We will introduce a new person each week, so make sure you follow along.
I’m Alicia and I am a food blogger and content creator living in London, and this is a day in my life. Despite being a food blogger that focuses on baking, I love staying healthy and cooking healthy meals, that’s why I think it’s super important to use the best ingredients in my bakes and any food I have.
8:00 am - One of the first things I do when I wake up is make myself a cup of hot water with lemon and a big spoonful of Steens Manuka honey, I swear this is the one thing that keeps me cold free all year long! I drink my hot water while getting ready, today is a sunny day, so sun cream is definitely a must! While I get ready, I usually mentally plan my day, today I am filming a new recipe, so I need to get all the ingredients I need.
08:45 - Once I am ready, it’s time to get out, I usually go for a really long walk in the morning which tends to end at the supermarket, where I get all my ingredients and hope I haven’t forgotten anything (I usually do!). Once my shop is done, it’s time to head back home and start baking. Today I’m making an upside-down peach cake. I am filming the recipe and photographing it.
1:00 - After finishing, I am exhausted. Let me tell you, creating content is not easy work! I made myself a quick chicken salad for lunch with a homemade Steens Manuka honey mustard dressing.
2:30 - I spent my afternoon editing all the pictures I took, sending emails and also doing some exciting calls.
7:00 My boyfriend and I had some salmon tacos for dinner (so easy and good!) and finished the day playing some games and seeing the most beautiful sunset.
“I have used Steens Manuka for such a long time now and I would never thing of using anything else; I know exactly what I am taking when I use it and that’s really important to me. I love that they have such a varied range of products that I can use in all different aspects of my life based on my needs, I don’t need to adapt to the products, they adapt to me!”
