You might have just discovered this blog or you might be
wondering what is with the new name and the new look? So now might be the time
to tell the story of my blog, and how it went from Quite Simply Batty to Tea
& Sage.
I started blogging more seriously and regularly in the
period between finishing university and having a job. This time was a period of self-discovery
me, after three years of being a study-holic with an unhealthy lifestyle I was
documenting my journey to a healthier diet, a greater understanding of myself
and a greater understanding of the world around me.
About a year ago I moved back to New Zealand, my
home-country, and started a full time job. This has been by far the best
decision of my life and has led to a whole new level of self-expression.
I have been able to fully embrace a creativity and wellness centred lifestyle while
learning wonderful life lessons from working in a business setting. It has
been a pleasure share my life (through mostly health and wellness topics and
recipes) with you all.
At the beginning of this year I discovered not only was I
dairy intolerant but also gluten intolerant. The knowledge of this has driven
me to create more food alternatives that are healthy and tasty for those with
limited dietary options: celiacs, vegans, vegetarians, lactose intolerant, etc.
Encouraging others on a health centred journey and also just sharing the fun
ups and downs of my life.
Its with this in mind that I have decided Quite Simply Batty
no longer resonates with myself and the message of my blog. I have moved from a
burnt out young woman on a road of self-understanding to a young professional
passionate about health, life and love (and tea!). So I am very excited to
launch my newer, brighter, better blog – Tea & Sage. I will still be
sharing exciting new recipes that are healthy and intolerance friendly, I will
still be offering my takes on different teas I love but I will also be adding
in some fun new features like a series on living mindfully and conscientiously,
and some extra surprises I am not ready to share just yet.
I hope you stay to share in the journey of Tea & Sage
and my little blog can be an encouragement to you all.
Namaste and Enjoy. Amy.
I just found your blog and I love this place! I have got a similar profil starting blogging about healthy recipes to suit my new food intolerance - me it is diabetes so low sugar, less gluten and lactose are also my new challenge in the kitchen. I can not wait to read more recipes from this blog. Carine from www.sweetashoney.co.nz
