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

Booja-Booja Honeycomb Caramel Chocolate truffles

I think it is common knowledge that Booja-Booja products are top tier vegan goodies. I have heard amazing things about Booja-Booja, from their truffles to their ice cream offerings but I find them very hard to actually find in the usual places I shop. I've usually only seen them sold in either specialist vegan only … Continue reading Booja-Booja Honeycomb Caramel Chocolate truffles

Vivera salmon fillets

The heat is well and truly here to stay in the UK so I have been trying to find easy meals that are healthy but require as little cooking as needed. But is somewhat more exciting than just a salad. So far I have found the Vivera products, while nothing special, are always consistently tasty … Continue reading Vivera salmon fillets

Maybelline Cosmetics vegan range

I was quite shocked and honestly quite excited to see that Maybelline Cosmetics now do a number of vegan friendly make up products. This includes lipsticks, foundations, eye shadows and mascaras, as well as a number of other products. From the look I had at my local display at Superdrug, it seems you could get … Continue reading Maybelline Cosmetics vegan range

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

Snuggle Sunday

Following on from my previous post on how to keep your pets cool in the hot weather, here is an example of Lola enjoying the coolness of a frozen floor tile. She took a while to get used to it, but has now worked out why we kept putting these near her. Think she's a … Continue reading Snuggle Sunday

Barry M Velvet matt nail polish: Silent cove blue

There is just something about having my nails painted that makes me feel like a Real Woman. I just feel a bit more put together and polished...no pun intended. Since going vegan though my nails grow so quickly that I find getting my nails done professionally is a waste, because within two weeks my nails … Continue reading Barry M Velvet matt nail polish: Silent cove blue

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
