March 3, 2022 Veronika Gaddis

A gem of a city easily reached by rail from Liverpool. Small yet packed to the rafters with history, culture and stylish cafe/bar culture. At its heart, the historic black-and-white timbered "rows" provide a shopping experience like no other place on the planet.

Bought a server course as a Christmas present by my wife and we attended at the end of February. A full course of 16 people all playing with knives, charcoal, gas, naked flames and chocolate. What could happen? Well the food was fabulous abs the tune rolled by so fast it was brilliant. Who knew that sumptuous chocolate desserts could be done on the bbq? Or roast pork loin with crispy crackling? Risotto bbq? Let alone really thin crispy pizza too make the wood fitted pizza lovers jealous. At head a great day and Brian e really helpful friendly approachable and made it feel very like a community event rather than a course of 16 strangers.

My Slow Experience

Make & take your very own organic skincare products ! In this hands on workshop session, you will make and take home 2 natural beauty products. You can pick between a range of products and taylor them for yourself : shampoo bar, bath bombs, solid moisturiser, aloe vera lotion, solid body scrub, cold cream, lip balm, cleansing lotion.. During one hour and a half hour, Lucie will explained how to make your products, using the suitable ingredients to suit your skin/hair, and then you will tailor your own natural beauty products ! You could enjoy a tea or a coffee during the session. All that in a warm and playful atmosphere ! From sept 2020, I am back to DIY cosmetics sessions… with new routine : mask, hand sanitizer, small group session , don't do mixed groups – only ones you organise yourself. Message me to arrange something special for you! Making your own daily products is a very rewarding and delightful experience !
