One last autumnal snap because BRRR, today is definitely winter - I am wearing approximately 12 layers and they are still not enough! I loved those crisp, sunny, golden days...but now I can stop hiding my Christmas music & year-round cinnamon addictions so it’s all good. PS: hands up all the parents who go way beyond 10k steps per day to get their babies to nap a half-decent amount 💁‍♀️

Such a fun day with my best girls (@paulinewilson not pictured) and best boy. I recommend having your birthday on a Monday!

Pic somewhat unrelated but I loved this sunlit Nana-grandson moment. We celebrated my wonderful niece today (props to anyone who can spot her sparkly legs in this picture!) After becoming a mum, becoming an aunt to this little joy-bringer has been my favourite part of the last year. 🖤

I’ve been having lots of foiling fun this week! Just wanted to say thank you for supporting @brownpaperpackagesni. Especially this time of year. When you choose to buy original work from a small independent business, you choose to support real people with real dreams to chase and real bills to pay. Buying small also mean you can be sure the goods you buy are ethically produced and high quality is guaranteed - someone’s heart & soul has gone into them. Everyone wins! 👊 Head on over to @brownpaperpackagesni for original hand-lettered Christmas gifts. These new guys are some of my faves!

Seriously. How talented is @macrame_and_me aka my sister?! This is her best yet. Early motherhood doesn’t need to mean a halt to creativity. Find what works for you. Making something - anything - just for fun can be the best therapy. 🖤

Oh, these sunny autumn days are my favourite! We picked up some gorgeous flowers this morning before going hunting for pinecones in the woods, and then headed home to make this delicious honey & black pepper plum tart. It’s my go-to recipe in the autumn...so simple and always delicious. The pepper adds an incredible kick that makes the sweetness of the honey work super nicely with the tartness of the plums. There’s a step-by-step in my stories, or you can follow the recipe here: Heat oven at 180 degrees. Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper and roll out the shortcrust pastry onto it. Cut 600g of plums into wedges and arrange them as you will on top of the pastry. Generously drizzle the plums with Rowse Organic honey, and sprinkle with black pepper. Bake for 20 minutes or until plums are caramelising. Once out of the oven, add a little more honey and enjoy! #ad #RowseHoney @rowsehoneyuk

My sister has always been super creative, and she’s recently taken on the very cool art of macramé. I love it 😍 I stayed over at the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed my surroundings - just look at these guys! Go follow her at @macrame_and_me.

Brunch in a shipping container is where it’s at. We visited @freight_belfast at the weekend - so good! Really fresh decor, super friendly staff and a delicious menu. I’m still dreaming about the French toast.

Happy birthday to our favourite ❤️ Every day we get to be in his gang is a good day. Here’s to the next 365!
