I hope all’s well\u2026<\/p>\n

As May shows off its spectacular spring finery, we once again unpack our fave short sleeves, trousers and dresses or shop for new styles purchased in preparation for summertime – or is it partytime? With al fresco lunches, get togethers and barbecues!<\/p>\n

This summer is extra special as next month, over an extended bank holiday weekend, the nation celebrates her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee, marking an incredible 70 years on the throne. Communities and families across the country will come together enjoying street parties, fetes and carnivals.<\/p>\n

At the Q we want to do our best to help you prepare for this special summer in the form of our Summer Garden Celebration Event<\/strong>, which is also held over four days from this Friday (9pm) until the end of Tuesday (17th). Saturday and Sunday will be geared towards preparing your garden and\/or party food for the Jubilee and Monday and Tuesday will be more focused on fashion and beauty ideas, to help you achieve your best summer look.<\/p>\n

On Saturday we also have a Bell & Howell<\/strong> set of four 21 Lumens Solar Flame\/White Stake Lights<\/strong> as our Today’s Special Value (TSV) to add an evening ambience to your patio, garden or pathway, powered by the sun.<\/p>\n

Then on Sunday Andi Peters and I will be presenting two Andi Peters’ Food Fest Specials<\/strong> from 11am – 1pm and again at 3pm – 5pm, brought to you live from our fabulous QVC garden (weather permitting). Andi and I will \u00a0be showcasing the Ninja Ice Cream Maker<\/strong> TSV with Gail Samways, which makes it so easy to make your own ice creams, gelatos, sorbets etc. just as you like it – ready for the celebrations! It features seven one-touch churning programs and comes with five dessert storage tubs and of course, a recipe guide.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

You simply create (or buy) your own mix, be it custard, cr\u00e8me fraiche or smoothie, then pop it into one of the supplied storage containers, freeze it for 24 hours and pop it back into the Ninja Ice Cream Maker to let it churn away on your chosen setting. The result is a smooth, soft and delicious treat to enjoy immediately or put back in the freezer for later – ideal for any ice cream lover with special dietary requirements.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

There\u2019s also a setting for \u201cadding in\u201d your favourite ingredients. I experimented with salted caramel chocolate flakes and a tiny wee dram of Chocolate Velvetised Liquor<\/a> from Hotel Chocolat<\/strong> <\/a>added to my shop-bought luxury custard base – naughty but nice! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
