Snuggle Sundays

FAIL – why does my coconut milk hate me?

This was not pretty. So I saw a recipe online that was vegan chocolate mousse. All you needed was: coconut cream (2 cans worth)caocao powder (2 tablespoons, or however much to your taste) Simples, right? WRONG. Who knew that coconut milk could be such a cruel, cruel mistress? For those who do not know coconut … Continue reading FAIL – why does my coconut milk hate me? →

Plant Menu chicken burgers

Aldi is seriously killing it with the vegan food selection! I think I may have worked out how to really improve my burger eating experience. 2 words: Brioche. Buns.

I love Christmas time, because everyone starts selling mince pies. And everyone knows that mince pies are the best part of Christmas! And even Papa John's is back on the mince pie hype. These are basically the same as the cinnamon scrolls, but with mince pie filling instead. They are...ok. Downside with them is that … Continue reading Papa John’s Mince Pie scrolls →

Mental Health and lockdown

This is slightly different to what I usually talk about, but I feel it is important and needs to be addressed. Mental health, to me, is just as - if not more - important as physical health, and 2020 has been a year that has truly tested us collectively. From the threat of a global … Continue reading Mental Health and lockdown →
