Little Pudding apple crumble cinnamon bun

I think that food may have peaked. My husband and I decided to have a little explore of London the other week and to go down some of the side alleys we have always walked past but never actually explored. I may be a little biased here, but I think London is truly one of … Continue reading Little Pudding apple crumble cinnamon bun

Wasabi onigiri seaweed salad

I love sushi. I can make my own but there are sometimes when out and about that you just want something light but filling to get you through the day. On a recent trip into London, my husband and I decided to try Wasabi for lunch. Now we are normally Itsu people, purely because there … Continue reading Wasabi onigiri seaweed salad

Dunkin Donuts maple glaze

Ahh Dunkin's Donuts...such high expectations that have so far proven to be very disappointing so far. This is another doughnut that I tried a while ago, having finally come across a Dunkin' Donuts near me. I was very excited to try their vegan falvours and I have to give them some credit that they do … Continue reading Dunkin Donuts maple glaze

What is cognitive dissonance?

Laduree chocolate raspberry macaron

Despite what this blog may suggest, my favourite thing in the entire food world is a French macaron. I could eat these all day, every day and never ever get sick of them. Annoyingly, vegan versions are very hard to come across but when I find any, I will push a queue out of the … Continue reading Laduree chocolate raspberry macaron

Crosstown Matcha and strawberry doughnut

It wouldn't be a trip into London without a little doughnut treat after lots and lots of walking! So of course I decided on a Crosstown, and I branched out this time and tried something a bit more bold. The doughnut is decribed as having a rhubarb and sweet strawberry compote inside the vegan sourdough … Continue reading Crosstown Matcha and strawberry doughnut

The local heron is back!

I live in Herfordshire, which is a rather rural area with lots of green spaces and waterways throughout it. I do of course live closer to a main city than the coutnryside, but I am lucky to have the green parks and local rivers quite close on my doorstep. They are beautiful to walk around, … Continue reading The local heron is back!

600 posts!

Goodness me, what a milestone! 600 posts about vegan food, make up, or general vegan discussion. How exciting to think that this blog started as a small little passion project to keep my busy, and look how it has grown in that time. I am excited to see how much more it can grow in … Continue reading 600 posts!

Dunkin Donuts Boston creme

I see a lot online about how a Boston Creme doughnut is the best doughnut in America. Here in the UK, you don't really get anything with Boston Creme, so I can't really comment on whether or not that may be true. But luckily Dunkin' Donuts came through and has finally brought the beloved Boston … Continue reading Dunkin Donuts Boston creme

Meatless Farm Nduja sausage ravioli

Summer is very slowly edging it's way towards England, which means I am starting to be on the lookout for lighter meals for when the summer heat really starts to hit hard. England is not built for hot weather so I am always keen to find quick meals that are light but filling. I always … Continue reading Meatless Farm Nduja sausage ravioli
