2 for 1 evening cookery classes – a perfect Mother’s Day gift

It's too early to panic about Mother's Day on the 3rd April, but we've just this minute added a new special offer to the Into the Blue website that we think makes an excellent Mother's Day present. The very special two for one evening cookery classes take place at this professional cookery school near Chelmsford in Essex. There are a whole loads of classes to choose from, including gourmet dining (if you fancy impressing someone!), express dinner for two (if time isn't on your side in the kitchen) and even a seafood extravaganza so you can learn what you should...

[caption id="attachment_2570" align="alignright" width="250"] Feel ripped off by the big name chocolate brands?

Nothing like letting your hair down with a spot of polo

You know what's it's like when you split up from someone. It can be anxious time and invariably it ends up being a time of change and usually it's something simple like a new haircut. But when Ms Price splits up from Mr Reid she jets off to the swankiest ski resort ever and goes horse-riding on the snow at a posh snow polo contest. Katie's been in Klosters, the smart ski resort more akin to welcoming the likes of George Osbourne than women famous for err....taking their clothes off.

Count those calories!

Chocolate cakes (note the plural) and chocolate Martinis is our brand choc-tastic experience and we've just tried to count up all the calories involved in chocolate cup cakes, chocolate whoopie cakes and chocolate Martinis and we got to around three million, so we decided to stop. Who cares about calories when you can have this much fun in this trio of chocolate workshop! Actually, it's not THAT bad, as the chocolate used for this workshop is courtesy of Green and Blacks, so you know it's good quality and organic too! Now our halo has been firmly restored, we can tell...
