Dairy free life – Halloween pumpkin seed brittle

dairy free pumpkin seed brittle

Tweet

This is the perfect thing to combine with a bit of pumpkin carving – you’ll have to get the seeds out of the pumpkin anyway and if you then wash and dry them they make a really tasty sugary Halloween treat to nibble on whilst trying to work out how to get the eyes [...]

Dairy free life – 6 months later

Littler eating breakfast

Tweet

I can’t believe it has been 6 months since we were told that Littler had grown out of the worst aspects of her milk protein allergy (by worst aspects I mean the not being able to breathe, screaming agony and red raw skin aspects) and that we could start on a home challenge programme.

Dairy free life – hot cross buns

Hot cross buns, hot cross buns, one a penny, two a penny, hot cross buns!

 

We love hot cross buns – from toasted ones in bed on Good Friday morning (another of those nutty traditions) to warm fresh out of the oven.

 

These do sound complicated and time consuming but the majority [...]

Bigger has just had a birthday – this year I was determined that I would not be cooking fairy cakes at 11pm the night before and so started making things a little bit in advance.

 

You know these – they bring back memories of childhood parties.

 

A special twist is a sprinkling [...]

Dairy free life – flapjacks

diary free flapjacks

Tweet

I love a flapjack – all gooey and chewy and still sort of good for you.

 

They are also perfect to give to new Mums – a quick burst of sugar-y energy and the slow release energy of the oats and the oats are also good for milk supply.  And they’re easy to [...]

Dairy free life – chocolate marble cake

Cake – who doesn’t love it.  And a cake you can throw together in a few minutes and that looks like good has to be a winer.

 

It does keep well – that is if you can stop everyone eating it…

Dairy free life – stained glass Christmas biscuits

Dairy Free Stained Glass Christmas Biscuits

Tweet

We’re on a bit of an economy drive this Christmas (to be honest, who isn’t?) and so the girls are making presents for people.  Not only does it give us something nice to do together but hopefully people appreciate the effort and something a bit personal.  At least I’m hoping they do.  Either way, [...]

Dairy free life – Christmas cookie jars

christmas cookie jars

Tweet

I stumbled over this wonderful idea for Christmas presents from Domestic Goddesque – cookie mix in a jar ready to go.

It seemed to me to be the perfect mix of a fairly frugal gift, something practical to do with children and not another bit of plastic that probably wouldn’t survive until New Years.

Dairy free life – testing, testing!

Littler with her first nutella

Tweet

There are times when I wonder if Littler is pure, unadulterated trouble is a two foot high vehicle.  She just seems to be able to create a degree of trouble that her bigger sister has never even considered let alone put into execution.

It turns out that Littler, in true Littler style, decided to be [...]
