Today for a post gym brunch I made pancakes! To be precise #veganglutenfree pancakes 👌🏻 These ones are actually a throwback to some epic #matcha mini pancake skewers. My pancakes today were part of my recipe testing process for a retreat I’m catering on at the end of this month! They tasted great but weren’t so photo worthy. Another trial to go before I’ve nailed it! 😉

I had some wobbly emotions earlier this week, I had to dig deep to sit with them. But today I feel a lot of love for myself. Grateful to be me. ⠀
⠀
The sunshine and a morning walk in nature definitely helped to boost that feeling!⠀
⠀
A few moments ago, I asked myself what would I Iike for dinner today and the answer was an epic lentil and mushroom chilli with chunky potato wedges... and dessert, of course, dessert! (i'll share it with my mum)⠀
⠀
Then I asked myself, what do I fancy doing for myself this evening, and the answer somewhat surprised me; I want to finish the vision board that I started some weeks ago but never completed, it's as if 'owning my story' was put on hold waiting for me to be ready to acknowledge and embrace all of who I am and step into bringing that magic of Jo to life.⠀
⠀
So, today I am loving myself through the process. @brenebrown always says it best ❤️

Happy day of love!!! Whether you are single (me!) or not, the best love will always be the love we have for ourselves!
My day started with a wonderful walk in the woods, The mist rising, crispy leaves, squirrels and birdsong and the glorious winter sun in the sky!
Thanks to @pauldchambers of @poets_in for being a wonderful walking and creative brainstorming companion! 👌🏻

Amazing lunch at @thewaltonvillage ...vegan jackfruit pizza, tasty salad and cup of mint tea, all for a super lunch meal deal. They have a vegan menu too (swipe). Highly recommend 👌🏻

Spiced squash and coconut curry. Always love finding a pub restaurant that offers a vegan menu 💛

Currently listening to The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F**K by @markmansonnet on audiobook.
Walking to the gym yesterday morning these words rang out to me.
There are a lot of 'onion' metaphors out there but this one made me smile!

Just over a week away from the ‘day of love’ itself! So I thought I’d share one of my favourite simple Valentines themed recipes.
Bliss balls infused with rosewater and raw cacao (tastes like Turkish delight!) and then rolled in desiccated coconut dusted in beetroot powder. So simple and delicious. Can be made in advance and frozen too.

If you want to go one step further once you’ve made your bliss ball mix, take chunks of the dough and using your fingers wrap around a frozen cherry- when it defrost your have a sweet juicy centre!

You can make any bliss ball mix but I used approximately: 2 cups dates, 1/2 cup ground nuts, 1/3 cup raw cacao, 1tbs rose water.

Have a peek at the latest article I wrote... #Repost @balancegarden ・・・
- We Take Our Lives for Granted -

Today on the blog, Jo Hodson (@johodson) reflects on the way we take our lives for granted.

Excerpt: "How can we maintain that magic, without needing something like a health scare, or changing circumstance, or a house move... those sort of things trigger our appreciation for the small moments in life but what if we could choose to create these moments every single day?" Link to the full piece in our bio

Enjoy!
