Saturday night dinner entertaining
My supper party last night was a gaspacho starter with added chopped cucumber and croutons to add texture to the cold soup. Then this home-cooked paella. The rice was cooked in shellfish stock (lobster, mussels, chicken, garlic and onions in the vegetable water stock), and chicken thighs roasted first with crispy skin, chorizo, prawns, mussels, […]
My home-cooked meat-free veggie Bank Holiday weekend cooked breakfast
Eggs from the local farm shop chickens, seeded wholemeal bread from the Island Bakery with rather a generous spread of organic butter, wilted spinach, beef tomato slices, avocado and mushrooms. I always eat breakfast or brunch straight after working out, or doing any fitness or exercise. Healthy mix of carbs and protein and good fats. […]
A quick healthy Summer lunch inspo
Organic salmon fillet shallow-fried in organic butter so that the skin goes crispy (start flesh side down) will only take 5 minutes to cook. On a bed of leaves with avocado and cucumber. Eating at least 3 portions of oily fish gives you Omega3 fatty acids essential for a healthy brain, heart and eyes. . […]
2 more of my age 50plus ladies Styled by me for the @lookfabforever TV commercial
“Act the age you feel” is the look on the left and “No olds barred” on the right. When you reach age 50 and beyond don’t become invisible by dressing to fade into the background. Be bold with colour and design but always dress to flatter your bodyshape. . . . .
King prawn, crab and fish Laksa curry risotto @smokinglobster1 Main course after a seared scallop starter

A healthy breakfast worth waiting for
After a 12 hour overnight fast for a healthy gut. After a 16/18 hour overnight fast to lose weight. After exercise. Tomatoes, wilted spinach, mushrooms, poached eggs on sourdough toast with avocado and chillies and an espresso coffee. A yummy breakfast of protein, low carb and good fats. . . . .. .
Good morning
My inspirational quote for today. Start your day with thankfulness. It will attract more good things to you.
What to wear when it’s Winter yesterday and Summer today? Pasty white legs? Winter body? Summer clothes not yet fully unpacked? Is it cold? Is it hot? Is it sunny or pouring with rain? Could the answer be an ankle length dress, biker jacket and trainers?

Thai king prawn Laksa curry lunch in the sun today at Phat Phuk noodle bar London
Low carb and protein Thai lunch on London’s Kings road Chelsea. My favourite little cafe with Thai street food. Yummy healthy and inexpensive. I always ask the rice noodles to be replaced with vegetables so they add extra broccoli and leaves. The base ingredient of a Laksa is coconut milk which has loads of health […]
