2020 is off to a good start. I don't make resolutions but I do look back and see if there are things I can improve on. Over the last few months my meal planning hasn't been very good and as a result my diet (not my kids) has been lacking structure and health. So with the first shop of the year, I bought a load of vegetables to kick off this new week with a bang. . Healthy salads are on the menu again. Less bread and less alcohol between Monday and Friday. . . My first post of the year is a take on a Donna Hay recipe. Hope you like it as much as I do. . Cauliflower, spinach and grilled vegetable salad is on the blog now. . . #newyearresolutions #2020 #health #healthyeating #healthykidsfood #life #january #salads #familyfood #salad #cauliflowerrice #vegetables #onmytable #inmykitchen #foodandwine #kitchenfeasts #irishfoodblog #instafood #delicious #healthylifestyle #meatfreemonday #mealprep #organic #nutrition #lunch

With the crazy weather, the rapid upcoming arrival of Christmas and a heavy work load, I am dreaming of curling up with a big bowl of my sweet potato and bean stew later. This is super healthy, packed full of goodness and extremely tasty. Even my mother who is not a fan of sweet potatoes ate a bowl of this and asked when I was going to share the recipe. . So at long last, my recipe for my Sweet Potato and Bean Stew is on the blog now. . . #stew #sweetpotato #beans #healthyfood #health #familyfood #winter #winterblues #food #batchcooking #mealprep #recipe #irishfoodblogger #kitchenfeasts #cooking #christmas #avocado #rice #flatlay #cookingfortwo #simple #onepotmeal #foodandwine #irishkitchen #delicious #getinmybelly

We lost our daughter 4 years and 9 months ago to this day. I talk about Elena at every oportunity I can. She and her brother are my world and the family I hand made. This month is pregnancy and infant loss awareness month. Too many people have to suffer and feel heart break around this topic. Wear pink and blue to celebrate the ones you have lost. Light up your candles on the 15th for the international wave of light across the world in rememberance of your loved ones. . . #october #international #pregnancyandinfantloss #pregnancyandinfantlossawareness #lifeafterloss #loss #childloss #children #grief #stillbirth #family #momentsofmine #life #mumlife

We baked up a storm this weekend. Baking with my kid is just such fun and so funny. We throw practicality to the wind and usually end up in an all out flour throwing war 🙂. . Sharing my dark chocolate and berry muffin recipe today to help eliminate those back to school blues or just combating (counting my own here) grief. . Recipe on the blog today. . . #baking #bakingwithkids #cake #muffins #backtoschool #blues #grief #family #familyfood #familytime #blueberries #raspberries #treattime #kitchenfeasts #recipe #blog #foodblogger #momentsofmine #inmykitchen #honestmotherhood #lifeafterloss

Lots of new followers this week so just wanted to introduce myself. . I am Vanessa and this huge bundle of joy in my arms is Alexander. He is my youngest. His sister Elena died 4 years ago and so I live for every single moment of motherhood that I get to share with Alexander. Being here with him is a total blessing. We have our ups and downs like any family, as a mum you worry and stress over everything but even with the picky eating and the threenager tantrums, every moment is just awesome and I am super lucky. . I started my blog years ago for reasons I cannot even remember now, but now I blog just to have a creative outlet. It isn't about gaining followers or to be popular but about just sharing my moments and a few helpful and nice recipes and also some funny stories about our life. . So welcome to the new followers and thank you for continued support to those that have been there from the start.
