WANNABE SUPERMOM

Hi and thank you for reading my blog

My name is Tanya and I am a first time Mommy. I have a wonderful fiance J and a beautiful daughter T. I used to live in South Africa but my family and I have moved to England in 2007 to get a better quality of life. I miss South Africa every day and whilst England is much better for my family, I still sometimes wish I could go back.

I was never very domesticated; I spent too much time sunbathing in the hot South African sun and watching rugby at local pubs where the beer and food was just an order away. Now that I have my little girl, I have tried to turn my bad eating habits into good and healthy ones. As much as I love T and wouldn't change her for anything in this world, I do sometimes feel there is a lot of play-dates and changing nappies, and I tend to lose touch with myself and my hobbies.

So I have decided to start this blog to push myself to share my recipes and other bits that are passionate to me. I love all food. I wish I could say that I have a really fast metabolism and the weight doesn't catch to me but unfortunately I am not 18 anymore and food seems to love me just as much as I love it! So I'm hoping to provide a lot of different types of food for you all, complete with calorie counts and other nutritional info. I feel it's important to enjoy what you eat so you won't see many super-healthy dishes like lettuce leaves and low-fat cheese (and if you do, it'll more than likely be mixed with tons of salad dressing and a thick slice of bread with butter!) so I will strive to provide you with great tasting but not great fattening recipes!

I hope that you all enjoy reading it as much as I am going to enjoy writing it!

Keep well, Tanya xx
