A year ago this week, I began this blog. It has been a surprisingly joyous way to share Ella’s milestones and memories and my own motherly challenges and achievements. With my ‘Friday Finds’, this blog also been a great medium to share products, ideas and resources that can help Mums and Dads stay sane and happy. I have thoroughly enjoyed the support that I have received, and the beautiful messages that have come through my inbox. I would like to thank everyone, whether I personally know you or not, who has read my posts and commented in some way. I’d especially like to thank a colleague of mine, Paula, who gave me the idea in the first place, and encouraged me to use my passion for technology to create this blog. Paula, thanks for the idea…it certainly has been a seed that has grown, and I hope it will continue.
From time to time, I’ve been contacted by various companies to see if I would be interested in running promotions or reviews for products. I’ve always said that I would only include products that I truly believe have made a difference to Ella and my life, and have posted honest and fair reviews. It was a coincidence that recently I was thinking about a way to celebrate my first year of ‘Happy Ella After’, when I was contacted by Kate from ‘Ella’s Kitchen‘. Kate indicated that she had come across my blog, and thought it was a lovely way for a Mother to keep record of her daughter as she grew.
At Ella’s Kitchen, they believe that a babies early experiences with food can help develop healthy eating habits that will last a lifetime. The range of Ella’s Kitchen foods are 100% organic and are designed to stimulate all of the senses, not just the taste buds. The bright, colourful squeezy pouches are great for little hands to grab and squish, and as a Mum, they are a handy snack on the go. Being organic is really important to them, because organic food is natural, contains no nasty additives, and is good for the environment, Lots of people, big and small say that it tastes better too….
Ella’s Kitchen was created by Ella’s Dad, Paul Lindley. He set up Ella’s Kitchen because he passionately believes that Ella, along with her generation, should have the opportunity to east healthy food and discover that it can be tasty, fun and cool. The team at Ella’s Kitchen sent us a variety of fruit smoothies to try, and I have to say that Ella loved them all. Cleverly titled – ‘The red one’, ‘The green one’, ‘The yellow one’ and ‘the purple one’ – these smoothies are a great alternative to other fruit products on the market. From this picture, you can see that my Ella really loved the smoothies and could not get enough of them. Ella has not taken to squeezy pouches in the past, but really loved this variety…
Kate also offered me the chance to run a competition for my readers – A Prize pack that includes 10 pouches from across their range, an Ella’s Kitchen bib and the upcycled bag. The prize value is around $45.
