Maynard might be looking a little smug. BP Insurance Brokers What happens if your insurance isn’t right? With the best will in the world, organising insurance isn’t at the top of many people’s to-do lists - but there are plenty of reasons why it should be. Think for a moment about the value of everything in your home. All those shiny gadgets which have accumulated over the years, the furniture you’ve spent your hardearned money on… Consider how much it would cost to replace it all if the worst happened - not just the monetary cost, but the time it would take and the hassle you’d have to go through.
Their helpful team will discuss your particular needs and search the market for the right kind of policy - one that gives you enough cover, but has competitive premiums too. And if you’re ever unsure of whether or not your policy is right for you, you can pick up the phone and talk to a proper human being who understands your needs. (You know, just like you used to be able to do before the age of the internet.) Being a well established broking firm BP Insurance Brokers has longstanding business relationships with many household name insurance companies. As well as some insurance companies that are not household names. Using these relationships we can even arrange insurance for the more unusual home insurance cases. Previous claims, whether subsidence, fire, theft or what have you can be accommodated. High sums insured or unusual construction can all be catered for.
All too often, the peace of mind provided by home insurance tends to be overlooked, but Lancashire based BP Insurance Brokers are keen to stress the importance of getting the right cover. Every policy is unique, and if you haven’t looked into the details, you could find you come unstuck; theft, fire and flood are the traditional points of cover, but there are all kinds of extra considerations, such as high-value items like bicycles, There’s never a better time to get your home insurance sorted. Pop in golf clubs, antiques or specialist to BP Insurance Brokers in Cleveleys, hobby collections. We can even or call on 01253 863636, or visit bpib. provide extra cover for all those co.uk details. | FY5 3NE Christmas presents! 148 Victoria Road Westfor| Cleveleys

Why we should
eatSeasonally Hands up everyone who has mindlessly placed a punnet of tropical fruit in the shopping basket in the middle of winter. The bright colour of passion fruit brightens up a dark, gloomy day, doesn’t it? But it is not always the best option for our health. Nutritionists and health professionals have been emphasising the necessity of eating seasonally for a long time. To help their clients lose weight and keep it off, there is often the case for resetting the broken food and hunger mechanism – to restore the equilibrium where hungry means hungry, and not bored, depressed or cranky. In other words, to be in tune with our bodies and to distinguish between a natural craving, for example for a warming soup on a cold day, and the brain’s sneaky trick for a sugar tantrum.
Eating what’s in season helps bring us closer to nature.
Seasonal is natural
Eating seasonally is what nature intended – we have evolved to eat what grows in our climate. A refreshing watermelon on a hot summer day is bliss but do we really need it in winter? While there is no need to give up that strawberry on top of a dessert in December, giving some consideration to eating what’s in season is good for our health and wellbeing. So what to do if you were born in the Tropics but live in cold, wet Britain? Humans are an adaptable species, we can adjust to a new climate and what grows in it, within our lifetime. Meanwhile, if you go on holiday to the Caribbean in October, just enjoy the tropical fruit on offer. Tip: To find out what’s in season, you don’t have to consult a gardener or go shopping armed with charts and lists, simply shop in your local farm shop! Not only are you more likely to get produce grown at our local farms, the staff at the shop will happily tell you where their apples or potatoes come from. They will often even share their recipes!
Seasonal tastes best Fruit ripened in the sunshine tastes better than the variety produced in artificial conditions and flown across the world in the middle of winter. If you have ever tasted a grapefruit minutes after it had been picked off a tree, you will remember the taste forever. You will miss it here in Britain. But... Tip: If you leave a grapefruit to ripen in the sunshine of a south-facing window for a few days, it will become a lot sweeter.

Food & Drink
Seasonal means nutritious Nutritional value of fruit and vegetables starts deteriorating as soon as it’s harvested, and the longer it is stored, the more nutrients it loses. If you eat mostly out-of-season produce flown from thousands of miles away, you will miss out on some nutrients. On the other hand, seasonal food delivers a great range of vitamins and minerals which are important for our health and affect many systems of the body. Research into obesity, weight gain and related health issues has shed some light on the connection between the food we eat and our gut microbes. Very simply put, if we reduce the range of food we eat to heavily processed convenience meals, we drastically reduce the variety and the numbers of our gut microbes. This has been shown to have a number of implications, one of them being weight gain. Tip: For a nutritionally dense diet, include fruit and vegetables in a rainbow of colours, as fresh and local as possible.
Consider the cost... To the wallet and to the Environment Buying locally is a winner for our environment. The costs of transporting food across the world is usually passed on to the consumer, but even if you don’t mind the price hike on those strawberries in February, their taste and nutritional value will be inferior. Or think about it this way: if we keep supporting the insane trade of flying apples from the other side of the world, our own local farmers will struggle to sell theirs, and before you know it, the apple orchard will exist only as a street name.
When buying local food, you support the farmer who produces it. Let’s cherish the farming hands that feed us.
Recipe
Butternut Squash Soup By Dominic Chapman Cooking time: 50 minutes Serves 6
Ingredients: 1000g of butternut squash 1 large onion 200g of butter 1000ml of water 700ml of milk salt 1 pinch of cayenne pepper Peel the butternut squash, cut in half lengthways and scrape the seeds out. Slice the squash with a mandoline as thinly as possible Peel the onion, cut in half and slice as thinly as possible In a pan large enough to hold all of the ingredients, melt 150g of the butter over a low heat, being careful not to let the butter burn. Add the onion and butternut squash and sweat off over a low heat for 10 minutes Increase the heat, add the water and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are completely soft Remove from the heat and liquidise the soup. Pass through a fine sieve, then stir in enough milk to obtain a silkysmooth consistency. Be careful that you do not add too much milk, or the flavour will be diluted To finish the soup, whisk in the rest of the butter, check the seasoning and stir in a dash of cayenne pepper. Serve immediately
