Why I’m no longer vegan – ditching the labels

August 15, 2018

Eighteen months ago, I went vegan. It was a snap, overnight decision. I’ve been vegetarian on and off for pretty much all of my life, Lola came to me having watched a documentary and said she wanted to go veggie again, so I said I would too. THen I decided to take it to the...

A family meal plan for November

November 1, 2017

Somehow October’s meal plan never happened, and after a month of winging it, I am ready to be back in a world of meal plans!! It’s so much easier to have a month’s worth of meals planned ahead of time. Saves me time, money and food waste. Without a meal plan, I always get to 5...

A family meal plan for August

August 2, 2017

Summer meal planning… to be honest, the last couple of weeks I’ve not stuck to religiously to my meal plan. We’ve BBQ’d whenever it’s been dry enough or had more ‘picky dinners’ out in the garden after a busy day out when I haven’t felt like cooking. And that’s OK – the beauty of meal...

A family meal plan for July

July 5, 2017

Another month, and another meal plan! I’m still finding it so much easier to plan a month at a time – though last month we ended up going away for a few days, and then I kind of just made meals up when we got back! But on a whole, having the month planned out...

A family meal plan for a month

April 5, 2017

I’ve shared MEAL PLANS on here before, though not for a while. Meal planning has slipped these last few months, I’ve not had the brain power to think more than a few hours ahead, so it’s been a case of scramble whatever I can find for dinner each night. The past couple of weeks I’ve...

Vegan eating

November 1, 2014

Burrito Bowls // Butternut Squash Pasta // Mexican Quinoa // Honey-Lime Quinoa Stuffed Sweet Pototoes For the past couple of months, we’ve been making a concious effort to reduce the amount of dairy we were eating. We don’t use cows milk and use a vegan spread – we have ever since Lola was around 5,...

Vegetarian & Vegan Food Guide – London

October 22, 2014

We’ve been promising the girls a London holiday for the past year. We’d planned to go this autumn, but with bubba on the way decided to put it on hold for a little longer. It’s now pencilled in to our diaries for next year, figuring London with a baby who can go in a sling...
