I CANNOT express how grateful I am for this little goodies box! Two sick kids, 40 minutes sleep since midnight and I am (literally right now) living on caffeine and my crunchy lupin granola! My eyes are hanging out of my head but (I think) I’m still functioning. I’m always on the look out for…

Mushrooms Revisited
With both my pregnancies I was iron deficient. My doctor told me “mushrooms, eggs and green leafy vegetables”. My doctor was brilliant, so what she said was gospel, and that was how I started to eat. My husband was still playing football during my pregnancies(and still is), which left me to my own devices two…
Brekky on the Run

As a lover of fine food coupled with everyday living, about two years ago I started a kitchen garden. My thumbs are a very dry and dull shade of brown – everything I plant tends to die. My grandparents on the other hand are not only phenomenal gardeners, they’re entirely self-sufficient, as in, they actually…
Lemon Lupin Bliss Balls
So here I am. A borrowed Thermomix at the ready, an online lemon bliss ball recipe on my phone and a pretty good idea as to how this was going to play out. Simple – replace the almond meal with lupin flour. I am a genius, job done. I’m not a big emoji user but…
