I don't know about you but has anyone noticed how quick a pot of shop bought hummus goes off? Or how many calories a tbsp of hummus is? Well recently, I have come to realise the answers to these questions and it's not something that is working for me. Both of these together link for me as I am watching my calories therefore cannot have too much of the pot however it seems to go off before I can space out my portions. I know, such a challenge.

The Wild Olive  Italian Yummyness 2 weeks ago, I travelled back to the land of Cumbria as I had a few days off work. Although I didn't get to see everyone as my trip got cut short, I did get to visit one of the most delicious restaurants going.  THE WILD OLIVE Isn't it the cutest? This is such a hidden gem, I hadn't heard of it before we went but as soon as I heard the word pizza I was sold.   Instead of rambling about how gorgeous, delicious, yummyness the food was, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.. Menus:   I have to say we are definitely a '3 course family'. There is none of this "just a starter and a main' or 'main and dessert', it's always 3 courses and maybe 4 if the option is available. Starters: Mains Although there is a lot of amazing choices on the menus, there was no doubt in my mind that I was getting pizza. Most people can agree that pizza is lif
