NOT Breastfeeding at Playgroup
There has been a lot of debate in the press lately about breast feeding or not. Extremists will always get their views into the media, and it is important, in my opinion, that they do. They give us an opportunity to ask ourselves what we think about the issue.
Breast feeding has been something I can do. Very little drama and a lot of success. I am grateful that my children have been able to benefit from the intimacy of breast feeding and the health benefits. Still, there are many other beautiful mother-child relationships for those who bottle fed, what's more their children are also healthy.
I have always advocated to other mummy friends that you do what ever is best for a happy mum and happy baby. At the point when the decision is being made, or is made that bottle feeding must begin I hear my self consoling friends with "It's ok" and "We can do our best, then we are allowed to bottle feed if we need too".
While I can breast feed I am not quite able to breast feed for as long as some Mums. At our Steiner playgroup I am always amazed by mothers breast feeding two, three and four year old children. All mothers have their reasons for breast feeding - for what ever duration, or bottle feeding and hopefully the reason encompasses happiness.
So I can say this and share this - but now I am living it with my second daughter I am struggling!! E is six months old. From four months she has shown strong signs of wanting food. She has been breast fed on demand - unlike my eldest daughter. She is now on three meals a day and loves her milk and food. She is happy.
I am less happy, I am tired too. Consequently, we are almost one week into one bottle of formula a day. She takes the bottle enthusiastically, unlike her sister! She devours her milk. She has three teeth, so its nice that the teat gets a hard time instead of me! Yet I feel a sense of guilt.
When I pulled out the bottle at our beloved play group I felt like a failure. I have not seen one bottle fed baby there before. E did not mind one bit. Actually, I bet nobody minded. Just me!! Our play group community are so accepting, and yet I felt guilt. So silly!
So why have I started to drop breast feeding? Let me remind my self.
E is ready for more. I am exhausted. Hormone fluctuations are making me a little crazy. Patience is disappearing. Oh, and here is a wee sketch of what my vivacious eldest daughter got up to today at play group...
That is her a top an eight foot fence. No one else at play group had the vision to see how to climb the fence. Kaea does! And did so twice today!! The fence neatly separates play group from kindergarten. Kaea has watched little people playing through the cracks in the fence. She has wondered through their green kindergarten pastures, past the fountain, rocky edged sandpit, meandering paths to the lush vege garden to feed the chickens. She has experienced a small sense of loss realising that her friends who once played with her at play group, are now on the other side of the fence.
At almost two and a half she told me she can go to kindy now. She has been told that when she is three, and can successfully use the toilet she may go to kindy. Well she can use the toilet and she is three next birthday so I can see why she must be there NOW. The kindergarten co-ordinator who rescued her from eight feet up (whilst I tried with baby in arm) a little shocked to learn that she was not three for another five months asked me if I thought she would be ready to attend without Mum. My response, rather sadly was yes.
I am not digressing from the point of this post. Promise. Kaea is an exuberant, independent learner, who cannot get enough of the world. I tire from keeping up with or just behind her from a little distance. She needs my energy as does E. So to keep up with them both and keep my self going forward I feel that a combination of breast and bottle from now on is the key.
Hopefully we can regain a happy mum, and maintain happy baby and toddler.

Homemade Butter and Quick and Easy Bread
There was quite a bit of cream left over from our pavlova making adventure and usually it ends up going off in our fridge. Fortunately I had just received my copy of Wendyl Nissen's "Mother's Little Helper" and I was inspired to make butter. Such a great scientific change effect for Kaea to see, especially since it involved butter her most favourite spread. Sometimes she even has a small piece of toast with her butter!
We chose Wendyl's suggested method of beating the cream with a little salt to the point of butter with its whey or butter milk separation. Then squeezed the butter milk from the solids, drained off the liquid and continued to squeeze under a tap of running cold water. Hey presto - butter, real butter!!
Of course you cannot have such a high quality butter without bread. Kaea and I used to make bread often, but have had a lapse with my second pregnancy and arrival of E. As much as I love kneading and proving, E is not yet three months old and I feel like I don't quite have the time or energy for proper bread making.
Annabel Langbein has a very, very easy bread recipe. No kneading required, simple list of ingredients, and the proving is done in the oven.
We loaded our bread dough with sunflower, pumpkin and sesame seeds. It is delish and reminds me of vogels bread.
We gave it at least ten minutes out of the oven before slicing and lathering in our homemade butter. Yum.
Another fantastic way for the kids to make butter is with a glass jar and a marble. With marble (sterilised) in jar, add cream and salt if you'd like (it helps with taste and preservation) and shake, shake, shake. A good work out and lots of fun.
Here is Annabel's Easy Bread recipe sourced with thanks from "So, So Simple Food"
4 teaspoons honey
2 cups very hot water
2 cups cold water
7 teaspoons yeast
2 3/4 cups whole meal flour
2 3/4 cups strong white flour
3 teaspoons salt
2 cups sunflower seeds
Handful of pumpkin or sunflower seeds to topping (Optional)
Into a bowl add the honey and the hot water. Dissolve the honey and add the cold water.
This should now be hand hot water, perfect for yeast to work. If it is a bit hot, let it cool a little.
Sprinkle yeast on top and let it bloom.
Set aside 5 minutes
In another bowl place the flours and the salt and the sunflower seeds.
Add yeast and water.
Mix and pour into 2 greased loaf tins.
Sprinkle top with Pumpkin or Sunflower seeds if you choose too, I didn't.
Snip top of loaves with scissors or slash with a knife. I missed this bit.
Into 80C oven for 20 minutes to help rising
Then turn up to 210C and cook a further 30 minutes or more until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.

