In the beginning

We are a family of 4 who live in the North East of Scotland.  A former army family with 8 house moves in 21 years under our belts. 

There is Dad, Mum (ooh that's me), our eldest at 19 who suffers from eczema, and our youngest at 13 and the allergic one - not forgetting the hound - our collie Sprockitt.

Our youngest is allergic to Dairy, egg, dust, pollen, cats and sadly now peanuts.  It doesn't stop him though as he does field hockey for our local team and Air Cadets too.  Nothing holds him back.

He was diagnosed at 6 months old after failing to thrive for 4 months - life changed from that moment on. I was exclusively BF so had to cut out dairy, egg and soya from my diet immediately too.  We saw a difference immediately though it took months for him to hit developmental goals he got there. 

I've learnt to adapt cooking, baking and every day life - you just have to - it's life or death. 

We all enjoy dabbling in the kitchen, though I'll never bake as pretty Bake Off standard - they do taste good.

This blog will not only share my recipes and creations but also look at my personal diet and walking goals.
