Food waste is a huge global problem. I hate food waste but my cut down on it doesn’t equal to the amount wasted each year. Every year around Christmas, roughly one third of the food produced in the world for human consumption gets lost or wasted every year. According to The Telegraph: This equates to…

The heat in London was unbearable, heatstroke and tummy bugs were way worse
We were up in Isleworth last week and whilst we had lots of plans to see friends, unfortunately we couldn’t do as much as we wanted. Dear God the heat in London was unbearable. I mean, I’ve lived in London most of my life and have experienced that heat before but since I’ve moved down…
I meal plan a week in advance, here’s why you should do it too
Keeping on track of what I need to cook for my family isn’t always the easiest task in the world. Most meals I cook for Sam and Emily, doesn’t always interest Emily. She’s good with her food but she’s a little-food-but-often kind of child, so a sit down meal in the evening before us adults…
We went to Giovanni Fletcher’s book signing in Canterbury

4 months after labour and my diet is pretty crap
In the first few months of my pregnancy, my diet consisted mainly of salt & vinegar crisps, sour Haribo and carbs. I wasn’t very big on eating anything healthy even though I was encouraged to do so, but spending so much time hugging a toilet and giving in to cravings, there really wasn’t much left…
What counts towards your water intake?
Whilst stuck indoors getting over my cold, I had to drink plenty of liquids to keep me hydrated and you’ll all know from my previous blog posts, I’m not a fan of drinking water as it is-come to think of it, I don’t know many people who jump at the chance of drinking water unless they’re…
Meal ideas to prepare for your new arrival: Chicken Noodle Soup
This is a great recipe that can be eaten for lunch or dinner. It’s also great if you have a cold and can’t take the normal over the counter remedies during pregnancy. Having had a cold the past week, this soup has been a lifesaver to keep the cold out, keep me and bump warm and…