All Blacks and the Little Blue Duck
"The little blue duck with a passion to cook, was busily searching her recipe book. I'll make a pavlova that beaut kiwi treat, lighter than air and perfectly sweet"
These words are read often in our home at bed time from the story "The Little Blue Duck". To Kaea I guess the pav has been a mystery and a promise that one day we would make one.
And so we finally made one as a contribution to our Kiwi Dinner to celebrate the World Cup Rugby Final.
For every game the All Blacks played we dined on the delights of the "other" team. From savoury crepes, and fruit tarts, to turkey sandwiches, pecan pie and pancakes, to takeaways (we had those when we played Tonga!).
Kaea was in charge of the eggs. "We whipped and we beat till the white of the eggs were perfectly peaked". The funniest part of our pav making was when Kaea asked to go and find a cow to milk so we could make the cream. We explained that we would go to the supermarket for cream.... to which she replied "To find a cow".
The outcome of our pav was somewhat like the game really..... a bit touch and go but overall pretty sweet!

| We beat the egg whites and sugar for 10 minutes as suggested by a few Pavlova websites. |
 |
| We also built walls up around the outside to stop the flat Pav thing from happening. |

A mouse took a stroll through the deep dark wood...
We celebrated our daughters second birthday during the weekend. One of her favourite books is the “Gruffalo” so we celebrated to this theme.
KB wears her home made ears and tail - she was of course the mouse! Her cousin proudly wore his home made Gruffalo costume. My sister is very clever!!
KB’s most favourite sweets are marshmallows, so requested a chocolate and marshmallow birthday cake. This became a chocolate swiss roll filled with home made marshmallow, covered in chocolate and decorated as a log from the deep, dark wood. I managed to craft a wee (well actually he is quite tubby) fondant mouse - eating the nut.
We also had scrambled snake (scrambled egg with sushi roll), owl icecream, roasted fox (chicken) sandwiches and Gruffalo crumble.
The crumble was a home made apple crumble with boysenberries for his purple prickles, green grapes for his poisonous wart, his orange eyes were apricots and his black tongue was licorice erupting from the crumble. It was delicious!!
The table setting was the woodland scene complete with edible toadstools and leaves.
I now get to look forward to my nephews birthday and working with my sister on creating something fun for him!!!
Happy Birthday my Little Mouse x

Banana Choc chip Muffins and a Delissimo Cake!
Delissimon's Double Chocolate Mocha cake was today's inspiration for baking. Perfect for a friends birthday and just the right type of baking for a wet and windy morning. This will be served with a dollop of cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
You can find Monica's deliciously easy recipe here.
The tissue paper flower is a decoration I slightly modified from this pattern here found on Prudent Baby.
We followed this event with banana choc chip muffins. Recipe courtesy of NZ's Womans Weekly.
This is a great recipe - very sweet. We used less sugar and only a third of the choc chips recommended and they were still very rich.
Then my lovely sister arrived with loads of her 'Breastfeeding Bar' - which I just love, love, love.
Clearly all of the chocolatey baking was enough to set off the terrible twos in our house. I am exhausted from exercising all of my patience and consequence today!!
Hope you all have a lovely weekend and get the chance to make one of these scrumptious recipes x

Lavosh, Good Nosh, and Budget Posh
Have you visited www.pigstitsandparsleysauce.co.nz? The story of a NZ woman who challenged herself to a weekly grocery bill of $100 for her family (dogs included) to save at least $12 000 in a year to invest in a rental property. Long story short she exceeded her savings goal and now writes and shares about how she achieved this. I found it all very exciting. So I am giving it a crack. Will let you know how it goes!
One of Lyn's tips is too shop at Bin Inn (or the like), your local butchery and produce stores. She says avoid supermarkets and if you must go there have a list and stick to it. Well I have been doing that for the last fortnight. Our local Bin Inn type shop is Simplifood in Mount Maunganui. I spent quite a bit of our budget, with most of the cost going toward supplies for Wendyl's cleaning products. I was very excited to see that they stock her range including the liquid soap she recommends - Dr Bronner's castile soap!! Wonderful! My next cleaning product will be the peppermint paste as my bloggy friends are raving about it as a jiff equivalent. My stove stop is hideously dirty so wanted to see if the peppermint paste can work its charm there.
I stayed mostly to our list in the supermarket managing to forget one item - K's corn thins. This inspired me to dig to the back of my pantry and memory banks and create Annabel Lanbein's Lavash. Mmmmmmmm, low in salt, filled with yummy sesame seeds - I am liking this option for K's savoury snacking. It is so easy to make. Takes a while to roll. I love the taste and the rustic, odd shapes. I am looking forward to Dad and K's reviews as they took it too the park for afternoon tea.
On this particular weekend morning I was up before the family and whipped up soup for dinner and some delish home made bread - thanks to the Edmond's Cook book wholemeal bread recipe - we are really feeling like we eat well with the seasonal food focus, homemade goodness and budget attempts.
This week I will use the last of our tomatoes to make more tomato sauce, and try some pear and date chutney from my gorgeous recipe book "Ripe" pictured above. These will hopefully become birthday gifts.

