🎄🍷 Is Christmas cheer turning into Christmas beer? 🍻✨ It’s the season of indulgence, but how much is too much? Here are 3 simple hacks to enjoy festive drinks without regrets tomorrow. 🍸❄️ 1. Alternate Drinks with Water: For every alcoholic drink, have a glass of water. It keeps you hydrated, slows your drinking pace, and helps you avoid that dreaded hangover. 2. Set a Drink Limit Beforehand: Decide on a reasonable number of drinks before the festivities begin and stick to it. This keeps you in control and lets you enjoy the party without overdoing it. 3. Eat Before You Drink: Start with a hearty meal or some protein-rich snacks. This slows alcohol absorption and keeps your energy up throughout the celebrations. There is still time to book in with me to moderate your alcohol intake over the festive period. Hypnosis is an effective way to take back control. Nigel came to see my to stop drinking, 7 years ago and he celebrates every year without alcohol. DM me to find out more. Cheers to a merry, balanced Christmas! 🎄✨

Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍁 My annual Thanksgiving "Etiquette" acceptable table talk today. 01. Talk about a huge breast! 02. Tying the legs together keeps the inside moist. 03. It's Cool Whip time! 04. If I don't undo my pants, I'll burst! 05. That's one terrific spread! 06. I'm in the mood for a little dark meat. 07. Are you ready for seconds yet? 08. It's a little dry, do you still want to eat it? 09. Just wait your turn, you'll get some! 10. Don't play with your meat. 11. Just spread the legs open and stuff it in. 12. Do you think you'll be able to handle all these people at once? 13. I didn't expect everyone to come at once! 14. You still have a little bit on your chin. 15. How long will it take after you stick it in? 16. You'll know it's ready when it pops up. 17. Wow, I didn't think I could handle all of that! 18. That's the biggest one I've ever seen!

🌿🤍✨ Happy Thanksgiving!!✨ 🤍🌿 Before starting your marathon cooking, getting dressed for parties, settling in for football games, mentally preparing for whatever family arguments or questions are coming later, or anticipating the food (whatever emotions come with that, positive or negative), start with this short exercise in GRATITUDE: ✨ 5-Minute Gratitude Exercise ✨ - Take out a piece of paper or open your phone’s Notes app - Set a timer for 5 minutes - Start writing all the things you can think of that you’re grateful for. Yeah, all of them! - Like, fresh air? Electricity? People you love? Pets? Your sight, hearing, arms to hug people, music, your favorite scent? Flowers? Hot water coming out of your sink and shower? Indoor toilets and toilet paper? Food in the grocery stores and in your pantry? (Remember 2020??) How about gas in gas stations? Just keep going. - When your timer goes off, decide if you want to go a little longer, or if you’re done for now 💕 - ENJOY your day, but keep that spirit of gratitude! Notice those little things as you keep going on with the rest of your day!

It's that time of the year again. Christmas celebrations, a time for family, friends, colleagues, food and the occasional ‘Did they really just say that?’ moment. Picture this… you are at the dinner table, surrounded by roast potatoes and crackers and someone makes a comment that makes your inner voice go: ‘No, nope, no way, I surely didn't hear that right’. What do you do? Do you: 🫵 Call it out there and then? 🗣️ Wait and have a quiet word later? 🍨 Let it go and focus on dessert?  😆 Try and steer the conversation with a bit of humour? I am aware there is no perfect answer, and it depends on the moment, the person and your energy levels (or wine levels). But it is worth remembering that even a gentle nudge can make people think again. What is your approach? Let’s swap strategies and make sure the only thing getting roasted this Christmas is the food. 😉

🦃 Thanksgiving Dinner Strategy: This year, my Thanksgiving game plan is simple: 1) Small talk with relatives, 2) Hug the turkey like it’s a lifeline, and 3) Claim a food coma spot on the couch ASAP. #ThanksgivingPlaybook #TurkeyTime

When you need something stronger than a coffee to get through the week. McWhiskey, anyone? Let’s get together and talk over a drink .Comment below ⬇️. ☕🥃 #WednesdayWoes #HumpDayHumor"

Read the room and the writing on the wall. Super Bowl over shadows Valentine’s Day. So much so that gift giving becomes an afterthought in the minds of most. The second biggest holiday has becomes a marketing nightmare being so close to Super Bowl—when you have a physical product. And your product depends on shipping. Early marketing gets lost in post Christmas fatigue. Real time marketing can’t compete with sports. Vendor events can be risky as much as niche items. Even worse, there’s no time for shipping. Thanks Super Bowl. So what do we do? Lucky for Best Shower Soapery, we can use the moment to love on our members. We will eow them with special perks like receiving Cocoa Secrets Deep Dark Chocolate soap bars in their February boxes. Then we will use that excitement to boost interest in our Shower Lovers Club. We’re launching “Shower Lovers Know…” campaign to run between the big game and Valentine’s Day. In the end, just another great way to avoid pitfalls and enjoy more stress free days of having a physical product. Read the room and the writing on the wall. Enjoy the game.

🎉 Halloween Birthday Bash for VK! 🎉 We threw an unforgettable Halloween party at home to celebrate our amazing friend VK’s birthday! Cooked up a storm of spooky food: creepy treats, ghostly goodies, and pumpkin delights 🎃👻. We laughed, sang, danced, and enjoyed endless fun together. It’s moments like these that remind us how precious time with friends truly is❣️ One of the best parts of having a digital business is the flexibility it gives me to dive into my love for cooking and hosting. I get to spend time creating special meals and hosting celebrations with family and friends, while still managing my work seamlessly. Building a digital business means not missing out on the joys of life—and always being able to do what I love, when I want! 🥂✨ #HalloweenParty #BirthdayBash #SpookyFood #FriendsAndFun #DigitalBusiness #WorkLifeBalance #CookingPassion #CelebrateLife
