What’s for dinner? It’s been a fun few weeks

What’s for dinner?
It’s been a fun few weeks trying out the new @mccain_sa sides which include Rosemary & Garlic Sweet Potato fries, Diced Potatoes and Diced Beetroot. These will now be a regular item on my shopping list as they are THE best time savers, but if I had to pick a favorite it will have to be the Rosemary and garlic sweet potato fries only because my kids love them so much! Have you tried them yet?
Check out my McCain IGTV videos and Reels for some inspiration as to how you can incorporate the sides with your meals.

A rare sighting of me wearing jeans in 2020👖💁🏻‍♀️😁
Active and lounge wear have been my outfits of choice while working from home and these days, if I wear a jeans or a dress, Aidan asks me why am I not wearing my “gym” clothes. As if I’m not allowed to dress up anymore 😅 What have you been living in during lockdown?
