Child of Nature in 2010...

Happy New Year!! It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted on the blog. My little newborn is now a chubby 3 month old and my girl will be 18 months in just a few days…time just flies with babies. Each day is a dance where we work on harmonising our rhythms to achieve a sweet harmony. Sometimes our days flow beautifully like a well choreographed show whilst others are messy, clumsy and disorganised! Nonetheless...

And The Winner Is…....

Firstly a big thanks to everyone who made a guess in the baby guessing game - it was so much fun! The winner of our contest is Trudy Prevost who made such accurate estimates it’s amazing!

Most dasheen puff recipes advise using various amounts of milk, eggs, and butter which, as a vegan, put them off of my menu. So a few weeks ago in kitchen creativity I came up with my own vegan version which I share here with you. Be...

The Baby Guessing Game - Enter to Win!...

I love surprises and I can’t think of a bigger and better surprise in life than at the moment of birth to find out if the baby is a boy or a girl! Even though we have no idea what our current belly bump is going to be, that hasn’t stopped everyone guessing! People in town stop me and tell me with certainty that ‘it’s a boy because I’m carrying all up front’ or ‘it’s a girl because my tummy is round’. With...
