March Degustabox

 I have been sent a monthly food subscription box each month for the last few months to review from Degustabox. On Wednesday I received the March box, and I have to say that this month's box was probably my favourite one so far. So here is a look at what was inside. Once again the box was well packaged and was full of goodies which arrived in perfect condition.

  • One Packet of Jordan's Granola RRP £3.69. This is a lighter version of normal granola with 40 % less fat in, so perfect for me as I need to diet. It is so yummy and does not taste like a lighter version either. It is so Moorish and is packed full of strawberry's and blueberries which are full of flavour. This is my new favourite cereal as it is so good.

A Taste Of Newcastle - Mozzarella And Parma Ham Salad

Since baby number three is now seven months old I have decided it is now time to diet, as I have a lot of baby weight to lose and can no longer keep using the excuse "I have just had a baby". Whenever I think of diets I always think of boring tasteless salads that taste nothing at all like the yummy ones I have when I eat out. So when Joe Blogs contacted me to see if I would like to take part in recreating a salad recipe from Newcastle's Copthorne hotel's head chef Andrew Scott, I thought it would be the perfect to time to see if I could make a healthy salad taste tasty.

February Degustabox

For the last few months, I have been sent a monthly food subscription box from Degustabox. Which is basically a box filled with lots of surprise food and drink items delivered straight to my door each month. On Wednesday I received my February box.

 I love subscription boxes as you never know what you are going to get until you actually open your box. It is a great way to try out and discover new products that you may never have heard of or tried before. And there is no long sign up commitment either as you can cancel your subscription at any time as long as it is before the 10th of the month as you will be charged after this date as delivery is not long after that date.

Book Review : The Book Of You

I do love a good book and have always been a bit of a bookworm, but I admit I am more of a chick lit, romantic comedy kind of girl who adores Marian Keyes and Sophie Kinsella novels over psychological thrillers. So when I was sent The Book Of You, a debut novel by author Claire Kendal which is a psychological thriller I really did not think it was a book I would enjoy. But oh how wrong I was.

January Degustabox

For a couple of months now I have received monthly food subscription boxes to review from Degustabox and you can read my last review here. I love receiving these boxes each month as I have no idea what is inside them until I open them and see what treats are inside the box. Each month I have received these boxes I have found different products and brands to try out which has been great.

If you are unsure of the concept of Degustabox it is basically a monthly food subscription box service. You sign up on the Degustabox website www.degustabox.co.uk and you pay the monthly subscription fee which is £12.99 per month which includes postage and packaging. Then once a month you will receive a box delivered to your door full of between 9-14 surprise food and drink items. Each month the food and drink items will be completely different and it is a great way to try out and discover new products that you may never have tried or heard of before.The great thing about Degustabox is that there is no long sign up commitment you can cancel your subscription at any time as long as you cancel before the 10th of the month you won't be charged. It really is as simple as that.
