pure cold pressed Rapeseed oil.Which has been grown and produced locally in the a North West of Ireland,so you can't get any fresher than that.I normally cook with olive oil and apparently the Rapeseed oil has less than half the saturated fat than my usually cooking oil,which is defiantly a good reason to switch my oils as it's a heather option ,having this result they say the product is one of the healthiest culinary oils in the market.On top of that the qualities of this super oil is endless,it contains no artificial flavourings and colours. It is also has a rich source of vitamin E, a natural antioxidant which helps to protect the body’s cells from damage. They call it golden oil,as you can cook with it using the highest heat of 240 degrees, without the oil burning.With this oil you can cook almost anything up from stir fr...

Wheat Grass

As a busy single mummy of one,i find that I'm always on the go and sometimes, I just don't have the energy.I have started eating a lot healthier and through my healthy eating process.I came across the Squeeze wheat grass juice and I was amazed with it's detox qualities and high quality produce.So I trialled a week supply of the juice,taking a shot every morning for best results and I have to admit it has made a huge difference. It is recommended that you drink the wheat grass juice shot in the morning,preferably on an empty stomach.The company do say if you prefer to,you can add the wheatgrass to fruit juice or even a smoothie.Personally after trialling the product,I do prefer drinking the wheat grass juice when it has been mixed into a fruit smoothie.As I find the wheat grass juice to be an acquired taste,which not everyone will like.I have drank a few shots on their own and with fruit juice,I then added it into my morning breakfast smoothies.As the wheat grass juice is a ...

Image
I've always been quite a simple person,I barely wear makeup and I defiantly haven't worn fake tan in years,mainly because I cannot apply it propably and I always end up looking like streaky bacon.Untill recently I have been very curious about using fake tan again.As a single mum of one,I am always very busy and when I get the chance to go out,I really take pride in what I look like.Like a lot of women,i have some annoying skin problems.For example,I have quite dry skin and on top of that I bruise very easily.Especially on my legs and I have to admit it's quite embarrassing and I just want to hide them as it really dulls down my confidence.This brings me to the fake tan,the brand Vita Liberta fake tan company have kindly sent me a variety of their new NKD SKN fake tan range,so  that I could review them on my blog.  From tinted mousse to matt wash off tinted tan,there's a lot of choice to this new NKD range.
