My youngest daughter, Amalie, who is now three, was diagnosed with coeliac disease at six months old. Well, the consultant is fairly certain that she has it, but she was too poorly for us to give her gluten for more than two weeks so her blood test came back negative. I wrote a couple of […]
Oh my goodness, how things have improved for coeliacs eating out over the past six years. It used to be hell, and to be honest, I avoided it most of the time or just settled for a plain baked potato. They were my hangry years, for sure. Now, restaurants are clocking on to the power […]
Kay wrote a blog earlier this week about her coeliac diagnosis and how she was taken seriously by her doctor straight away. It is very odd as Kay and I have been best mates for years and I had stomach problems for all that time too. She kept telling me to go and get tested […]
Ten years ago, when I’d ask for something gluten free, I’d as well have ordered a plate of moon cheese. Even in London, hardly anyone knew what ‘coeliac’ was – hell, when the doctor told me I hadn’t a clue. He jotted down the Coeliac UK website on a sticky note and sent me on […]
For Coeliac Awareness Week 2018 I thought I’d let you know about some of my favourite gluten-free finds and I’m kicking it off with gluten-free bread. I can’t say I never come across it, but the dry cardboardy gluten-free bread is starting to be more of a rarity and there are some truly fabulous products […]

I’ve been diagnosed with coeliac disease and lactose intolerance for nearly six years and my little girls are also coeliac. So I’d say we’re a pretty clued-up family now. There are still a few things we need to sort out though because cross-contamination is so bloody difficult to manage. We have to be so careful […]
Number 1 Kinnerton Just Chocolate Dark Chocolate Egg This is my favourite Easter egg by far and is free-from dairy, egg, wheat, gluten, peanuts and tree nuts. It is also vegan-friendly. I was never a fan of dark chocolate before I found out I had coeliac disease and lactose intolerance, but this chocolate has a […]
Whilst perusing the FreeFrom aisle at my local supermarket, I was delighted to discover Helen’s gluten-free bread mix, and what made me even more excited was the fact it was reduced to £1. How could I pass this bargain by? Not only would this give me the chance to bake my own bread, but also […]
You wake up and have the worst headache you have ever experienced. You’re stuck in bed for ages, but when you finally make it downstairs and start frantically searching through your medicine box… disaster! You can’t find a single strong painkiller you can have. If you’re anything like me, your medicine box is quite disorganised […]
My six-year-old daughter, Megan, recently decided she wanted to do baking as her chosen activity at after school club. Which is easier said than done. Having coeliac disease means this activity is NOT a piece of cake. So I had to write a letter to the school teacher to check if it was even possible. […]
Pudding on a brave face for the FFFA 2018 I landed a dream job last week. I was asked to judge the FreeFrom Food Awards and even better – I landed the puddings and desserts category. The FreeFrom Food Awards have been around for 10 years and the yellow awards logo is sought after by […]
