I only had a wrap!

You know the way you're out and about and you say to yourself 'sure I'll just pick up a wrap somewhere...' Just remember all warps are not created equal! These bad boys look lovely and tasty and honestly they're not even that big are ones that I would just grab on the go and think to myself 'I only had a wrap at lunch time!' The beauty with WW is, if you want it, have and point it! Simples! Anyone tried the Spic Box one? I'm dying to know if it's nice! x

Up today is some of the range from Seafeast! Succulent seafood products, specially sourced. You'll find them in Tesco, Dunnes and SuperValu for sure!
