Kobe Japanese| Steak House & Sushi Bar

Lobster cocktail

If you’re a foodie like me, and ever find yourself roaming International Drive in Orlando, Florida, then I have a recommendation for a restaurant that should be at the top of your list of places to dine! Kobe Japanese Steakhouse is far from your standard Japanese restaurant you may visit every few weeks. It is somewhere you just have to visit, and should be somewhere on your bucket list. It’s a restaurant that can either be reserved for anniversaries or birthdays, or one that you can dine at for a casual mid-week meal, or a relaxed weekend out. Bringing together a mix of fruity, ice cold cocktails, and fresh ingredients for classic Japanese food with a twist, is the selling point of Kobe. And the visitor experience they deliver, is one that will certainly make your holiday. That, together with the ambiance of a hip and chilled restaurant, there’s nothing better than visiting Kobe after a long hot day in the Orlando sun, sipping on a cold drink. If you love Japanese food, or are looking to try something new and don’t want to be disappointed, you won’t need to look any further than Kobe.

Magnitone

Being in the sun for two weeks, and exposing your skin to 37 degree weather – no, I’m not just saying that to make you jealous, takes a toll on your skin. And, although you have achieved a perfect glow to your skin, it isn’t long until the effects of being exposed to the sun start to show. Everyone knows that your skin needs a bit of TLC on the regular, and it can be a 10 minute daily thing, or it can be an all out pampering session. You can’t have missed the one product that your skin has had on it’s wishlist for such a long time now. It’s been recommended by many bloggers and even celebrities, it’s none other than the Magnitone Lucid*. The Magnitone Lucid is a daily facial cleansing & exfoliation brush system, which uses electromagnetic technology to pulse through the skin leaving it feeling nothing but perfectly smooth and cleansed.

Slim Fast| 3-2-1 # Slimfastchallenge

Slim Fast 3-2-1

If you follow me on Twitter then you will know that I had an over-indulgent 11 day trip to sunny Florida. The U.S. is somewhere I have wanted to go to for as long as I know. And of course, a visit to Disney World was much needed. I’m a big kid at heart. As you can imagine, the food portions in Florida are humongous, and with so many different items on the menu, it’s only natural to want to try each one. So coming back to London, the first thing that was on my mind was getting back to being body confident and back in shape ready for my birthday weekend. And this, is where Slim Fast have kindly offered to step in, to give me a helping hand. Slim Fast* have challenged me to the #Slimfastchallenge using the 3-2-1 plan for two weeks, and anyone who knows me will know I love a good ol’ challenge.

Body Image| Be Summer Ready Your Way

Body confidence

My fitness journey has certainly been one that has been up and down over the past few years. I’ve gone from being a fitness fanatic, to dreading the thought of going to the gym. I’ve yo-yoed back and forth between different gym and health club memberships, trying to find one that not just helps me meet my goals, but also makes me feel comfortable. Because ultimately, isn’t that why anyone goes to the gym, works out and maintains a healthy diet? To be comfortable in their own skin. Yes everyone can turn around and say that they work out for themselves. To lead a healthier lifestyle, and to improve their health, to not feel so out of breath when they are running for the train in the morning. But again, ultimately, it comes down to one thing. How comfortable are you, really, in your own skin? This post is all about Body Image.

Cookbook | Terry’s Chocolate Orange Cookies

Terry's Chocolate Orange

Since I tried these cookies, years ago, from my local supermarket I actually fell in love with it. And they tasted much better warmed up in the microwave for 30 seconds or so. I myself, love Terry’s Chocolate Orange. Always have. There’s something special about the orange flavour within the milk chocolate. Here’s a great recipe to try out, if you’re like me, and love Terry’s Chocolate Orange. It’s decadent, and to be eaten on cheat day – so no need to feel so guilty about it.
