This Christmas, I am making a big effort to shop local and shop small in order to support the businesses that have suffered through 2020. This will not only help these small businesses, but it means that we can buy some gorgeously unique and thoughtful gifts!
As a way of encouragement, each of these businesses is offering a discount to each of my followers! Click on the name of each business to shop their store!

We would laugh it off and make our excuses, “Maybe next year!”, “I’m just focusing on my career this year!”, “We have a lot on this year, so maybe next!”, but each time we were asked it felt like a gut-wrenching stab to the stomach.
Do we want children? Desperately. Was it that easy for us? No.
It really is easy for most people, but for us we were the 1 in 7 couples that have had difficulty conceiving. So the instant pregnancy we had planned didn’t happen and we didn’t know who to turn to and all because fertility isn’t talked about.

I have teamed up with Forest Feast, a leading and local healthy snack brand based in Co. Armagh, to sample their extensive range of dried fruit and nut products. I have personally been trying to add more nuts into my diet because research has shown that eating nuts during pregnancy gives a reduced child allergy risk.
Forest Feast have introduced their “Halloween Family Fun” range - you can’t miss the brightly coloured packaging on supermarket shelves! The range includes everything from traditional peanuts, roasted peanuts and mixed nuts to (my favourite) chocolate covered peanuts, chocolate and yoghurt raisins, Supernatural mixed nuts and frightfully good fruit and nut mixes! All perfect for making little party treats for a ‘spooktacular’ house party, or for stocking up for trick or treaters!
