Holidays...

Sorry for my lack of posts lately, the weeks seem to b flying past me at the moment. I am gearing up getting ready to go on holidays in 2 weeks. Traveling with DJ is not the easiest thing to do in the world, as he likes his routine and his diet is so restricted I have to make sure I bring all his gluten and wheat free snacks ect with me. I am not sure they know what gluten and wheat free diet is on the continent. So I am signing off for the summer and I will see you in September.

Have a wonderful Summer all

A Weekend in the country

My self and DJ are heading off for the weekend down to the country to visit my grandmother. Its the first weekend of the Olympics and probably a really good time to get out of London for some R&R. Ok maybe not so much the R&R with a toddler running around and lots of precious things lying around, but it will be nice to go out to the country air for some country walks with my little man.
Also will be nice to not cook for the weekend.
 Hope you have a lovely weekend

Summer...finally

This week the weather has been wonderful, we have spent many hours under the shade looking at trees, playing in the paddling pool and have ice creams. I just love waking up and the sun being out, makes getting out of bed so much easier..
Hope you are all having a wonderful week

Michael Kors Fall 2012

If you have read some of my fashion posts, you will already know I am slightly obsessed with Michael Kors. I love his clothes and I love his campaigns. His fall 2012 line has not let me down, he has added the glamour with a bit of old school Hollywood. My two favorite things, what's not to love.

Gluten free diet for kids

A lot of people say to me " that sounds like a lot of hard work" when I tell them that DJ is on a gluten and wheat free diet. At first I thought it was going to be hard, as you do have to look at ingredients in everything. I honestly could not live without the The Free From range at Sainsburys (also stocked in Tescos and some Asdas) They have a great selection of fish fingers, chicken nuggets, pies,pasta, breads, pizza, and all condiments and goodies. They are a little more expensive but its a price I am willing to pay to help DJ. I have seen such a huge difference in him since taking him off wheat and gluten and cows milk.
Going out and about can be a challenge, so you just have to make sure you are prepared. Pom Bears are gluten free and have no preservatives and there only a pound for 6 packs in Asda.

One thing the gluten and wheat free section are not great on is cookies and cakes, you can get some good cakes and cookie mixes from the free from range which i would suggest. I also came across these yummy chocolate chip cookies by lazy days which is by far the best out there. They also do different types as well.

I have the whole family on gluten and wheat free now as its just easier. There is gluten in a lot of products though so make sure you do look at the packaging. For example soya sauce and stock cubes contain gluten so make sure you get some without.

Monday Morning Madness...

 Good Morning all, I am not going to go on about the lack of sun in England this year, its just getting depressing. I had bought some lovely out fits and I wont be able to wear any of them until I go away to Portugal in September. Until then I am just going to have to stare at them in the wardrobe ..


Have  a wonderful Monday
