With the warmer months approaching, I have no doubt that so many of us are beginning to make plans for our garden. It always surprises me what plants - and what beautiful flowers - are actually highly toxic for companion animals, and as a result I have prepared a helpful list to help me plan … Continue reading What plants are safe for dogs?

Kookie Cat Lil Cookie Monster
I am currently working on eating more mindfully, and also eating foods that are more nutritous and more 'macro friendly'. I do however work in an office and anyone who has ever worked in an office will know that tea breaks and coookies are a sacred part of the office culture. Luckily for me, these … Continue reading Kookie Cat Lil Cookie Monster

Following on from my morning skincare routine, I thought it would help to know what my evening routine looks like. Luckily, this is way shorter! I do not wear make-up every day, as luckily my work is predominantly done from home, but on the days I do wear make-up, I tend to take this off … Continue reading My evening skincare routine
Lola’s biscoff cupcake
Biscoff is always a risky product. It tastes AMAZING, but it can also send me into diabetic shock within a few mouthfuls because it is such an overpowering flavour.

Especially during winter, my skin can get very dry and this seems to make it even more prone to issues. I have … Continue reading My vegan skincare routine
Lola’s red velvet cupcake
I have always found cupcakes to be a 'hit or miss' food for me. Either there is too much icing to cupcake ratio, or the cake itself is too dry so the whole thing falls apart as soon as you try to eat it, or the icing is so sickly and overpowering that all you … Continue reading Lola’s red velvet cupcake

If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why? Animals as Chattels. Under UK law, animals are legally classed as property, meaning that animals are viewed very similarly to books or teapots. There are some areas where this is changing, however law is a very reactive field and therefore … Continue reading Sunday Musings
Crosstown The Bride doughnut
I finally decided to brave the cold winter weather (we have had rain for 47 days in a row so far!) and decided to finally visit Oxford. I have always heard great things about this city, and now that I live relatively close by, I thought there was no better reason to visit than now. … Continue reading Crosstown The Bride doughnut
