Ad. How pretty does the new @oleandsteenuk shop in Kingston look!! 😍. This Easter, Ole & Steen will be launching ‘Hide & Cheep’, the perfect holiday activity taking place over the holidays (3-10th April), where each day, you seek out a cute fluffy chick hidden close to their bakeries. Once you find one, head into the bakery for a delicious ‘Chicken Little’ Marshmallow Whip and a regular hot drink. I will be back over the Easter holidays with Albie to hunt down the chicks. Don’t worry we won’t take them as we already have ours 😉 • • • #ad #oleandsteen #hideandcheep #kingston #kingstontowncentre #wheretoeatinkingston
Seeded sourdough recipe Feed your starter when you wake up. On a feeding day I use 40g flour/40g water. After about 2-4hours it should rise and almost double. Mix 300ml of tepid water and 100ml of your starter in your mixing bowl (I use my kitchen aid bowl). Mix them together. Add 250g of wholemeal flour and 250g of white strong bread flour together and use the kitchen aid to mix this together for about 3 minutes until completely combined and there are no flour lumps. Leave it for an hour with a damp tea towel over the top. Add 20-25ml of water and mix together for about 2 minutes. Then add and mix in 10g of ground salt (I use a pessel and mortar to grind rock salt). The salt will make your dough lovely a silky. Place your dough into a big mixing bowl with your damp tea towel over the top. Fold you dough whenever you remember for the next few hours. With every time that I fold it, I fold until it gets stiffer and tighter. I think that’s the gluten building up?? When you’ve done about 4 folding sessions you can do the laminating stage where you will stretch your dough out into a rectangle. I like to wet my table and my hands for this process so it doesn’t stick. For your seed mix you can choose what you seeds you fancy but to make it as close to the Gail’s seeded sourdough I use black and white sesame seeds and pumpkin seeds. I use a mix of these at between 80-100g. Pour about 75% of your seeds over this rectangle. Then fold your rectangle in on itself a bit like a letter. One side into the centre. Opposite side over the top of that and repeat. Then place this folded dough into your mixing bowl. After about half an hour you can do another folding session where you will slowly see the seeds spreading across your dough. When you have finished this folding and the seeds have come to the top of the ball of dough, wet your hands and wipe over the dough. Then pour your leftover seeds over the dough.

Ad, This spring @oleandsteenuk a have a ‘Hide & Cheep’ hunt happening over the Easter holidays (3-10th April) where each day, each of their bakeries will be hiding two cuddly chicks close by! The lucky finder will then be able to take it into their local Ole & Steen store for a yummy ‘Chicken Little’ Marshmallow Whip and a regular hot drink 💕 🐥. The chewy biscuit base is insaaaane 😋 . Albie and I had so much fun finding a chick and then eating loads of yummy goodies in the new store that’s just opened in Kingston. Let me know if you find one 🐣 #ad #oleandsteen #hideandcheep #kingston #newkingstonshop
CLOCKS ⏰ It’s 8am and I’m awake but Albie, Liam and Coco are all still fast asleep 👀 👀. I’mrather annoyed I can’t get back to sleep haha. …off to pop our bread in the oven so we can have lovely sandwiches for lunch. Yesterdays walk in the park was lovely but the sunshine was deceiving, I was freezing 🥶and Albie jumped in every single puddle. Should probably put him on wellies for the foreseeable! • • • #stream #bushyoark #familytime #chihuahualife #mumandson #freezingbutsunny
JUMP 🏰 Jumping into the weekend after a rather amazing week!! • Officially started my new company (Can’t wait to share more-maybe in a week or two) • Booked two big collaborations for two topics that I LOVE 🏡 & 🧁!!!! • Been told my eyes/brain are all ticketty boo and been signed off from the hospital 👌🏼 (Not said anything but basically an option thought there was pressure on one of my eyes last December which of course led me to thinking I had a brain tumour!! Luckily after two appointments and an insane amount of tests I’m all good 👌🏼 but I do naturally have two different sized pupils!) • • • #jumpingintotheweekend #bouncycastle #weeksroundup #bignews #lotsofgoodnews #timeforadrink

NEW BUSINESS 👩💼 Working hard behind the scenes on a new business venture. Well, kind of new but more of a development and concisement (that’s a word now, because I say so 😉) of what I already do 💻. A big launch offer coming soon so any small businesses keep an eye out 👀 💕 …also I’ve found some amazing biscuits 🍪 😆 …also, working on proving my loaf of bread beside me and taking breaks to fold it 😂 • • • #newbusiness #workingonsomething #behindthescenes #workingmom #workingmum #workinghard #workingforthefuture #keepingbusy #thisgirlmeansbusiness
