Blog goals 2016

Goals, don't we just love them? I apply goals to pretty much every aspect of my life. And now I've actually decided to put pen to paper on my blogs goals for the rest of 2016. I'm fully aware we are practically at the end of the year but with a new job on the horizon and with a chance to channel more energy into my blog I feel that it is quite fitting to do this post. So what would I like to achieve by New Year's Eve?  Firstly get one of my YouTube videos to 1000 views and if I'm really lucky double my subscribers to 50.  Try and reach 1750 worth of Instagram followers, if anything this will be the hardest, because no matter how hard I try with this platform I tend to find its a little bit like taking one step forward two steps back. I'm hopefully going to reach this by posting more good quality content and engaging more with new followers. To do Vlogmas. Whether this will happen is another story, perhaps I will aim for a mix of vlogs and blogs?

This was probably my favourite thing I've received through my front door, Jim Jams Chocolate Spread*. I got a chance to try the hazelnut chocolate spread and also the milk chocolate spread, personally the hazelnut chocolate spread is my favourite, only because y'know its similar to Nutella (no point beating around the bush is there?). So whats so good about Jim Jams Spreads? Well, all their products have considerably less sugar then most spreads, their jams have higher fruit content but less sugar in them. The chocolate spread has 83% less sugar than other chocolate spreads. The spread contains Maltitol, which is a sugar alcohol found naturally in some fruit and veg, this is how Jim Jams creates their chocolately goodness, at a lower sugar content. The spreads are suitable for vegetarians and are gluten free, they are also suitable for diabetics. As the chocolate spread contains less sugar it also means it has less calories, which means you can eat twice as much!
