Power Air Fryer XL 5 litre – Review
I have wanted an air fryer for the longest time but never bit the bullet until recently (June). I thought maybe they were a gimmick and would gather dust like many other kitchen gadgets I’ve bought over the years (hello egg steamer!) After much research, I went with the Power Air Fryer XL 5 litre.

Back to School Prep with DEALZ and PEP&CO #ad
With 3 of my kids now going to school this September (can I get a whooop!?), I try to make the least amount of shopping trips as possible.

World Breastfeeding Week. Why I don’t think Breast is Best for Everyone. Fed is Best.
It’s taken me years to finally feel comfortable sharing my breastfeeding experiences.

The 8th Amendment DOES NOT Save Lives #repealthe8th
Lately, we keep hearing how the 8th amendment saves lives. The ‘LoveBoth’ crowd say if abortion was available here millions people would not be here today. I was recently asked on twitter by an anti-choice zealot which one of my kids would I have aborted if abortion had been available here. That really hurt, they
