Week (or two) in photos!

Sorry I've been lacking in posts a little this week, I've been so busy! Started my new job on monday so I've been training everyday this week. Today is the 6th day in a row I've worked, and I still have 2 more to go (as I've still got my weekend job too!). So on saturday that will be 8 days in a row.. I know some people are used to working that much but I'm not used to it at all! But i have a day off on sunday thankfully! Then starting it all over again on monday.. god knows when my next day off will be after that! Okay i'm blabbing on a bit now.. Basically my point is.. I haven't got much time to take photos because it's dark by the time i get home :( but i will try and find more time when I get into more of a routine! For the time being i thought i'd share some instagram photos to show what I've been up to lately (apart from all the boring work stuff!). sorry it's mostly pictures of food and my boyfriend as I haven't had time to do much else recently! I'll try and get some reviews and stuff done soon when i get chance; i have a couple of ideas in mind for posts including an empties post which I haven't done before!

Yogberries frozen yoghurt!

So after seeing someone posting about Yogberries on instagram earlier today, me and my flatmate decided to go try it out as there's one in Fallowfield which isnt too far from us. After checking out the website before heading there we decided to try the medium special offer (a medium frozen yoghurt with 3 toppings for £3.95).. we didn't realise how big the portions would be (not sure if you can tell from this photo but they were pretty big!), so i definitely think it's worth the money. They were generous with the toppings too which is good, and the staff were really friendly :)

There are quite a lot of toppings to choose from, as well as 3 different yoghurt flavours (natural, chocolate and mango). I went for natural frozen yoghurt with peanut butter cups, chocolate coffee beans and strawberries (looking back though i don't think the strawberries went with it very well). My flatmate got the mango yoghurt and after trying hers i much preferred it to the 'natural' flavour so if I go again I'll definitely be getting the mango one. I think the concept of this is really good as the yoghurt itself is really healthy (0% fat!), and if you choose all fruit options its an all round healthy snack. (we were a bit naughty with our choices though oops!) The peanut butter cups were definitely the best one! Anyway i would definitely recommend this place so if you live near either Fallowfield, Wilmslow or Hale then check it out! :)

Updates.





Just a couple of updates from the last few days really! These are just a couple of instagram photos to show what I've been upto the last few days (so apologies for the crappy quality)!

The other night me and lucy made honey pecan muffins from scratch they were so good! She made them once before last year and Ive been bugging her to make them again ever since and we finally made them the other night, although she did most of the hard work! ;) i just made the honey sauce!

The next picture is my little car Barney when i took him in for repair the other day! You may be able to tell why hes called barney as I think he resembles Barney the dinosaur a little bit or maybe its just me? I think hes cute.. Anyways he needed the tyres balancing as they've been out of place for awhile ever since my dad changed a tyre, literally months ago! So i havent been able to go above 60 which is a nightmare on the motorway! So i'm glad its sorted now i can get back to zooming about!!;)

The next photo is me and luce yesterday when we went to see The woman in Black at the cinema. I think i was expecting it to be much scarier as everyone had hyped it up.. Dont get me wrong i was hiding behind my cardigan the whole time but it wasn't too bad i suppose. I reckon theres much scarier films, put it that way! Has anyone else seen it? what did you think?

Aaaaaand the last one is just something me and my boyfriend made the other night, literally the nicest meal ever i'm not even exaggerating! We made crispy chicken from scratch and used a teriyaki coating which was SO good! Then we had it with vermicelli noodles which we added sweet chilli sauce to and some vegetables. It was amazing we will definitely be making it again soon, or at least something similar!

Anyway thats what has been going on with me for the last couple of days! As well as this ive managed to finish an essay due in tomorrow, literally only remembered i had it on monday so I'm quite pleased i've managed to get it done already! Whether i will do well on it is another story..

This week in food.

Went for a meal last week for my boyfriend's graduation, we went with all his family to a pub / restaurant called the midway. The food was so good! I had a prawn cocktail starter, a chicken, bacon and brie burger with homemade wedges for my main, and a sticky toffee pudding with ice cream for my dessert. It was all so yummy i can't wait to go again!

Went to nandos with my friend amy after work on sunday for a little catch up. I've not seen her on my own for a while so that was nice! Also i wanted to go as it was the last day before my health kick so I needed my last coke fix! I miss fizzy drinks already!! :( 

So today me and my flatmate Lucy started our healthy eating plan, we've got set meals for each day all planned out and we went and did a big food shop today after uni :) managed to get everything on the list and it's mostly fruit and veg! No fizzy drinks / chocolate / general bad stuff allowed! We're doing well (one day in..) haha! I will keep you updated on whether that actually continues.
