Just read a great article from Dr. Frischer, a previous peanut allergy sufferer. Reading between the lines of what he has written has also come from his personal experience. Dr. Frischer says ”Having had a past peanut allergy – Twenty percent of children with peanut allergies appear to outgrow them, but they may recur” This equates to a massive upto 80% of people do not outgrow the peanut allergy. It is great to hear from an experienced allergy sufferer and this shows again that we cannot promote allergy free zones, as they are a false sense of security for allergy sufferers, therefore management is the key.

We are close to finishing the extra driveway required for the chocolate cafe, the plans of the driveway need to be given to Gingin Shire for approval.
We have planted our fruit and nut trail, just like the Cadbury Chocolate Bar, so you can wander around the fruit and nuts trees at your leisure. We will be making some of our sweets treats and cakes from the fruit that is produced on our property and from the surrounding farms. Our architect, John Kestel, will be finalising the Chocolate Cafe drawings for council approval, then we can have the concrete slab down ready to start building the cafe.
Isabella, my highly allergic child has a school attendance record of 36% due to her daily swelling with allergies. Isabella has outgrown her nut allergy and her allergy reactions have grown into an allergy monster with an out of this world proportions,now that we do not know the trigger to her reactions. The school, unfortunately, is on high alert for her allergy reactions. Our school is handling the matter the best they can. Ronald McDonald House-Learning Centres have been helping us with her education in maths and Isabella and Sophia are both loving maths, so much so that they are helping other children with their work, when at school. I love the hurdles that come my way, no matter what hurdle gets in my way, I’m here to stay and I will find a way around it.
Gotta love McHappy Day!

I’ve grown up feeling special my whole life thanks to my great parents, Cynthia and Ronald. I have the ability to see beyond problems and I am able to keep myself motivated enough to see some hurdles get knocked down or I simply just walk around the hurdle. In things that I do, I love to do them well. If I am only going to be mediocre, I will let you know. I love teaming with people and leading with people without have a title to my name. I live with this philosophy my whole life without any thought. I share this philosophy with my fellow tourism members and anyone who asks a question. You know you are doing well when people in the same industry are asking you question or referring people to you for some guidance. I love giving away my thoughts and some knowledge. What you see is what you get. Be transparent and authentic. People don’t need to feel insecure, threatened, intimidated or to be sold to, they just need to be engaged. I found the perfect medium for my creative, left handed outburst. Through the love of chocolates, nuts andtalking about allergies and tourism. Love yah Mum and Dad.

I am a self confessed person that is nuts about tourism. My hobbies are not traditional in that I do arts and crafts, although I am an arts and crafts enthusiast, I cannot fit everything into my family schedule. When I was at Caladenia Mini Golf on my last visit, I bumped into other accommodation hosts, Reg and Veronica and through conversation, they were concerned about allergies and their guests. This is the first time I have experienced someone in hospitality that is concerned about allergic reactions prior to any of their guests arrival. You are in good hands when hosts are thinking for you. Check local laws, I believe you can have antihistamines on your premises as long as they self administer the medication or ensure you are on the phone to emergency services 000 or 112 from a mobile phone. I will get back to you on what is deemed acceptable with medication administering at your premises. Well done for taking the momunentual step in discussing allergies in tourism. What steps do you want see in being “nuts about tourism”?

Friday 6th August 2010, my daughter Isabella tested negative to the “Olive tree” allergen. She has finally outgrown one of the many allergies she endures. We could go near olive trees, but she could never touch them. Years ago we gave the girls, Olive Leaf Extract, and they both had an allergic reaction to it. I am married to an Italian man so so can see the importance of the olive in our family. Preparing foods with pure olive oil never affected her, just the leaf, but canola oil disrupts her wellbeing! Go figure that one out. We only use olive oil in our house. I couldn’t imagine being allergic to the Moore River region-the largest Olive producing region in Western Australia and where our holiday home is located.
