5 Things You Must do this Winter

1. Plan a mid winter break there are so many great deals...and the pacific is quick and easy to get to, even Brisbane and the Gold Coast is worth another look...warmer temps really do lift the mood. My favourite has to be Pacific Resort Aitutaki.

2. Invest in a great coat - I love the snuggly feeling and often find it hard to shed even when inside. There are so many great deals on at the moment…go online have a look and high tail it to your nearest store. Buy your favourite coat at a tiny price.



3. Switch to red wine, we have so many great syrah's and pinots in this country and now is the time to enjoy them. Try, Vidals 2009 Syrah, at the moment you can pick it up at most New World’s for a tiny price and it is divine.

4. Be okay about a couple of extra kg’s this winter. Enjoy comfort food - soups, roasts, hot puddings, now is the best time. If you live in Auckland or Hamilton give www.myfoodbag.co.nz a go…I’m loving it!

5. Use the weekends to catch up on all the movies that you never get to watch... Now is the time. Bleak weather outside, a warm fire inside, comfy couch to curl up on…the best way to while away a Sunday...
