Another year around the sun. Happy birthday to me. A lonely one, on the other side of the world, but my first one with my son - so very special, it is.

My son arrived safely into his dad’s arms a few days ago, at home, on our bed. We are so delighted…blessed beyond measure. Every dream I’ve ever had came true the moment I held him. Pictured: The burning of the cord. So intimate and special. 🧡 #momstr #homebirth #nostr

GM #Nostr A foggy, rainy morning…early, quiet, and cozy with my husband. Featuring a very delicious buttery croissant. Today, I am preparing a bunch of freezer meals for my postpartum period. Wish me luck. Thank goodness for chairs 🙏🏻 #foodstr #grownostr

GM #nostr #coffeechain My “coffee” this morning is a warm milky drink with banana and dates. Very wholesome and nourishing🥛🍌 Today I will continue with baby / birth preparations and catch up on laundry. #grownostr #momstr

Eating my daily dates these last few weeks of pregnancy - for the supposed benefits during labour and to the cervix and because they’re simply delicious. Healthy ‘snickers’ alternative. Dates, crunchy peanut butter and sea salt. 😋 #foodstr #momstr #nostr #grownostr

The benefits of Lat Am: - access to healthy organic eggs and raw milk from expat homesteads for a quarter of the price you’d pay in the west. Such a blessing. #rawmilk #eggs #foodstr #grownostr #nostr

Homemade burgers, upon my husbands request 🍔 I made my own organic bread buns, beef patties and sauce. Tomato, onion and pickles all from the local markets. So yummy. #foodstr #foodie #homemade #grownostr #nostr
