I finally decided to brave the cold winter weather (we have had rain for 47 days in a row so far!) and decided to finally visit Oxford. I have always heard great things about this city, and now that I live relatively close by, I thought there was no better reason to visit than now. … Continue reading Crosstown The Bride doughnut

When baking goes ary…
I moved house about 6 months ago and I am still getting used to how the new appliances work, especially the new oven. I am slowly getting used to it, but since we also have an air fryer, progress has been very slow. I therefore tried to bake some cookies over the weekend and...well...lessons were … Continue reading When baking goes ary…
Buttermilk choc wafer bar
It seems there has been a bit of a hole in my life since the vegan kitkat has been discontinued. There are still great chocolate options out there, but sometimes there are itches that no amount of dairy-free chocolate can scratch. I still get a little grumpy when I walk through my local groceries and … Continue reading Buttermilk choc wafer bar
Floof Friday
I am slowly working on my garden space, and as it is winter I have finally put in place a proper bird feeder. And I finally caught a guest! This little robin stopped by for a little bite to eat, and for a little drink from the bird bath. I did not expect to feel … Continue reading Floof Friday
Tofu Heaven tofu bites
This was easily the best accidental find that I mae whilst in Rotterdam. As a city, Rotterdam seemed amazing for vegan food and vegan options, and I definitely would like to go back to fully explore it all without needing to rush. Our cruise ship was only docked in Rotterdam for around 24 hours, and … Continue reading Tofu Heaven tofu bites
Floof Friday
I recently bought some bird feeders for the new property and within minutes, this little fella was trying his hardest to get to the feeder. Look at the determination! Have you ever seen such a showdown?! So far, they haven't quite figured out how to get to the feeder, but I may buy another that … Continue reading Floof Friday
Chocolate orange bourbon cookies
Now that Halloween is over with, the Christmas spirit has absolutely taken over the UK. Granted, I think this began at the beginning of October, but here we are in November and I swear I can barely move for the amount of Christmas decorations currently in the shops. I am not normally one who decorates … Continue reading Chocolate orange bourbon cookies

My new area has so many new neighbours! We seem to have multiple groups of these birds, and I learnt that these are house sparrows. They are very chatty! I love waking up in the morning to hearing them chirping away in the surrounding bushes and trees. Males tend to have a grey cap, chestnut … Continue reading Floof Friday
Plant Pioneer no chicken kievs
I feel that the chicken kyiv is quite the staple of the British cuisine, and so when I went vegetarian it was quite hard to find anything as a replacement, let alone finding a vegan alternative. The few I have tried have always ended up being very bland and super dry, so I admit when … Continue reading Plant Pioneer no chicken kievs
Oreo gingerbread cookies
We haven't even had Halloween yet and the Christmas goodies are already starting to appear in shops! I don't tend to think about Christmas until November, but I am also a sucker for gingerbread so I am always on the look out for gingerbread anything even if it is not Christmas time. These Oreos therefore … Continue reading Oreo gingerbread cookies
