AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @p AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @pottersresortsfivelakes with @slwilson84. It was an action packed three nights with a full activity and entertainment programme, great food, lovely drinks and beautiful surroundings. 

The staff go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home and they ensure that everyone has the best time possible. I don’t think I stopped smiling all weekend.

The best thing about Potters holidays is that everything is included in the price you pay. Four meals a day, all your drinks - including wine, Prosecco, most spirits and soft drinks - great accommodation and so many activities. 

I’ll write a full review soon but for now here’s a little Reel of our weekend
I always have a lot of questions about accommodati I always have a lot of questions about accommodation when we stay anywhere as a family so I thought I’d share this little tour of our room at @windjammerlanding which was a pretty perfect place to stay.

It’s the ‘Ocean View Two Bedroom’ which was like a little house, with an upstairs and downstairs, built into the hillside. Both rooms had outdoor space and their own shower rooms. Such a great option for a family.
A little photo dump from our holiday in St Lucia. A little photo dump from our holiday in St Lucia. We’ve been back a few days now but still miss the heat, the food, the pool, the constant sounds of wildlife and the lovely people. It was such a great holiday and I’m sure we’ll be back one day.
And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is watching her grow and what a wonderful young woman she is becoming. We could not be more proud. Love you Pickle, have a great birthday.
We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in S We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in St Lucia staying at @windjammerlanding and it was just the holiday we needed. Two weeks of sunshine and relaxation in what must be one of the most beautiful islands in the world. 

We can’t wait to go back again in the future. Here’s just a little snippet of our trip.
AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @na AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @national_motor_museum despite the rain! The children loved the Little Beaulieu play area and we loved exploring the National Motor Museum and Top Gear exhibit before having a ride on the monorail! We went on an old open topped bus, explored the Beaulieu Manor House and loved the gardens. 
Beaulieu is always a great day out - whatever the weather. This summer they have a whole ‘Summer of Fun’ planned, with activities most days - parades, bird shows and hundreds of sculptures within the grounds too. If you’re looking for a day out this summer definitely think about heading to Beaulieu.
AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to t AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to their first concert - but it was so much more than just a concert! @abbavoyage is incredible. With CGI ABBA and a live band, it’s like being at an ABBA concert 40 years ago but with modern lighting, effects and sound. ABBA look and sound real, it’s a mind blowing experience.
The set includes all the songs you know and love as well as a few less familiar ones.
You can’t take photos during the show which actually made a refreshing change. A whole arena focused purely on the show and soaking up the moment. It’s definitely something the four of us will always remember.
Now, I’m off to sing Dancing Queen all the way home.
AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdo AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdockyard today. They have a fantastic Ultimate Explorer ticket that lets you visit all the attractions as many times as you like for 12 months - and after a day at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard we can see that you need more than one day to really do everything!

We explored HMS Warrior, HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Exhibition - which is incredible! We also saw where ships are built and restored and spent time in Action Stations where the kids climbed and did an assault course.

Portsmouth Historic Dockyard is such a fun, educational day out with something for all ages - we can’t wait to go on their harbour tours next time we visit!

The Slow Cooker Mustard Chicken and Bacon is the perfect meal to put in your slow cooker on a busy week day – before work or after the school run – and leave to cook all day. When you get home you just need to throw leeks in for the last thirty minutes and the dish is ready when you are.

When should we cook this dish?

This is a great slow cooker chicken casserole to enjoy all year round but it’s especially wholesome and warmer throughout the winter months. It would also work well as a pie filling and it’s something we love to cook regularly as it’s so easy to make and full of flavour too.

If you’re looking for a meal that the whole family will enjoy and that works well on a weekday evening but would also be great as more of a special meal, a meal for an occasion, then the Slow Cooker Bacon Mustard and Chicken is a great option.

Crock pot meals are so family friendly and they are key to organising busy family life. This creamy mustard chicken slow cooker recipe can be batch cooked and doubled up easily and it works best using boneless skinless chicken thighs rather than chicken breasts as they stay moist throughout cooking.

You could also throw new potatoes into the mix to make it a really filling one pot meal if you don’t have time to cook potatoes separately. You could also cook pasta to make it a mustard chicken pasta dish.

One thing’s for sure, however you cook it, the Slow Cooker Mustard Chicken Bacon casserole will be a hit with everyone who tries it. The flavours work wonderfully together and it really is a joy to eat and savour. It’s the ultimate comfort food.

You can find more slow cooker recipes here and a few of our favourites are our Slow Cooker Mustard Chicken and Bacon, Slow Cooker Chicken and Chorizo Casserole and Slow Cooker Chicken & Haricot Bean Stew. You can see all our recipes to date here.
