Healthy snacks♥

Hey everybody!

Lately I have trying to be eating a lot healthier and choosing healthy snacks over something like chocolate*why does it taste so good?!*.

I thought I would share with you all some healthy snacks I have been eating lately.

 

A lot of people when they get home from school go straight to their cupboards or fridge and snack on something un-healthy, but why not try a small variation of fruit?. It's a lot  healthier and a lot better for you! You can add whipped creamed or Greek yoghurt, anything that tickles your taste buds to make your snack more interesting!

 

I have recently subscribed to a weekly subscription called Graze Box which I'm sure a lot of you are aware of. I chose the light box which means its 4 different snacks with the lowest amount of calories. These taste amazing! You sometimes even get little tea bags  to enjoy with your snacks! Get your first box today http://www.graze.com/uk/. This week I got popcorn which I'm really curious about and I hope it tastes nice!

 

If you find it hard to eat healthy then have a treat night where you can award yourself with some chocolate or your favourite sweet. This can really help because you make yourself work harder so you can eat that piece of chocolate and feel good about it!

 

What's your favourite healthy snack?

Lots of love, Kiera♥

I will be doing a healthy dinner post soon too!

 

 

 

 



Pamper Evening♥

Hey everybody!

Whenever I have one of those crappy days where everything just seems 'meh' I like to have an evening of therapy.

And my therapy is my current favourite book, a film & using products that'll make me feel all clean and pampered and refreshed!

The first thing I do is run a bath - I don't know what it is about lying in a tub of my own dirt but it makes me so relaxed and really boosts my mood! 99% of the time I'll use a LUSH bath bomb/bubble bar and for this particular bath I used 'Creamy candy bath'  It smells amazing. Wait that's not it- it smells divine.

Yes, divine.

 

Once my fingers and toes look like prunes I'll accept it's time to get back to reality and put some cosy pj's on. If I have one lying around then I will put on a face mask- recently I have been loving 'Self Heating' face masks in particular.

I tend to read my current favourite book whilst my facemask is working its magic and cleanses my pores.

 

In my opinion there is no better way to end a pamper evening than with a film or two, or three*why not*. I am not fussy with the types of films I like to watch.. I enjoy films with some action, a rom com, a girly chick flick and of course DISNEY!! 

My all time favourite Disney film is The Little Mermaid, I know it word for word and I watch it all the time, I'm obsessed!*no literally, I cant get enough of it*.  However today I decided to watch something different..

*Taken *The Perks Of Being A Wallflower *Enchanted

 

After a pamper evening my mood completely changes - I feel a lot more refreshed and a lot happier too. And sleepy- but I always am!

 

What sort of films do you like to watch when your having a pamper evening?

Making Carrot Cake with me!

Hey everybody! Todays post is going to be something for all you carrot cake lovers like me!  I'm going to show you guys how to make carrot cake!♥

-This post could completely fail or go okay*fingers crossed*-

 

Ingredients;                                                                 Equipment;

• Betty Crocker carrot cake mix                             1) 2 round bake tins
• 3 medium eggs                                                    2) Large mixing bowl
• 6 tbsp of oil                                                          3) cake stand ect   
• 200ml of water
• betty crockers buttercream icing

           

   

               yeild; serves 12.`prep time; 10 minutes `cooking time;21-28minutes

 

 

Mix together all your ingredients(minus the icing!) until its thick and creamy...I used a hand whisk and it took 2-3minutes, I'm sure if you use an electric whisk it will be a lot faster.

I had a friend help me so whilst she was whisking I lined the cake tins with grease proof paper.

 

 

Your cake mix should look like this once you're done whisking. Pour you mix into the two cake tins you lined earlier. Make sure you use an even amount! You can of course lick the bowl and spoon after doing this..I hold my hands up to doing that!

 

Place these into the over for 21-28 minutes, when you take them out pierce them lightly with a knife and if any cake mix comes out on the knife place them back in the over for a little longer.

 

Once taking them out of the oven leave them to cool for around an hour so they're cool inside and out!

Once they are cool, the fun part begins..

 

.....ICING!

 

Make sure you ice the top of the two separate cakes first and then place one on top of the other.

Take heaps and heaps of buttercream icing and ice all around you cake, hopefully yours will look a lot better than mine does.

 

 Remember the instructions are also on the back of the Betty Crocker Cake Mix if mine didn't help!

 

CARROT CAKE!♥

 

 

I don't even know how I feel about this post to be honest. However I hoped you guys enjoyed it, this was completely experimental.

 

Lots of love, Kiera♥
