While I try as much as possible to provide and mak While I try as much as possible to provide and make fresh food for my family, sometimes it's handy to have some packaged food on hand for snacks for when I haven't had time to cook or bake or get to the shops. Which seems to be a lot lately! And well, all foods can be part of a healthy diet at the end of the day. You guys know I will always seek out the healthiest options I can find if I'm going the packaged route, like these 'Keep it Cleaner' Veggie Tortilla Chips which are soooo tasty and dangerously more-ish, and only have 4-5 recognisable ingredients! Their salsa is the bomb too! The chips and salsa are gluten free and currently on sale at Woolies, so I stocked up a bit because at $4 a bag they ain't cheap! You're welcome 🙃 . . . . . #tortillachips #mexican #glutenfree #healthysnack #healthysnacksforkids #healthyswap #healthysupermarket #healthyoption #healthyswaps #groceryshopping #healthyfood #simpleswap #supermarketswap #healthylunchbox #lunchboxideas #schoollunchbox #schoollunchideas #lunchboxideasforkids #snackideas #healthysnacking #healthysnackideas #salsa #glutenfreetortillachips #grainfreetortillachips #healthytortillachips #nachos
My son was sick with a cold last week and couldn't My son was sick with a cold last week and couldn't really afford to be and so he asked if we could throw everything at it so he could heal quickly. When I was adding ferments to his salad he asked if ferments help with a cold too. Well I was so glad he asked because probiotic bacteria make up 80% of our immune systems which means fermented foods are INSANE to protect us from common colds or to heal us more quickly if we do get sick. Because fermented foods are rich in Vitamin C, iron and zinc, this helps our immune system be stronger too.

It’s this time of the year again. The days start It’s this time of the year again. The days start to get shorter and the mornings and nights colder. I'm already snuggling under a big, soft blanket on the lounge at night. And I'm craving comforting, grounding porridge again so it's time to give my luscious, decadent yet healthy chocolate porridge another whirl.

ORGANISATION I need my life to feel in order in o ORGANISATION I need my life to feel in order in order to feel calm and settled. Anyone else like this? Which meant I couldn't wait for the doors of my newly installed wardrobe to arrive before moving on in! . I've spent the last three days washing, hanging and organising the whole family's new wardrobes which has been a massive job, but the biggest relief given we've all been operating on minimal wardrobes while we rented, and even since we moved back in December. Felt much like living out of a suitcase. Can you tell I'm excited! . I need your help though. I have a pull out tray for my jewellery and sunglasses (swipe right) but the jewellery inserts from IKEA don't fit and I've been looking online but having trouble finding anything that's 3.5cm high. Would love to hear your suggestions! The whole drawer is 86cm wide, 46 long and 3.5cm high . . . . . #calm #clean #organsied #homeorganisation #declutter #mariekondo #mykonmarie #choosejoy #organisedlife #organisedmum #storageideas #storagesolutions #storagehacks #storagegoals #storageporn #organisationtips #cleaningtips #cleaningmotivation #cleaningmode #myinterior #jewellery #jewelleryorganisation #jewellerycollection #jewellerycollection #konmarie #bedroomdecor #home #homedecor #wardrobes #homerenovation
