Winter is well and truly upon us, bringing with it frosty mornings and freezing cold evenings, and that’s just on the days when it’s not raining!

So today I thought I’d share some tips and tricks for staying warm this winter that should help both the planet and your hip pocket!
If you’ve been around these parts for long then you’ll know I’m a rather large fan of homemade dips, there are so many flavour combinations and they’re generally super easy to whip up, so making them at home just makes sense!
