How do you pack your child's lunch? Or even your own? Do you consider the packaging? For many, I am guessing you may have a sandwich, along with some fruit and some packaged items. For others, it may be a case of grabbing what you can get on the go, but these options are not always eco-friendly or even healthy. Your first priority is to make it a healthy meal, but sometimes this seems too hard. There is all the shopping, the prepping, not to mention what to carry the lunch i

BECOME PART OF PLASTIC FREE JULY – TIP #4

Who doesn’t like having a coffee or a hot brew in the morning? Many of us use the convenience of buying our drinks from a café or bistro, however with these hot drinks (and many cold drinks) comes single use disposable cups. If you thought that these single use cups are recyclable, you are wrong. Many are lined with a plastic and some claim to be biodegradable, but many are not, which means they don't compots fully and the plastic film breaks down into microparticles. Polluti

GUILT FREE CHOCOLATE CAKE

Okay, it is the weekend and if you are a chocolate lover like me there is no better way to treat yourself than with a chocolate cake.

Some time ago I looked for a recipe that is not only scrumptious, but also not half bad for you and I found this recipe, where I have made a few changes (coconut flou

Hello everyone, Hope your week has been good to you. I know many of you have taken up the Plastic Free Challenge in July. How is it going? Have you learned a few things about your lifestyle? I know when we starting reducing the amount of plastic in our lives, we found it amazing how very hard it was to stop using plastic as it is so prevalent everywhere. It has become so much a part of how we live as a society, that we find it hard to break the habit. I know it is not easy,
