Cooking in Comfort

For our second feature, Becky and I produced a short cooking guide in which we prepared a three course meal for four people at just £12. The aim of the feature was to show young people on a budget, and also as Sally Churchward said on WINOL LIFE it can be aimed at people with a good income, that cooking at home can save you money.

So many people are always going to restaurants, sometimes more than they would like to purely because the food is quick and it's easy. However, our feature shows you that it can be just as easy in the comfort of your own home, cooking with your friends and it does save you a lot of money.

Becky and I learnt a lot from the feature ourselves, particularly as I have never actually cooked a meal from scracth (scary thought), so this allowed me to see for myself just how fun and educating cooking can be.

This was also our first time on WINOL LIFE, a chat show where are features are shown to a professional guest who then give us their feeback. It's a great oppurtnity to recieve a professional opinion and advice in order for us to improve on our future features.

Sally Churchward was our guest on this week's WINOL LIFE and she gave us some great advice about our cooking feature. She told us that the shots were brilliant and the whole idea and aim of the feature was very impressive. However, she did say that we need to bring ourselves into the feature more so we have more time in front of the camera. She also said we were fashionable but we knew that already.

We have taken her advice on board with our feature this week so you will have to come back to watch it!
