My Current Favorite Products
This week I thought I’d do something a little different on the blog, by sharing some of the products I’ve been loving recently.

There’s nothing quite so comforting as a warm, delicious bowl of porridge on chilly winters mornings, and boy! have we had a few of those here in Nelson, NZ. Opening the curtains to see the heavy snow capped mountains in the distance is my que to get the stove on and get cracking with a bowl of nourishing porridge.
