Anyone with kids is undoubtedly familiar with putting a plate full of nutritious and tasty food in front of their child, only for them to turn their nose up at it. This can be frustrating, but parents also often worry about the eating habits of their offspring. Without a balanced diet, your child won’t get all of the nutrients and vitamins they need to grow and develop. So, if you have noticed that your child is a picky eater, here are some tips to get them eating.

Let’s Talk About The Afternoon Tea
Do you remember when you were a child, and your mum or your grandparents would plan an afternoon out, and they would take you to the tea shop? Cream teas with sweet jam and thick clotted cream were the best Sunday snack! If you were going out for a posh brunch, nothing would replace the excitement of the lovely tiered plates covered in cakes and sandwiches. But then you grew up, and suddenly you came to realise that afternoon teas suck a little.
Prestige Hampers Christmas Fireside basket | Review
A hamper is one of my favourite gifts to give at Christmastime. Whether to say thank you, Merry Christmas, or just to treat a special someone to lots of delicious treats in one box. Prior to having the boys I made the effort to make my own treats for my own foodie hampers and they went down a storm. Since then, I barely get time to bake goodies for myself, never mind anyone else! So a pre-made hamper with ready to go items is a good place to start. Prestige Hampers can do just the job for you.
Passionfruit and mascarpone roulade | Recipe
Other than week one, I have joined in every single week of the Bake Off so far – it’s a miracle! Even though both kids are now at school full time, I still don’t manage to get around to doing my bake until a weekend. I must remedy that though, as it’s so hard to photograph with them around. “Please Mummy, can I have some now?”. NO! I haven’t finished yet… Anyway, for dessert week, I thought I would have a go at a roulade.
Sticky cinnamon and walnut breakfast buns | Recipe
Once again, I’m late to the GBBOBloggers2018 party. I only decided on what I was going to make last Friday, and actually made and photographed on Saturday morning before heading to Blog On Toys for the weekend! Bread week is usually one of my nemesis’, and because I didn’t have much time, I just decided to use a recipe from one of my books. (Which I should actually use more often – does anyone else have a mountain of them and never use them?)
