I am asked the same questions a lot so I thought it would be a good idea to have a list of resources where I can guide you to other wonderful blogs, websites, books, articles and other resources that answer those questions far better than I ever could. See below for a list of some of my favourite resources, and also for articles and blogposts that answer perfectly the questions I hear the most as an advocate for a fat positive, non-diet approach to life. Happy reading!
Read MoreSo now at the age of 37 I’m in Club Grey and I’m delighted about, I mean I genuinely really love my natural hair now, people tell me I’m lucky because I have “nice” grey hair.

Read MoreLove or hate anchovies, there’s no denying they pack a flavour punch. I like to add them to lots of different dishes, for example; eggs fried in anchovy butter, simply mash the anchovies into some butter and fry the eggs in it, are a favourite in our house.

Read MoreWe adore chicken traybakes in this house, they’re so quick, simple and delicious. I love trying different combinations of flavours too but this summery one is probably our favourite at the moment. It sort of self sauces and creates its own delicious gravy too, so good!
Read MoreI know baby buys are very personal and subjective but I thought I’d lay out what our best and favourite purchases for baby number two are so far, I mean, who doesn’t enjoy a good list or appreciate a decent product recommendation?! It's what the internet is for!
Read MoreThis recipe is quick, super tasty, but what makes it really special is, it's so basic you can get your kid to help make it with minimal intervention (although, if you're like me, your version of minimal intervention is standing right over them, vice grip on their tiny hand going "why. don't. we. do. it. together. darling" through pretend smily gritted teeth knowing you will fucking lose the plot if one single glob of oaty goo goes on your kitchen tiles).
Read MorePregnancy is hard enough without the added pressure of thrice daily finger prick tests, a very strict diet and exercise regime and weekly calls to the GD clinic where, in my hospital, you run the gauntlet of either the lovely kind Miss Honey midwife or the mean judgy Miss Trunchbull midwife answering your call.
