Feta and Veg Cous Cous Easy Healthy Delicious

0


Quick easy healthy and delicious meal - feta cheese & vegetable cous cous

Although I love my soups, casseroles and roasts (we cant forget the roasts), the majority of the time I go for quick meals. I love being able to walk into my kitchen when hunger strikes and throw something together there and then rather than waiting around because that always leads to nibbling and getting agitated. But when I say a quick meal, I dont mean a packet of noodles, beans on toast, or a sandwich. Thats why Im sharing this simple dish, which is one of my go-to meals. Including both preparing and cooking it takes in total around 7 minutes - fantastic!

DIY Gift In A Bauble

DIY Christmas gift presents in a bauble, money, jewellery, necklace, ring key

The other day, whilst sorting through the boxes of Christmas decorations, I came across these baubles I picked up last year but forgot about. I couldnt remember what I planned to do with them so decided to use them as gifts. 

Theyd make a great gift for giving to a group of friends, neighbours, grandchildren, partner - anyone. Also, as they are light (depending on what you put in them) they can be easily sent through post to those who you wont be able to see.

I picked up a pack of these 8mm clear splittable baubles from a market stall, but I had a look online and you can order them (here) - in colours as well which saves getting messy. Hobby craft also stock 6mm ones (here). Im not sure about other countries, but they should be easily found.

I wanted to spray paint mine to make them a little more decorative. Go crazy and decorate it with stickers, glitter, ribbon whatever takes your fancy. These are some fantastic ideas you could also try glass paint  and snowy crystal. The person who then receives the gift can the hang it on their try - I think thats why it makes a great gift for grandparents and parents, a lovely keepsake. 

Dont forget to save some ribbon to hang them with!
