But with Christmas over, I finally took the chance! Upon research, Kokoro is a chain store, but this is the first time I have … Continue reading Kokoro vegan sushi

Dealing with the loss of a pet
On Christmas Eve, our Pippin finally crossed over the rainbow to be with his brother Merry. We had noticed him slowing down for a few days - not as energetic and a bit unsteady on his feet - and when we woke on Christmas Eve he was in his final moments.

I have heard wonderful things about this stuff online though and throughout the vegan community, but have never been able to find any at my local shops.

Our washing machine decided to die on us and ended up spewing water all over our kitchen/living room area at about midnight on Saturday. luckily we were both still awake so caught it early but it meant we had to spend about 2 hours trying to mop up all … Continue reading M&S Vegan truffles
Easiest vegan baking hack

Montezumas Like No Udder Chocolate
A new try today! As the weather has gone Arctic in England, I have gone back to have hot porridge for breakfast in the freezing cold mornings. Now I am not a massive fan of porridge, but I know that it is good for me and I know that it fills me up for longer, … Continue reading Montezumas Like No Udder Chocolate
