 Jane and I recorded this IN PERSON on my trip to the UK and I think you'll be able to tell we had a BLAST!

We got to catch up with Heidi from Eat, Live, Sleep Herefordshire over a fabulous pot of tea at incredibly charming and delicious The Nest.  And, lucky us, Bruno (the CEO of Little Verzons Farm) joined us!  It was completely spur of the moment and I couldn't believe I went all the way to Hereford, UK to mee...

Yep, it's a teeny tiny departure from our usual foodie topics.  But, as you know, here on Foodie Friends, we often veer off topic!

If you've feeling unsure or even fearful about making a change, following your dreams, taking a left turn when you usually turn right, hopefully this episode gives you a bit of inspiration to go after what makes you truly happy!!

Jane and I are digging deep into the latest TikTok trend......the girl dinner.  Have you heard about it?  It hasn't quite made it's way across the pond to the UK, but it seems like everyone in the US is making girl dinners. 

Who doesn't love a no cook, snack-y dinner?  Personally, we'd love to rename it.....and we've got a couple of idea...

Welcome back, Foodie Friends!

This episode has little more of a serious tone, but we truly believe it's an incredibly important conversation to have.  As women we have so many unrealistic images constantly thrown at us, which makes it challenging to appreciate ourselves exactly as we are. 

How do we ignore the messaging and learn to embrace our bodies?

Is that even a possibility with social media?...
