Best of Houzz Service Award 2018 Winners www.houzz.co.uk/pro/happykitchens “My wife and I felt that our kitchen was looking tired and needed an update. We had already had the worktops changed, but felt that the whole appearance needed to be updated. So we called in Ben from Happy Kitchens who showed us examples of what could be achieved and we decided to go ahead. The Happy Kitchens fitters were brilliant, their workmanship is second to none and they were very helpful when questions arose. The trans-formation has been incredible and worth every penny. We would definitely recommend them to others thinking about updating their kitchens.� - Mr and Mrs Smith

It's Valentine's Day on February 14th but as well as showing the love you have for others, why not practise a little self-care too?

1

Here are 10 ways to give yourself a little love: Turn off and look inwards.

Switch off the television and your phone, grab a hot drink or a healthy smoothie, snuggle up in a comfy chair and just take stock. Think about your dreams, your plans and how you might realise them.

Get creative.

There are huge psychological benefits to creating and crafting. Join a pottery or painting class, try a basket-making or blacksmithing workshop, or start writing. Creativity taps into something deep inside us.

Go for a walk.

Britain has the most beautiful countryside and we are blessed with a vast network of footpaths and lanes. Be mindful of crop fields (and livestock) and take a reusable water bottle. Look at the trees and plants, watch and listen for wildlife, and feel the breeze on your skin. Take some deep breaths and fill your lungs with fresh air.

5

4

Treat yourself to a massage.

Massage is fantastic for relaxation, getting rid of aches and pains, and improving circulation.

Make a Good Things Jar. Get a large jar, and every day write on a scrap of paper one good thing about your day, then put it into the jar. At the end of the year, read all those lovely happy thoughts.

6 7 89 10

Stop the comparisons.

You are you, and you are...

Put your favourite song on and dance!

Up your intake of dark green leafy veg. Your body will love you for it.

Ask for a hug. Hugs make us happy and the love goes both ways!

In January we selected our chosen charities for 2018 which were: The Elizabeth Foundation, The Rosemary Foundation, HART Wildlife Rescue and RNLI Lifeboats.

It’s been great to share the latest news from these amazing charities across Hampshire, and to do our bit to raise awareness.

Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to indulge in a sweet treat, whether you’re enjoying a night in with family, friends, or your partner. Waffles are the perfect desert (or main event) to celebrate the most romantic day of the year as they are easy to make, and ideal for sharing!

HOW TO MAKE IT: Add flour, cocoa, sugar and baking powder to a large bowl, and gradually stir in the milk and egg mix until combined. Whisking until the batter is completely smooth, and double check for any lumps. You can make the batter up to 2 hrs before and leave at room temperature, or alternatively make up to 4 hrs ahead and chill.

Preheat your waffle maker and brush with a little oil. Pour in half the batter, close and cook for 3 mins, or longer depending on your machine. Once cooked, repeat with the remaining batter. Alternatively, if you don’t have a waffle maker you can cook half the mixture on a preheated griddle brushed with oil for 2 mins each side over a medium heat, then repeat with the remaining batter.

Melt the chocolate with the cream over a medium heat and whisk constantly. Once melted, take off the heat and add 1 tbsp milk to thicken the chocolate mixture.

Halve each waffle and arrange on a large plate. Serve with your favourite sweet of savoury topping such as ice cream and raspberries, chocolate sauce, or bacon and maple syrup.

YOU WILL NEED:

Cut & Keep!

• Waffle maker • 75g plain flour • 1 tbsp cocoa powder • 1 tbsp caster sugar • 1 tsp baking powder • 100ml milk, plus 1 tbsp, 1 egg • 20g dark chocolate, 20g white chocolate broken into pieces • 4 tbsp whipping cream • 2 scoops soft-scoop vanilla ice cream • 50g raspberries
