July Favorites

Hey guys,

Today's blog post is going to be a new blog post which will be the first in a series this series as you can probably tell from the title is a monthly favourites series. It will include my favourite foods recipes bloggers and other general favourites so let's get started...

My first favourite is a food favourite and this is salad. I absolutely been loving having a salad for lunch or if I've had a big meal during the day then I'll have a salad for dinner. I think they're so nice in the summer and I generally have iceberg lettuce, avocado, tomato, pepper and sugar snap peas. I make my own salad dressing using about a teaspoon of mustard and a half teaspoon of cider vinegar pinch of sea salt pinch of pepper and about three or 4 teaspoon of olive oil. I do generally change up what I have in my salad so sometimes it I might have a bit of chicken or some olives but you can basically change up what ever you want in a salad and it can be different every day! Salads are also super healthy and they're good meal to have if you're on a detox week. 

Next is a drink favourite and this is cucumber infused water. Now infused water has been a big thing so far this year and I've only just started to get into it. I love putting cucumber in my water throughout the day as it just gives it that extra flavour, makes it really yummy and also just a lot healthier and you can get lots of extra vitamins from it. Another favourite of mine is strawberry and lemon infused water. I just chop up a couple strawberries and put them in a glass of water with ice and squeeze in a little bit of lemon juice for extra flavour. I have done a blog post on some fruit infused water so I will leave a link to that at the very bottom of this post.

Recently I have been absolutely loving the weather, we have had a bit of a heat wave here in the UK and is just been so nice to get a little bit of summer sunshine. Just to be able to go out in the sun in the morning and eat my breakfast in the garden. It's just been really nice to finally catch a little bit of sun and get some use out of my new sunglasses which are from accessorise and they are kind of like the ray ban aviator style so I've been loving them as well as this gorgeous weather. It's also nice because I can play out in the garden with my younger siblings.

I have been lucky enough to go sailing a couple weeks ago which has been so much fun. It was basically a massive outdoorweek and we went sailing every day, we went surfing one day in the week and it's so much fun to be outside and although was in particular sunny the whole week apart from like the last two days is it's nice to get a little bit of fresh air and have fun! 

Now onto TV favourites. I have absolutely been loving this season of  Pretty Little Liars. I definitely recommend it as a series to go and watch if you're kind of into almost like thriller kind of style-ish TV series. Another TV favorite is Gossip Girl. I love this series, though it isn't to everyones tastes.

I have recently been more interested in other bloggers and YouTubers. My current favorite blog is My Baking Addiction, it is an easy access blog that has a variety of recipes and is definitely worth checking out. And my favorite Youtuber is Elise. She runs the channel MyCupcakeAddiction. Her recipes are amazing and there are a varitey of different recipes that are for a range of abilities.
