Return of the Mac

Team Thomas were also at Cuttle Brook, Swarkestone in Derbyshire at the Sami Tipi open weekend this month. Meeting lots of newly engaged couples who all braved the snow to come and see the giant tipis, as they stood firm against the elements – having just seen them do their thang in Lapland, our flurry of the white stuff looked tame in comparison. We cooked up some warmers in the form of our awesome pimp my mac and cheese stall. The concept is so simple yet so much fun. You take a regular bowl of our yummy mac and cheese and add the toppings of your choice – Mac’tastic!
