Whilst on holiday in Tavistock recently, we were introduced to Bacchus and Hops, a company on a mission to find premium alcohol-free drinks that didn’t compromise on quality or experience.

This week it is National Baking Week, which just happens to be running concurrently with UK Chocolate Week 2025. From Monday 13th to Sunday 19th October the UK is celebrating all things sweet.

It is safe to say that a chocolate obsession can become a real problem. But this month we are definitely hooked on these bars of Peruvian Dark Chocolate with Raspberry.

Our latest little addiction comes in the form of these gluten-free cracked black pepper crackers from Nairn's. Plant-based and high fibre, these wholegrain oat crackers pack a punch of pepper worthy of any topping.

We're unsure how we missed this for so long, but Oddlygood® is finally on our radar, and we intend to keep them there. We're addicted to their creamy yogurt-style treat which is non-dairy and gluten-free.

The only resolution we have made for 2025 regarding food is that we will try to cook fresh most nights, or at least batch-cook fresh food for easy eating, using our store cupboard ingredients.
