Lush’s Comfort bath bomb

Who doesn't love a pampering spa day?! Unfortunately, these spa days can be really expensive so if I am in need of some downtime, with some pampering and some relaxing, I go to Lush. Almost all of Lush's products are vegan friendly and as a company they campaign against animal testing. I grab myself a … Continue reading Lush’s Comfort bath bomb

Taylor Tries to free roam bunnies: A journey

We have had our two bunnies, Lola (the fluffy lionhead) and Sasha (brown and white) for just over 6 months now, and I love them more than anything else in this world. They may be small, but these little bunnies make up for their size with their sass and their silly antics. They have been … Continue reading Taylor Tries to free roam bunnies: A journey

Taylor Tries the Gregg’s Vegan Sausage Roll

The dish that started it all. The one pastry that was supposedly responsible to every Gregg's employee getting a tidy little Christmas bonus due to it's resounding success and popularity during 2019. Such success was greatly deserved, as these little pastry wrapped Quorn sausages are just the right thing. Not only are they super cheap, … Continue reading Taylor Tries the Gregg’s Vegan Sausage Roll

Magnums speak for themselves. They are known for being the best ice creams around, and I can't even deny that. So finally, us vegans got to enjoy magnums all over again with their vegan range of ice creams. They also do a standard vanilla ice cream with just plain chocolate on the outside, which are … Continue reading Taylor Tries Almond Magnums

Taylor Tries Papa John’s ‘Pepperoni’

If there is one thing you need to know about me, it is that I love a good pizza. When I first went vegan, this was the hardest thing to come to terms with: No proper pizza, with that beautiful instagram worthy stretchy cheese. For the first few years of my journey, I had become … Continue reading Taylor Tries Papa John’s ‘Pepperoni’

Taylor Tries the Gregg’s vegan glazed donuts

Oh Lordy.... My time has come. I have finally lived long enough to see vegan glazed donuts. Hyperbole aside, when I first went vegan (some 4 long years ago) one of the main 'downsides' of the vegan movement was that there was no real alternatives for cakes or pastries. Truth be told, I am not … Continue reading Taylor Tries the Gregg’s vegan glazed donuts

Taylor Tries Ikea’s soft serve ice cream

Since becoming a home owner, IKEA has become my sanctuary....honestly I could spend an entire day there just looking at all of the neat stuff that they have and how I can fit it all into my little one bedroom apartment. So the fact that they now do vegan ice cream was just even more … Continue reading Taylor Tries Ikea’s soft serve ice cream

Taylor Tries to sell a couch…

When we moved into our new place, the previous owner had offered to leave her couch at the property for us. She was just going to bin it, and as we didn't want to have to buy a new one, we agreed. It was a lovely sofa: A huge corner sofa that could sit about … Continue reading Taylor Tries to sell a couch…
