Blue skies and sunny days always make me feel lighter and more carefree. With summer now firmly in swing, you can leave behind your winter worries but you can never get lazy on your skincare regime, even with daily doses of sunshine.

Have you ever had a meal so luscious you’ve begged the cook for the recipe, only to be sorely disappointed when you’ve tried to recreate the meal at home?

My challenge has been to tweak rich and classic delicacies for extra nourishment, leaving you feeling light yet satisfied.

Wouldn’t it be amazing if you were always in great spirits? Imagine a world where things always went your way. If you never got stuck in a rut.
