100 POSTS!

How strange to think that this is now my 100th post on Taylor Tries Her Best! To think that I started this blog purely to talk about my newest vegan discoveries and now look at where we are! What's even weirder to think about is that I have written 100 posts, of which at least … Continue reading 100 POSTS!

Can vegans use non-vegan products that they already own?

One of the big misconceptions that I have found with veganism is the idea that if you want to go vegan you have to do away with everything non-vegan that you own in your life. While this method may work with other lifestyles, such as minimalism or decluttering, I have found this way of thinking … Continue reading Can vegans use non-vegan products that they already own?

Dating a non-vegan

One of the most common questions I get when I mention that I live with my boyfriend and that I am vegan, is whether or not he is vegan too. When I say no, they immediately respond with 'then why are you with him?'. And to this day I never know how to respond to … Continue reading Dating a non-vegan

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. In November the goal is 50,000 and with how my story was going and how much time I had to write, … Continue reading The End of Camp NaNoWriMo

We are advised that we can only leave the house to go to the shops, get some fresh air or to attend doctors appointments or care for vulnerable people (such as grandparents or at risk members of our families). … Continue reading Keeping a routine during lock down

Camp NaNoWriMo 2020

2020 has already thrown all of my plans out of whack: I wanted to travel more this year, spend more time socialising, see my friends and family more often, take on some new learning courses.....until 2020 put a big old OUT OF ORDER sign across the whole world. So....damn it. One of my big things … Continue reading Camp NaNoWriMo 2020

Audible Original Podcast – Habits for Happiness

England is currently in lockdown and so I cannot leave my house apart from necessities and one form of exercise. Granted, I am only on Day 2 of lockdown but as someone who feels quite restless most of the time, being inside my house for three weeks does fill me with some anxiety. I love … Continue reading Audible Original Podcast – Habits for Happiness

Keeping entertained during Isolation

No matter where you are in the world it is likely that you are having to self-isolate, or at most practice social distancing as the dreaded coronavirus spreads. I am required to remain at work (let's not even get into that!) so am probably one of the few non-key workers not in isolation at the … Continue reading Keeping entertained during Isolation

Being mad at bunnies

Apologies for the change in posts today....it has been a busy week with my rabbits. Because it wouldn't be a normal week without at least one sleepless night making sure they are ok. So the fun thing about rabbits is that if they stop eating they can go into GI Stasis, and they can die. … Continue reading Being mad at bunnies
