V Try U Buy - Chicken Pies Pt 1

Chicken pies are the perfect lunch time snack; when they’re steaming and stuffed with creamy filling I don’t think there’s any other savoury item that can be so yummy and also fill you up!

Pretty and posh Pocha

Well… Pocha came with her name. The ones who took her from the streets said they named her Portia (from The Merchant of Venice) but since she didn’t have the grace of Portia and more of a posh attitude, she became Pocha (Posh-Ah!)
