The topic for day number 4 of BEDN is ‘Food Glorious Food’, and that’s something I’m pretty good at, considering I eat a lot of food. So I thought I’d bring you the recipe I mentioned yesterday: jammy rock cakes! We were just sat watching TV in the afternoon yesterday (/today – I’m scheduling this!) and Ben asked if I’d ever heard of rock cakes. Well, of course I had, but I’d never made them. He’d been thinking about how his aunty Cath had used to them for him with a little blob of jam on top when he was younger and how he wanted some again. So we looked up a recipe, realised they were super easy and that we had all the ingredients, so decided to make some. They literally took about 5 minutes to make and 15 to bake. Basically they’re just a quick version of ready made scones! So here’s the recipe.

Jammy Rock Cakes

This is a very easy introduction to baking that's difficult to make a mess of! These jammy rock cakes are inspired by Ben's Aunty Cath - a proper old-fashioned and traditional British recipe.

I accidentally fell into the world of Scandi kids I accidentally fell into the world of Scandi kids clothing a little while ago, and last week, I decided to grab some bits in my first DUNS drop - eek! @dunssweden has wonderful, uplifting and unique designs that are not only GOTS Certified but are also unisex and even have clothes that are now known as “Mama Duns” – matching pieces for mums (and sometimes dads!). Emmy and I managed to snag matching Purple Meadow Baggy Pants and we're in love! Head over to the blog (link in bio) to read more about my journey into Scandi clothing and how I grabbed this pair of baggy pants (yes, they might be a size 134/140!). #organic #fashrev #dunssweden #schwedischen #scandinavian #shopdunssweden #morethanafling @shopdunssweden #organickidswear #kidsfashion #sustainablefashion #sustainable #gots #byttilleko #inspiration #ecokids #goorganic #unisexfashion #swedish #summer2020 #colorful #happykids #organickidsfashion #emiliajane #emmyjane #themodernmotherhood
[Ad] Hey Instagram, it's been a while! We all know [Ad] Hey Instagram, it's been a while! We all know things have been going on in the world, but in addition to that, I went back to work and also have a baby turning toddler - that really pushes the limits of how much social media I can manage!

But today I'm back with a post all about baby led weaning. Over on the blog (link in bio) I've shared 50+ tried and tested baby led weaning meal ideas that Emmy loves (this girl LOVES her food!). We were super lucky to be gifted some @littlefreddieuk pouches to try recently, and this Grass Fed Beef Lasagne with a pinch of parmesan pouch has been a big winner over here. Available at Sainsburys, organic ingredients and a commitment to real food and sustainability, what else could you want from baby food? We were really impressed at how this little pouch packs a punch nutritionally and with flavour too - we may have snuck a couple of tastes too!

Check out how we incorporated this pouch into a meal for Emmy over at the blog along with a lot more meal ideas for 1 year olds, as well as a link to the Little Freddie coupon page where you can claim your own coupons.

Remember last year when I visited our local pumpki Remember last year when I visited our local pumpkin patch with a teeny bump? This year we went back with a much bigger "pumpkin" in tow! Emmy's first time pumpkin picking was a huge success and I can't wait to make this a tradition year after year. She looks like she's going to be a Halloweeny kind of girl!

Words can't even describe the experience of the pa Words can't even describe the experience of the past 2 days! Yesterday Emmy went to her first ever play, and I'm so so proud that it was the wonderful work of @charley_smiles90 with There Are No Beginnings at @leedsplayhouse. 
Since it was a mother and baby performance yesterday, I actually went back again today with Ben this time (while Emmy chilled with Charley and Frankie) to experience it all over again and I can't even tell you how incredible it was, both times!
I'll have a full review on the blog soon but in short, this was the most powerful and passionate performance full of strong women. And even though I've seen it twice in two days, I wouldn't hesitate to see it again.

Over on the blog today, we're sharing a big milest Over on the blog today, we're sharing a big milestone - Emmy's first pair of autumn boots! These gorgeously soft and cozy sheepskin baby booties are by my new client, @jacobsanddalton, who are soon to be launching their site where you'll be able to get your hands on these too, but head over to the blog to see our full review and some fabulously fall inspired photos amongst the autumn leaves!
