Snack Obession #2 - Treat Yo Self!

Hi Amigos!
It's been a while since we last had a natter but there's nothing like talking about food to bring people together,(other than eating it) right?

Cheat day, cheat treat whatever you want to call it, when my tummy is a grumbling my mouth is mumbling about food and as the seasons change I'm finding new tasty ways to satisfy my appetite.

Teasers is the new delicious chocolate from Malteasers out in time for Easter. Gone are the days these little cheeky sods are rolling away from me! Mini honeycomed, chocolate covered pieces of heaven are light on the tummy leaving plenty of room for tea.

I really liked the cute and quirky advert for Sunbites but Sweet Chilli  is by far the best flavour. Onion and Rosemary tastes, well it doesn't taste of anything really. I found it quite mild and plain. Sweet Chilli has such a strong (not over powering) taste that's blended together perfectly which Walkers always seems to get just right across their crisps.

Today was the perfect day for going to the park, having a run about with kids and eating ice cream while it's hot because who knows when the weather is going to change, right? So I decided to kick it old school and got a Feast for £1 at my local newsagent.


Three Years ago I had no idea what rice cakes were and it was only when my boys were moving onto eating solids that I got into them. We've recently switched from the rice cakes to corn cakes and they taste just as good to be honest. These are a great because you can add to them or just have them on their own. I feel better eating a few of these than a chocolate bar. This has to be my snack of the moment this month.

So let me know what foods your loving right now, caring is sharing! Haha

Snack Obsession

I can hold my hand up high and positively say that everyone has scanned the house for food when dinner is just around the corner. While others may satisfy themselves with a packet of crisps or a chocolate bar I tend to go slightly over bored and this is how OTT I was this evening (I already scoffed some of the Oreos and Choux pastry, lol). This could be the tastiest blog I've ever written!!!


Propercorn is the yummiest snack I've had in a long time. It's easy on the pocket (around 79p) and not heavy on the calories. I love making my own popcorn at home but not having to pick out unpopped popcorn is a major plus. A big thumbs up from me and my tum tum. 

I've never tried YOYO in my life before today and I'm not too keen on Mango flavoured snacks but I thought I would give this fruit roll up a go. One packet goes towards one of your five a day pledge (I've been watching a lot of the midnight beast lately) so that's a plus. If a Mango flavoured YOYO doesn't sound up your street I've heard a Grape flavour is available.

Nothing takes my mind off looking in the cupboard repeatedly, just to be disappointed eveytime (why do we do that?) than reading. It's Tuesday aka new magazine day so I've the pick of the bunch to distract myself from the grumbles. New nail polishes ( the Maybelline colour sensational nudes collection is the shiz), trends ( I've always loved an anklet) and catching up on the latest person collaborating with Mac (Lorde btw) is a sure fire way to put those pangs aside.

As I write this dinner is waiting for me so I guess I can add blogging as another beautiful distraction. 

Thanks for stopping by folks,
