Motherhood, homemaking, family recipes & more!
Talking about the highs and lows of motherhood and homemaking, as well as sharing recipes and snippets of our family life. From home birth to sleep training. We’re trying, testing and sharing it all. Follow along as we learn what works (and doesn’t) for our family as it grows.
Each week I will be sharing the experiences, successes and failures of family life. Topics like potty training our one-year old; our private home birth story; our best and worst new born purchases; my experience colostrum harvesting while pregnant; and introducing a sibling. In other words, an account of my motherhood journey. A reminder of the sweetest and hardest moments of our life with a growing family. And hopefully, a source of solidarity, inspiration, laughter and information for others.
I love cooking. My kitchen never closes. Food is my love language. Now I have little ones with endless appetites, I have become even more focused on creating flavourful and healthy food. From toddler snacks to date night meals, I cook and create it all. Our health is always at the heart of what I make and bake. This is my index of tried and tested from-scratch recipes that have a focus on whole foods. Our household is always short on time, so our no fuss recipes are simple and quick to put together.
