Anchor Butter is bringing back Elevenses!
Well.… It never really went anywhere; it’s just been a little forgotten. We want to inspire people who feel the need to have a nice little sit, with a cup of tea and a nibble at around 11 o’clock.
You might call us crazy, but we find that a buttered crumpet or slice of cake at this time of day is just what’s needed. The kids are at school, you’ve made countless packed lunches, the dogs’ been for a walk and before you start your day (as if it hasn’t already been going for hours!) you need a bit of a recharge.
We want people to embrace this mid morning snack, in all its glory and we want you to join us! To help bring Elevenses back we’d like to offer all the readers of Frugal Family the chance to win a full set of Anchor memorabilia! That’s a butter dish, a pair of egg cups, a cake stand, a cake tin, a tea towel, an apron and a toy van!
All you have to do is leave a comment below to tell us what’s your favourite elevenses snack? Please don’t forget to leave details in your comment so we can contact you if you win. For a bonus entry you can tweet ‘I want to bring back Elevenses with @Anchor_dairy and @frugalfamily - http://bit.ly/zecly6‘. Please don’t forget to leave a second comment if you do tweet though otherwise your extra entry won’t be counted. The competition closes at 8pm on 18 January 2012 and the winner will be notified shortly after.
In the meantime, we’d love to talk to you more so why not hop over to Anchor’s Facebook and Twitter for a chat.

A cup of coffee, toasted t cake with anchor butter ;0)
I'm thinking that this giveaway is only for the UK, but if a US blogger qualifies, I'd have to say a cup of tea and a slice of cheese on toast. Just what I need to get me re-energized!
Oops, sorry the above posts are by @gidders1 twitter. Thank you

I tend to stay savoury in the morning and sweet in the afternoon (ooh-er). That's out of the window if someone brings goodies into work, but my current favourite is a large handful of roasted peanuts. They go surprisingly well with coffee.

Definitely a massive mug of tea and a homemade fairy cake – my son loves chocolate ones with chocolate icing. Well
Oooo, it's got to be a cup of coffee with a lovely, buttery shortbread (or 2;)) for me. emma.drage@gmail.com xxx

Mmmm Elevenses! I love a potato scone with butter or a cherry scone with butter
Banana with some peanut butter in the middle- a peanut butter banana 'sandwich'! Sounds horrid tastes Delicious!

My favourite snack is Malt Loaf – the chance of sitting down for elevenses would be just amazing!!

a nice chocolate biscuit!
No! No! No! This is why this country is over weight! I go to France most years and I'm stunned by how slim they are, even though they eat big meals. It's because they don't snack! My advice, only eat at the table and at meal times. No elevenses here!
My favourite snack is peanut butter on toast,i could eat that anytime of the day not just 11 o clock
