Soooo I have long been in the parenting game of phases but this current phase is actually pretty great. My son loves to bake and eat his rewards and currently is obsessed with gingerbread men. What isn't to love about this phase? . Gingerbread men are crunchy, spicey and damn tasty especially when adorened with smarties and chocolate. . It's a win win really. New post and recipe on the blog now. . www.kitchenfeasts.com . #cookingwithkids #bakingwithkids #cookingfortwo #blw #blf #toddlers #family #familyfun #baking #singlemum #gingerbread #biscuits #cookies #gingerbreadmen #chocolate #smarties #getinmybelly #inmykitchen #recipe #flatlay #snacks #goodfood #foodandwine #treats #motherhood #familyfood #yummyfood #healthykidsfood

I have to own up and admit that my house is so very not enviromentally friendly. I am rather ashamed of it. I do recycle and compost but I am a divil for single use snack bags and plastic based cleaning equipment. I would like to improve. And slowly I will. . My vow from here is to change one element a week. I find enviromentally friendly items rather expensive very much worth it, but to do it all in one go, well I cannot quite afford it. . So this week I started with the snack bags. And I saw these @fullcircle adorable bags in @meadowsandbyrne and it kicked me into gear. They are durable and cute, Bpa free and enviromentally friendly and they have a great design that they stand up for easy filling 👍. . Next week I will invest in bees wax cloths. .

This week I lost a dear friend of mine. I learned on Wednesday evening of his passing and it has truely shaken me to the core. We were not in each others daily lives but we have over the years together celebrated our marriages, the birth of our children, the buying of our first homes and he was there through my dark days when my daughter died and generally been a long lasting part of my life. A truely unique and generous man. His funeral yesterday showed me just how admired and loved he was. He was tireless with his activism and always had time for anyone who needed it. He leaves behind 6 beautiful children and a strong and brave wife. His death has reminded me to be kind to those we meet. It doesn't cost us anything to smile to others or lend a listening ear. I am very lucky that I was able to get help when I needed it. I would like to think all would be rosey in my life if I hadn't reached out for help but I will be honest. I do not know where I would be or how I would feel if I didn't have someone to listen to me for an hour every week. Give kindess to everyone, we do not always know what is going on in their life, re-ignite old friendships and tell those you love how you feel. Look after eachother, Jon would want you to xxx . #jonhanna #rip #life #love #family #friendship #grief #health #mentalhealth #inmythoughts #death #effect #butterflyeffect #kindness #support #brave #beauty

3 years ago today this little guy became the fourth memeber of our family. The light and joy of my life with his big sister shining down on him. How lucky am I? Alexander is a true joy. Every moment is magical and each word and hug and kiss is what I live for. Happy birthday my darling.

A fresh shippment of Greek lemons now safely in my kitchen. . They are not the prettiest of lemons but boy oh boy do they taste fantastic. My dad arrived from Greece yesterday where he grows these lemons among other fruits in his Corfiot garden. They are by far the best lemons I have ever tasted. I can't wait to get cooking with them. . Any suggestions of what you would like to see made with them? Maybe a lemon and poppyseed bundt cake? Or perhaps something savoury? Let me know in the comments and I will see what I can do. . . #lemons #greekfood #gardening #fresh #citrus #fruit #corfu #homegrown #natural #healthy #healthyliving #life #whenlifegivesyoulemons #inmykitchen #onmytable #nourish #organic #spring #organicfood #food #eatclean #lemon #lemontree #inmygarden

If you hate waste and love meal prep then these are right up your alley. They take no time at all and use up leftovers and provide an instant pick me up to any dish. . My frozen herbed oils are so easy and just waiting for you to try. I love throwing one or two in a pot with fresh spaghetti and a grating of parmesan, the easiest of mid week meals for busy people! .
