Candy Kittens orchard apple and dragonfruit gummies

A lovely little treat today from a work colleague, who saw this packet of sweets and immediately thought that I would enjoy these. I usually do enjoy Candy Kittens but they are hard to find around where I am - or when you do find them they are stupidly expensive - so I do not … Continue reading Candy Kittens orchard apple and dragonfruit gummies

Floof Friday

It is finally starting to get a little bit colder here in England and as someone who adores big fluffy jumpers and pumpkin spiced everything, I am very excited for the cosy days coming. But not as excited as Lola is.... She has truly perfected the cosiest corner of the house. Which apparently does include … Continue reading Floof Friday

Del Monte raspberry smoothie ice lolly

This summer in England was borderline unbearable, and I am sad to say that we discovered ice lollies far too late into summer. I do think though that we hit the jackpot with the ice lolly selection. It is now starting to cool down here in England and the temperature is starting to inch back … Continue reading Del Monte raspberry smoothie ice lolly

Krispee Kreme strawberry glazed ring

A new day and a new donut! Now I am saying that this is all for wedding research (donut towers are far more exciting than your standard wedding cake) so really it would be silly of me not to try a new offering. Now Krispee Kreme did bring out quite a big range of new … Continue reading Krispee Kreme strawberry glazed ring

McDonald’s McPlant Burger

Since the pandemic hit I have not had a McDonald's. I think I last had one about 2 years ago and in all honesty I have not missed it. But a recent event meant that McDonald's was on offer, and it was also the first time I have been able to try to famous McPlant … Continue reading McDonald’s McPlant Burger

Booja-Booja Honeycomb Caramel Chocolate truffles

I think it is common knowledge that Booja-Booja products are top tier vegan goodies. I have heard amazing things about Booja-Booja, from their truffles to their ice cream offerings but I find them very hard to actually find in the usual places I shop. I've usually only seen them sold in either specialist vegan only … Continue reading Booja-Booja Honeycomb Caramel Chocolate truffles

Vivera salmon fillets

The heat is well and truly here to stay in the UK so I have been trying to find easy meals that are healthy but require as little cooking as needed. But is somewhat more exciting than just a salad. So far I have found the Vivera products, while nothing special, are always consistently tasty … Continue reading Vivera salmon fillets

Maybelline Cosmetics vegan range

I was quite shocked and honestly quite excited to see that Maybelline Cosmetics now do a number of vegan friendly make up products. This includes lipsticks, foundations, eye shadows and mascaras, as well as a number of other products. From the look I had at my local display at Superdrug, it seems you could get … Continue reading Maybelline Cosmetics vegan range

Honest Burgers Bacon Plant

It has been a while since I went to a decent burger place. There aren't very many around where I live as the whole global pandemic meant a lot of the restaurants had to close and eventually decided not to bother re-opening the local branches. But recently, Honest Burgers opened in my area and I … Continue reading Honest Burgers Bacon Plant

Snuggle Sunday

Following on from my previous post on how to keep your pets cool in the hot weather, here is an example of Lola enjoying the coolness of a frozen floor tile. She took a while to get used to it, but has now worked out why we kept putting these near her. Think she's a … Continue reading Snuggle Sunday
