This Easter Miss K is 4. Already she is telling me that the Easter bunny will be coming with chocolate eggs – which is not something she has picked up from home… so today we took full advantage of our local churches and descended into the full on Mess of Messy Church. Good Friday morning we […]
Welcome 2015, resolve to relax.
2014 you were officially a whirlwind. With a baby, a preschooler and 2 businesses to run I had to cut maternity leave short and get right back into the craziness of working around my littlies. Trust me this is not recommended and leads to generalised chaos, very little sleep and a never ending to-do list. […]
Tea Pigs Review
It’s a well known fact that I love tea… the two teas I was sent to review from Tea Pigs are not my usual cuppa, so it was great to try something new. They have a great branding and the products just look good. I was sent: Organic Matcha. This is made from green tea leaves, […]
Turning 4.
Miss K turned 4 this week. I absolutely love birthdays and wanted her to have a party that suited her. This is a girl who likes smaller rather than larger, likes to be in a space she is familiar with, has a creative spirit and sparkles! For her actual birthday she celebrated with sushi, an […]

Sundays are special. My day off work, a time for family, a time to wind down and slow down the pace. Today we went out for an advent to Mottisfont and explored the grounds. A great place for kids as they have amazingly created dens, things to find and open space to run in. Plenty […]

Sticky and Sweet Greengage Flapjacks
We are lucky enough to have a large plum and a large greengage tree in our garden. Cue lots and lots of yummy fruit which cannot be wasted. With the immense flapjack love I have and the glut of greengages this one was a no brainer – it worked REALLY well. These are healthier as […]
Priya finalist for British Dietetic Association Media Spokesperson of the Year!
It’s been an exciting month. A couple of weeks ago I had the great honour of going to the British Dietetic Association Awards Evening. Somehow I had made it through as one of 3 finalists for the Media Spokesperson of the Year Award. To be a finalist for an award for my professional was something […]
Coconut Oil: Is it all its cracked up to be?
I’m half Srilankan, a country where the coconut is a bit of celebrity and the whole of it is used in various ways. I must admit to not being a fan of coconut water or plain coconut but I do love it in a curry! The lastest craze of coconut oil has been one I’ve […]