Easter Biscuits and Rupert Rabbit
I love Afghan biscuits - mostly when others make them. Our friend Lee makes the most amazing Afghan's with caramel hidden under the icing! Oh my gosh! These helped me through the first few days of breastfeeding - so delicious.
We have had a wee visitor turn up too. He is a little shy. Rupert the Rabbit is warming to the camera. I will tell you more about him when he relaxes a little!

Tuesday is Bake Day - Hot Cross Bun Practice
We have been refining our ability to make hot cross buns with the goal of eating many delicious home made buns on Good Friday. I just love baking with K - she is so passionate about food.
It can get quite messy - flour on the bench, floor, ladder, face, Mum's poking out tummy!
This weeks recipe is an apricot and currant version, which we soaked a little in water before adding. Last week we used raisins.
There goes the face! I tell K that the dough needs to sleep, because when we sleep we grow, and look at how our dough grew!!
Crossed, baked and glazed. All shiny and sticky. This batch was "painted" with a milk and sugar glaze, last week we "painted" with plum jam and hot water.
Mmmmmm the final product ready to eat. These are amazing. The currants are definitely the go. So fluffy and soft and delectable. Really happy with the glaze too. Shame K is a sleep now and husband is at a meeting.... I wonder how many of the two dozen will be left!

My Monthly Moves Closer to Eco-Living: March
This has been a "back of my mind" project for sometime. Now it's time to be a little more transparent about it. So here goes...my first month of five steps toward eco-living:
1. Homemade Cleaning and Anti-bacterial Products
Inspired by Megan @ Mousehouse and Wendyl the Green Goddess. So far we have made the cleaning spray and antibacterial spray. Enjoying them both.
2. Frege bags
I try to use reusable shopping bags as often as possible. I love my frege bags given to me by my sister. She sells these as a little business. You could also make them if you were super skilled with your sewing machine. Or see this link to make your own grocery tote.
3. Old Tea Towels - New Cleaning Cloths
Now that I am sifting out my shop brought cleaners and very excitedly using my homemade ones I am also trying to cut down on using paper towels for cleaning and using old tea towels. Use, wash, reuse!
4. Hot steam mop
We bought a hot steam mop over summer. Love, love, love it. Steaming hot water to wash our tiles. No product just water. Uses power, but leaves us with a natural clean.
5. Seasonal Harvesting and Sowing
I have started really putting an effort into seasonal produce shopping and I am back into our vege garden. Delish! Loving my weekly inspiration from Lynda Hallinan of NZ Gardener.

Backyard Jungle Harvest
We love our vege garden. However since the news before Xmas of our second treasure on the way the garden has become a jungle. It is amazing to see what has continued to grow in our garden jungle - mostly due to the rich compost our poppa made for us. Which also provided us with a self seeding garden!
Dad and K had a great time digging up treasures from the deep and harvesting ruby jewels from the gangly vines!!
K wasn't convinced about picking the green tomatoes but I assured her they would ripen. Hopefully we can make another batch of "Mummy's Real Tomatoe Sauce".

Oat Dear it's Autumn!
Autumn brings many gorgeous seasonal changes. Sadly, I have learned over the years that my body doesn't like autumn and I seem to suffer from Seasonal Affect Disorder. May be not this year as I am pregnant and SAD passed me over when I was pregnant with K. Nevertheless, oat recipes and doses of oats are added to everything - with their nutty flavour, iron giving properties and SAD combatting, nourishing goodness.
K and I tucked into porridge with honey and almonds. Yum.
Then we whipped up a batch of Blueberry, Oat and Chocolate Chip cookies. This recipe was an adapted version of this apricot and oat recipe from the Australian Taste website. Super yum.
And then because our weather is rainy and dreary, and we had friends and their moving house team to nourish we made bagels with an oat and seed topping!
Our friends have successfully moved in and while they unwrap and unpack we will head back into the kitchen to make them some casserole love!
I would love to know your favourite oat recipe x
Personal note - must work on my photography!!
