So this is our first vlog in a long time. It’s taken me a while to work out a time when my kitchen is not looking like a bomb has hit it, whilst also having 2 happy kids and a charged video camera. Phew. I made it. Lunches are the one meal that I really […]

My afternoons often consist of “Mummy my tummy’s hungry” from Miss K (age 4) and “Mor Mor” with a sign for “Eat” from J-boy (17 months). I swear the toddler boy could graze all afternoon if allowed! I’m constantly on the look out for tasty, healthy snacks for my kids. Generally I prefer to have

You remember that whole apple and peanut butter craze? If you liked that then you will love these. Don’t fret, if you are not a nut butter fan (my hubby isn’t) then I’m pretty sure you should try these too.

It was my birthday this week. I LOVE birthdays. However often I end up a little disappointed because nothing quite gets organised in time. So this time I took control of the matter and decided birthdays are for celebrating! Seeing it was to be a glorious sunny day I invited a few friends round for

It’s Blackberry season. Earlier than last year but then all fruit seems to have been. I love a bit of free food (who doesn’t) so myself and the kids have been off foraging. This typically leads to some very purple fingers, a few prickles and lots of eating but a few blackberries have made it

I’ve been properly wheat free for about 5 years now and in all that time I’ve yet to fully master the art of a decent bread. I’ll be honest it isn’t something I’ve spent much time on, but I probably should! Ask me to bake crumpets or pitta wheat free and I’ll rustle them up…

My family love pizza and so I usually make extra and we have leftovers for lunches. However being picnic weather I don’t always find cold pizza transports well. So this weekend I played around with making pizza pinwheels which have promptly been names pizza rolls by Miss K. Her initial comment was “Mummy what’s this”
