Wow – this is the last month of maternity leave. How quickly did that time go? I’ll be back at work at the start of Term 2 (so end of April, but April nevertheless). I’ve enjoyed being home with the boys and having more time in the kitchen.
I think I’ll just have to be even more organised when it comes to weeknight dinner and lunchbox packing as the year progresses. I’ve seen some people packing whole week’s worth of lunchboxes on a Sunday night – but I just don’t know how they have fridge space for it all?
I’m also looking into more meal delivery and grocery delivery options. I love Marley Spoon. But I obviously can’t get everything I need from them.
And, as always, if you are interested in seeing what other lovely bloggers have in their kitchen this month, then head over to Sherry Mackay, from Sherry’s Pickings .

I’ve been following Stacey Clare on Instagram. And I’m really into improving our gut health through fermentation. I did her 3 day quick course – which she ran for FREE. And now I really want to sign up for her paid course.
The boys have been smashing her orange juice and kombucha gummies and we have even tried a few combinations of our own! I used these cute silicon ice cube trays to make mine. The boys love these ‘giant’ stars which are much bigger than the ones we make in silicon chocolate molds.

I’m making the most of the last of the ‘summer’ tomatoes. I’m trying to eat more seasonally – and so we will be embracing the Autumnal veggies as they come into season. Think; artichokes, Asian greens, avocado, beans, beetroot, broccoli, and brussels sprouts .

I have Marley Spoon. I am thinking about trialing some other lunch options. I enjoyed YouFoodz but think I might give these bodybuilding and gym meals a go. I don’t necessarily want to loose weight, but the maintaining meals look pretty good. Just think ‘clean eating’ which is what we should all be aiming for anyway.

We will be having this delicious Bilpin honey in our tea and on our toast. We drove out to Bilpin and picked apples a couple of days ago. It was a really fun experience and one that I would recommend.
We took a #emptyesky and brought home eight kilos of apples (Red Delicious, Fuji and Kanzi) and honey and a couple of delicious apple pies (well actually they were consumed in the car on the way home).

We I just had to share these cute little cheese knives that my sister gave me for my birthday.

I’ve been reducing the amount of plastic I bring into the house. Here is one of my little hacks for veggies that might need a plastic bag, look for paper. I’ve been bring home my green beans in paper bags instead of plastic.
So tell me, what is in your kitchen this month? Are you busy packing lunchboxes? Have you tried kombucha, tepache or switchel? Are you interested in increasing your gut health? Do you have a brilliant kitchen hack for me to try? Have you been able to get your hands on toilet paper?
