Cooking has always been one of my favourite activities. There’s something about finally reaching the end of a hectic day and just getting lost in the kitchen. In my house we have music on, ingredients everywhere and kids joining in. I find it so therapeutic; getting to finally sit down and have some decent food after is also a huge bonus. Since going back to work a couple of months ago I have found myself cooking the same dishes over and over or even diving into the freezer stash more than I would like.

We headed over to Sopley Farm for our annual berry pick and this year we were happy to see we had made it just in time to find a ton of deliciously juicy strawberries ready to pick.
