Please can you give the chocolate porridge recipe 😊
I pop 3 tablespoons of readybrek per person into the porridge to make it extra creamy, I always use plenty of full fat milk and leave it on low on the stove for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Before serving I’ll pop in a tablespoon of chocolate spread per person and give that a good mix in ❤️🥰 xxx
Love this video Natalie, enjoy your weekend my lovely ❤

So much good food! As always, you inspire me in my cooking and creativity in the kitchen.

So thanks for the recommendation! 😊And I may have also ordered a couple Christmas books that you recommended in a video last November...I'm going to try and hold out until November/December to read them. Hope you have a lovely week! ♥
Awww all of this made me so happy! Thank you ☺️ I hope you enjoy all the books ❤️🧡 xx

It was so fun going shopping with you! Seeing that Play-Doh brings back fond memories from my childhood. 😊 I vividly remember the scent when you opened the canister. So nostalgic! ♥
Sadly this isn’t proper play dough so it doesn’t have that magical smell! xxx
