How To Make Fresh Pasta And Bolognese Sauce - Cooking With Nonna Episode 1

October 14, 2018 Lauren Natalia

This week I have another video to share and it’s the first in a series I plan to do called

“Cooking With Nonna”

My Nonna has some awesome recipes to share and I thought it would be fun to spend some time in the kitchen with her, learning and also filming so I can share them with all of you!

Today’s we’re showing you how to make fresh homemade pasta and bolognese sauce. A basic recipe, but a staple, and I think it’s so great to see how Nonna cooks and all the little tips and tricks she has to share!

How To Spend A Perfect Day In Aix-en-Provence

A Travel Guide To Aix-en-Provence LaurenLovesLaughter.com.png

Today I have a fun travel post (and video!) sharing some of my favourite things to do in the beautiful city of Aix-en-Provence.
Located in the South of France, it was definitely one of my favourite places that we visited while on our honeymoon!

While I do of course love big cities like Paris, I always seem to fall head over heels for the smaller towns that just seem to have that extra special magic about them, and the area we stayed (right in the middle of the Old Town) was oozing with charm and delights around every corner!

Beautiful old buildings, moss-covered fountains (it’s known as “The City of a Thousand Fountains” for a reason!), and vibrant markets held in the town squares under the shade of giant plane trees.. a perfect French town to explore!

The Easiest Bircher Muesli Recipe

March 9, 2018 Lauren Natalia

Today I'm sharing the recipe for my current favourite breakfast - a delicious and super simple Bircher muesli!

I've always been a fan of bircher muesli but had never actually tried making it myself until last month when I was flicking through Lola's Berry's book - Beauty Food (a lovely Christmas present from my parents-in-law!)
I was inspired and decided to give it a go, with a few adaptations to simplify it (using ingredients I already had), and although my version is much more streamlined, it is still very yummy!

Super simple tuna, parsley and olive salad (that even tuna haters will love!)

January 11, 2018 Lauren Natalia

As many others do when a new year begins, I've set myself a health related "resolution" or "intention" and this year it's all about promoting wellness and energy through mindful eating
(+ movement!)

I'm not someone who is particularly enthusiastic about spending time in the kitchen, but I'm slowly adding simple and healthy recipes to my repertoire and have actually been really enjoying the process!

I thought that I would share some of these "cooking adventures" on the blog as I go along, in the hopes that it will inspire you too! ... and if I can make them anyone can - trust me!

First up is this yummy (and simple) tuna, parsley and olive salad. Even if you're not a fan of tuna (Tom doesn't usually eat it but really enjoyed this meal!) I'd recommend giving this a go as the other ingredients mean it doesn't taste "tuna-y" at all!

Esperance Travel Guide - Where to Stay, What to Do and The Best Places to Eat & Drink

December 7, 2017 Lauren Natalia

Today I'm sharing a little Esperance Travel Guide - What to do, where to stay and of course my food and drink recommendations! Tom and I spent 3 days in Esperance for our honeymoon (or "mini-moon" as we're calling it - we have plans for a bigger trip next year!) and had such a fab time. Being a 7.5 hour drive from Perth, it was somewhere that neither of us had been before and it really was lovely to explore a little more of Western Australia, this amazing state we get to call home.
