Crosstown Cinnamon Scroll doughnut
I somehow question how I make it through the weeks without doughnuts. I don't have them every week, but on the weeks I do get these extra little treats, it is just the most comforting and rewarding thing possible. Especially on those very busy weeks with lots of miles ran, lots of work meetings and … Continue reading Crosstown Cinnamon Scroll doughnut
‘This is Vegan Propaganda’ by Ed Winters book review
Book description: Our choices can help alleviate the most pressing issues we face today: the climate crisis, infectious and chronic diseases, human exploitation and, of course, non-human exploitation. Undeniably, these issues can be uncomfortable to learn about but the benefits of doing so cannot be overstated. It is quite literally a matter of life and … Continue reading ‘This is Vegan Propaganda’ by Ed Winters book review
Vitamin E oatmeal exfoliator
As part of my new years resolution, I am trying to focus more on my skincare and actually have a proper routine that works for me. I have used this before, but never in any sort of routine. I have however been using it regularly now for about 6 months, which I think has been … Continue reading Vitamin E oatmeal exfoliator
Crosstown vanilla bean doughnut
Another day, another doughnut. This time from Crosstown, a doughnut company that is spread out across the country but is mainly focused within London. According to their website they have around 15 locations, including stores, trucks and market stalls, all around the city so if you do plan a visit then this store will be … Continue reading Crosstown vanilla bean doughnut
Krispy Kreme I love you a-choco-lot

Now this one is not labelled as vegan, however I did do a scan of their allergens and ingredients pamphlet online and I didn't see anything … Continue reading Krispy Kreme I love you a-choco-lot
Gnaw oat milk chocolate
I find that the hunt for good vegan chocolate is an ongoing battle. My favourite used to be the Tesco's own brand orange chocolate, but it seems that they have now discontinued this to replace it with new own brand chocolate bars, none of which are vegan. Which is such a shame because this was … Continue reading Gnaw oat milk chocolate
Lush jelly soap – Snow fairy
Christmas is always my favourite time of the year, mainly because the snow fairy collection at Lush is released! This stuff smells so good and instantly lifts my mood with its bubblegum and candy smells. So of course, come January and the Boxing Day sales, I try my best to stock up on the snow fairy … Continue reading Lush jelly soap – Snow fairy
Can vegans wear wool?
I saw an interesting debate online the other day about whether wool was ethical or not for vegans. The most interesting part though was that some people seemed to be very much split down the middle. Now I always advocate that veganism is a lifestyle and not a diet, in that you can eat a … Continue reading Can vegans wear wool?
Muller corner plant based chocolate balls
Finally, a vegan version of a non-vegan staple. I remember Muller corners being one of the best snacks out there, especially the various flavours of the crunchy balls that they had on offer. This has always been one of my wishlist products as, in all honesty, the vegan yoghurt market is really quite slim. I … Continue reading Muller corner plant based chocolate balls
