THE ESSENCE VAULT FRAGRANCES: You Wouldn’t Tell The Difference

January 3, 2022 No Comments

I am sure you have already seen all the ads around, be it on Facebook, Instagram you name it. What I’m I talking about? The essence vault fragrances, if you like smelling good or just want to have a great scent overall and think you need to have the original designer perfume, then I’m here to tell you that it’s time to save up your coin. I know that buying expensive designer perfume sounds good and all but what if you could have the same fragrance at a fraction of the price and not be able to tell the difference? Then if this sounds interesting to you, I am urging you to check out the essence vault fragrances.

I first saw the ad on Instagram and clicked on it accidentally while scrolling, I wanted to get a present for my husband’s birthday and decided to try different stores and products out there. So I decided to bite the bullet and get him some to test out if they were worth the hype. Well, I ended up buying three bottles which will probably last him forever and the best part is a little goes a long way and lasts all day too. After seeing how great they were, I got myself some too and l am definitely happy with my purchase.

A DELICIOUS CHEWY BROWNIE RECIPE

October 1, 2021 No Comments

Hi once again,

Happy new month everyone. I hope you’re all doing great. I needed something to have for dessert this week and I decided on some brownies. I’m sure no one hates them unless there’s an allergy involved or you just despise chocolate in general. Today I have a delicious chewy brownie recipe for you and I must say, chewy is an understatement because these turn out so good and makes you not stop at one. So if you know you might stop your diet, then I suggest you don’t make them at all. I wouldn’t want to be the one “sabotaging” your diet but honestly, I want to and insist that you try them first. For this delectable brownie recipe, you will need very simple ingredients and they are as follows.

EASY BAKED GARLIC PARMESAN CHICKEN WINGS

September 30, 2021 No Comments

Hello Everyone,

If you’ve been following my blog for a while now and have seen my recipes, then you already know that I tend to have more chicken recipes than other meats. That’s just because I love chicken and my most favourite will definitely have to be chicken wings. There is just something about eating chicken wings that make me super happy, I can have them plainly roasted, dry-rubbed, sticky, spicy and my recent obsession which are my garlic parmesan chicken wings. They are easy and baked to perfection and finally tossed in some parmesan cheese.

My son also loves chicken wings and as much as he used to make me have to debone them for him, he has now appreciated the satisfaction of eating it on the bone and asks for chicken wings every chance he can get. This recipe is super simple and the outcome doesn’t disappoint, with some small prepping time and the oven at your service, then you will love this recipe. You will need;

BEANS AND SWEETCORN QUESADILLAS

September 29, 2021 2 Comments

Hey there,

Quesadillas are on my mind today and not just simple ones but beans and sweetcorn quesadillas, perfectly spiced, full of flavour and can be whipped up real quick. I ended up refrying my own beans but if you have a favourite brand then you can use that. I usually like my beans to have a bit more texture, not thoroughly mashed and to have a bite too. Quesadillas just have a way of making one happy when it comes to indulging, I mean a tortilla, great filling and cheese and you have yourself, one happy person. Honestly, quesadillas were not something I grew up with and hence never made it to my menu. Nowadays, I ensure that I make some every two weeks with a change-up of ingredients of course.

HEALTHY OATMEAL PANCAKES

September 27, 2021 No Comments

If you’re a breakfast person and are looking for a go-to filling breakfast, then these healthy oatmeal pancakes are the ones for you. How are you all doing by the way? I hope all is well and are still staying safe, today I am back with a breakfast recipe for you. I first made them when I told myself I was on a diet for like the millionth time and needed breakfast to keep me going for longer and handle my hunger during workouts.

The best part about these is that they are fun to make and if you have little ones who can help you, then they will love these. Not your typical shape since as much as you try to form a perfect circle, they go their own direction and as my mum said “butterfly pancakes” but the taste is worth it. Also once you make the mixture, you will think that it’s either too runny but don’t worry they turn out great. For this recipe, you will need;

EASY ROASTED TOMATO SOUP RECIPE

September 24, 2021 No Comments

There is just something about warm, comforting soups that does it for me, especially in the chilly evenings. One of my favourites and most loved soups would have to be my easy roasted tomato soup recipe. Roasting them instead of boiling them just makes a great difference and you retain most of the flavour. If you haven’t tried this version before, then no worries because I am going to share with you my recipe and I know if you’re a soup lover, then ready up the garlic bread because this one is for you. Unlike my butternut squash soup, this one tends to be a lot simpler but very delicious at the same time. Lightly spiced, and all you need is your oven and an immersion blender to do all the work for you. For this recipe, you will need;

ONE POT SAUSAGE AND PASTA RECIPE

September 23, 2021 No Comments

Busy evenings, who doesn’t love them, right? Anyway just joking. If you’re like me and tend to end up rustling up dinner while still thinking of how many million things you still have to do before the day ends, then this one-pot sausage and pasta recipe is one to have on hand. All in one pot, no need of cooking the pasta beforehand and packs a punch when it comes to great flavour. Depending on what kind of sausage you like using, you can pick your favourite but if you can find kielbasa, then I suggest you use that. The last addition of cheese brings this dish altogether and adds a creamy texture that will not disappoint. For this recipe, you will need;

Hello Everyone,

I hope you’re all doing great and all is just fine. It’s been a minute since I’ve been on here but what can I say, life happens. I have been struggling to get back to writing and as much as I tell myself to just start, something comes up and I end up entering my procrastinating stage which makes me cancel everything. Anyway, thanks to Pinterest, I overcame that today and just made myself do it. I don’t know about you but the heatwave these past week has been horrendous, I mean I hate the cold but I expected it to be slightly warmer and not scorching. Thankfully this fresh homemade strawberry & mint lemonade got us through some of it. Simply refreshing, can be made in advance and sorry to say this but it doesn’t last long, so make double. For this lemonade you will need;
