A new find for us and the perfect treat for me to celebrate my 30th birthday. Yes I am 30 and yes, I wanted to spend a quiet moment at a cat cafe with some lovely felines and sweet treats. Because I am an adult. Now I have said before that personally, if the cafe … Continue reading Java Whiskers Cat Cafe

Candy Kittens orchard apple and dragonfruit gummies
A lovely little treat today from a work colleague, who saw this packet of sweets and immediately thought that I would enjoy these. I usually do enjoy Candy Kittens but they are hard to find around where I am - or when you do find them they are stupidly expensive - so I do not … Continue reading Candy Kittens orchard apple and dragonfruit gummies
Krispee Kreme strawberry glazed ring
A new day and a new donut! Now I am saying that this is all for wedding research (donut towers are far more exciting than your standard wedding cake) so really it would be silly of me not to try a new offering. Now Krispee Kreme did bring out quite a big range of new … Continue reading Krispee Kreme strawberry glazed ring
McDonald’s McPlant Burger
Since the pandemic hit I have not had a McDonald's. I think I last had one about 2 years ago and in all honesty I have not missed it. But a recent event meant that McDonald's was on offer, and it was also the first time I have been able to try to famous McPlant … Continue reading McDonald’s McPlant Burger
Honest Burgers Bacon Plant
It has been a while since I went to a decent burger place. There aren't very many around where I live as the whole global pandemic meant a lot of the restaurants had to close and eventually decided not to bother re-opening the local branches. But recently, Honest Burgers opened in my area and I … Continue reading Honest Burgers Bacon Plant
Vegan Chipotle
Now I live in England, and have done my whole life. I have therefore only heard stories about Chipotle from America. I have tried Chipotle before when I was in LA in 2018, but it was so long ago I didn't think it fair to really review it now. That being said I remember being … Continue reading Vegan Chipotle
How to keep pets cool in the heat
We are currently going through a heatwave here in England, with temperatures this week hitting 40 degrees Celsius. This is largely unheard of in the UK and we are definitely not set up for this type of heat: I kid you not when I say that roads melt and train tracks bow. Aircon is also … Continue reading How to keep pets cool in the heat
PHD smart plant peanut butter and jelly protein bar
We had a big walking day the other day and in 30 degree heat (Celsius) it was not going to be an overly pleasant day. I therefore thought it best to bring some heavy duty snacks with me to keep me going throughout the day and thought that some protein bars would be a good … Continue reading PHD smart plant peanut butter and jelly protein bar
Ben and Jerry’s Berry Revolutionary
England has just had a mini heatwave (34 degrees Celsius which is pretty uncommon for us!) and the heat of England is the heaviest, most humid heat that I have experienced. Even when the wind blows it is like having someone blow a hairdryer into your face, so it does absolutely nothing to cool you … Continue reading Ben and Jerry’s Berry Revolutionary
Pudding Stop vegan cookie dough sundae
Oh damn... Now THIS is how you do a dessert. I think this gave me enough sugar to last me for a good few months but goodness me was it delicious! A few weeks ago, during some annual leave, we took a trip to St Albans in Hertfordshire. If you have never been, I would … Continue reading Pudding Stop vegan cookie dough sundae
