Need an excuse to party in January? Chinese New Year is the biggest Chinese celebration there is, lasting for 15 days starting on 31st January 2014. To celebrate, red envelopes containing monetary gifts are traditionally given to friends and family at the start of the New Year in China, where the red colour is said to bring luck and ward off evil spirits. This Chinese New Year, London's leading dim sum and cocktail restaurant, Ping Pong, will give away thousands of lucky red envelopes, while also offering a limited edition seasonal menu - including Shanghainese noodles, Tapioca Pearls cocktail and Chaozhou Vegetable dumplings.
This month I am looking forward to being 'Fabulous for February' with the help of the ilumi Boost Your Energy Diet and the Advanced Nutrition Programme. Along with added help from Vietnam Black Rice and Nutribullet I am looking to change my approach to my diet and move on to fresh produce and home-made meals, free from unnecessary added ingredients. I am sharing my experience with you now I am half-way through the month and getting to Day 15 on my #FabForFeb regime has been easier than expected.
With the release of a new Paddington feature movie, a growing interest in making preserves at home and a steep rise in exports of British marmalade abroad 2014 is set to be a golden year for marmalade. Jane Hasell-McCosh, organiser of the 9th World’s Original Marmalade Awards & Festival being held at Dalemain in Cumbria on 1st & 2nd March 2014, is predicting jars will be flying off the shelves as Brits rediscover their love for the citrus preserve and an increased number of international retailers stock the quintessentially British breakfast staple.
