The death of George Floyd has shocked and enraged the world and the protests that have been and continue to be carried out in the USA over this past week are long overdue. But this is also the first time that I have ever been face to face with my own privilege. As it stands … Continue reading Black Lives Matter

What my bullet journal taught me
I'm sure you have heard it before but having a bullet journal genuinely changed my life! As you can see, my bullet journal is not the most artistic of places. Mainly because I am not a super artistic person...yet! I have used this lockdown period to play around with watercolour painting and it has been … Continue reading What my bullet journal taught me
Hug your pets today
Yesterday, we lost our Merry. Little Merry enjoying a bit of banana in my hand He was about 3 years old and had been on the decline for a few days. We made vet appointments just to be sure but he didn't make it to them. He died at home, next to his brother Pippin, … Continue reading Hug your pets today
Vegan Supplements that I take
Before we begin: I take these supplements because I have literally been told to by doctors. If you think that you need a supplement, always check with your doctor first as to whether it is really needed.

The End of Camp NaNoWriMo
My end word total for my Camp NaNoWriMo project: 32,098 words My goal had been 30,000 but in hindsight I actually think I could have tried to push myself and tried a bigger target.

Wash your hands!!
It has been a bit of a weird time this week. Half of the world is going mental about coronavirus, while the other half is pretending that nothing is happening. I have been super busy this week, trying to figure out what the plan is for everything moving forward. And I'm sorry to say, there … Continue reading Wash your hands!!
Pret’s chocolate and almond cookie
One of the biggest assumptions of veganism is that all baked goods are now off limits, and to be fair for a large part of my journey they were. Unless I did some (failed) baking myself, cookies and cakes were just a no-go. It was something that I had learned to live with, and one … Continue reading Pret’s chocolate and almond cookie
Linda McCartney’s pulled pork burgers
When I first went vegan, so many people became highly concerned about the fact that I would be missing out on burgers. Because you can't have a burger without meat. As usual, Linda McCartney to the rescue! These pulled pork burgers are honestly something else. I tried this one plain to begin with, so that I … Continue reading Linda McCartney’s pulled pork burgers
