Chocolate Time!

Chocolate Time!

Chocolate time! Starting or finishing the day, chocolate is there for you! A bar or just a piece of chocolate, maybe chocolate in a box, or drinking choc in a cup. Chocolate is easily available and it brings a moment to enjoy, at the start of the day in Gibraltar with churros maybe, although that’s a great combo anytime of day, or before turning in at the end of the day. But when it comes to the end of the day, should you drink a cup of chocolate to ensure a good night’s sleep, or, a cup of cocoa? It might seem that cocoa should be the choice, but, cocoa has no less caffeine than chocolate. People who are very sensitive to caffeine may find it affects their sleep quality if they eat dark chocolate or drink hot cocoa too close to bedtime as both the caffeine and the theobromine in the cocoa bean are stimulants. However, hot chocolate made with cocoa mix is usually less caffeinated. ..drink chocolate to start the day!.. Chocolate is made from the cocoa bean, the name of the seed found in the fruit of cacao trees, which grow near the Equator. The beans are […]

Puffins in Gibraltar? Bird-watching during the Global Bird Weekend 17/18 Oct produced in the early counts, supported by binocular-makers Swarovski Optik, total species to date 5,725 recorded by 14,220 birders across the world and also produced some interesting questions about bird-watching, especially about migration. One of those questions, is “Where do UK puffins go in winter?” …answer is, puffins spend the autumn and winter out at sea but return to land to breed in late spring. In Gibraltar, three species of puffin have been recorded including the Atlantic puffin. In Gibraltar, three species of puffin have been recorded including the Atlantic puffin. In summer months in the North puffins will be seen in quantity in their colonies on the cliffs of Shetland and Orkney and further north in Iceland, home to more than half of the world’s puffin population but where do they go once the winter months arrive?…that, it seems, depends where the puffin colony is based but the UK’s puffins, the Atlantic puffin (fratercula arctica), spend the winter out at sea, in the North Atlantic and Arctic Ocean, feeding on fish and marine invertebrates. They are well-adapted to a life lived mostly on the water and can even […]

Top 5 immune boosting foods

Top 5 immune boosting foods

(BPT) – Immune boosting food choices you make can help you feel more energized and focused, but what some people may not realize is they also have a profound impact on your immune system. Incorporating certain foods into your diet can boost your immunity and help you feel your best. “In today’s uncertain times, it’s important now more than ever to maintain a strong immune system,” says registered dietitian and nutritionist Dawn Jackson Blatner. “By eating mindfully and adding nutrient-rich foods to your diet, you’re making a positive step to support your overall health and wellness.” Blatner recommends incorporating these five foods into your diet to support your immune system: Bell peppers: A colorful addition to your plate, bell peppers are rich in vitamin C. In fact, the vegetable has two to three times more vitamin C than an orange. Vitamin C is crucial for immune health because it increases the white blood cells that fight off infection. For the most vitamin C, it’s best to eat them raw or just lightly cooked. Eggs: Eggs (particularly the yolk) contain vitamin D, which is a nutrient the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) notes can help the immune system resist viruses and […]

Thank you for trying to keep our community and your workforce safe and healthy! There are various resources that may be downloaded or used for the workplace on this page. With the spread of COVID-19 businesses and workplaces should encourage their employees to work from home, wherever possible. This is particularly important for vulnerable employees [see bottom of page]. If someone becomes unwell in the workplace with flu type symptoms, they should be sent home and advised to contact 111. In terms of general guidance, it is good practice for employers to: Keep everyone updated on actions being taken to reduce risks of exposure in the workplace. Make sure everyone’s contact numbers and emergency contact details are up to date. Ensure managers know how to spot symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19) and are clear on any relevant processes, for example sickness reporting and sick pay, and procedures in case someone in the workplace is potentially infected and needs to take the appropriate action. Make sure there are places to wash hands, either with soap and water and/or 70% alcohol hand sanitizer, and encourage everyone to do so regularly.

Lookit Cookit

Lookit Cookit

It doesn’t take you long to realise that Judy Jackson’s attempt at getting kids interacting with food has a very different approach to other cookbooks. In fact, one look at the ‘Un-contents’ alone (a list of what isn’t in the book) will suffice: No long recipes or lists of ingredients you don’t have 

No mention of eating five-a-day or hiding vegetables in a sauce. Fruit and the green things are not to be taken like medicine, before you’re allowed dessert 

No instructions for making Chocolate Rice Krispies – if you want to get messy fingers there are more exciting things to cook – like Sticky Chicken Wings or Blueberry Pancakes. With that in mind, it’s probably best to focus on what Lookit Cookit does offer, which is plenty. Jackson, a food writer herself, has compiled over 25 kitchen games, 130 photos and innumerable hours of research to deliver a publication that aims to do two key things: encourage children to enter the kitchen, and get them interested in food. Not least, what goes into a dish and why those elements may appeal to their palate. The idea presumably being that when people are more aware of what it is they […]
