Recently, I was very kindly treated to the new Simply Italian, Simply Gluten Free recipe book by Anna Del Conte and Michelle Berriedale-Johnson and was so excited to get stuck in! I’d say I’m quite well versed when it comes to the stereotypical Italian food- pizza and pasta- however this book opened me up a […]

How I deal with IBS
I’ve always had issues with my tummy feeling unsettled and uncomfortable but it was after I noticed more bloating than normal that I went to see my doctor about it and I was diagnosed with IBS in 2012. For the first couple of years, I was very much left to my own devices apart from […]
Thermomix – Life changing or just too expensive?
I have known about Thermomix for a number of years as my in-laws have had one for a while (it’s a big deal in Germany!) and they absolutely love it. I do enjoy cooking (obviously..) and at first, I thought that the Thermomix was only really for people who were unsure of their way around […]

The Allergy & Free From Show – Glasgow 2020
The Allergy Show weekend is always one of my yearly highlights! Especially when it comes to Glasgow 🙂 I’ve been going to the Allergy Shows in Glasgow and London for about 4 years now and love it every time. This year was a special one for me though as they very kindly asked if I’d […]
Sweeteners – not so sweet?
I don’t think I’ve always had an issue with sweeteners, it seemed to come to the surface when I was on the elimination phase of the low FODMAP diet. My tummy was happier than it had been in a long time as I was avoiding lots of hard-to-digest foods and drinks until one day I […]
The Allergy & Free From Show – London 2019
The London Allergy Show is one of my favourite times of the year! I’m a huge fan of the Glasgow show too but London is another level! This time, I decided to give myself a bit of breathing space and made my way down to the capital for 2 days (instead of my usual 1). […]

Free From Food Awards 2019
This year, I had the pleasure of helping to judge for the Free From Food Awards 2019. I’ve been gluten free and living on a modified low FODMAP diet for just over 3 years and even in that time, the difference in the range of free from products is absolutely incredible so it’s such an […]
The Allergy & Free From Show – Glasgow 2019
One of my highlights of the year is always the Allergy & Free From Show. Unfortunately, due to the crazy snow we had last year, the 2018 show in Glasgow was cancelled so I think I speak for pretty much the whole of Scotland when I say we were more than ready for this one! […]
