Floof Friday

I can alway tell when it is winter because all of the local squirrels who live in the trees around my house all look VERY chunky. I have worked out that not only are they ravenous when it comes to eating all of the bird feed from the many bird feeders dotted around the housing … Continue reading Floof Friday

Krispy Kreme I love you a-choco-lot

I promise I don't have a doughnut problem. Krispy Kreme is just doing so well with their vegan friendly doughnuts that it feels rude not to try them all. Now this one is not labelled as vegan, however I did do a scan of their allergens and ingredients pamphlet online and I didn't see anything … Continue reading Krispy Kreme I love you a-choco-lot

Champneys Slumber body balm

In the UK, Champneys is one of the most luxurious spa brands in the country. They have had a 'at home' range for a number of years (all rather expensive, but the whole point is so that you can have spa treatment in your own home) but it is only in the last year or … Continue reading Champneys Slumber body balm

Gnaw oat milk chocolate

I find that the hunt for good vegan chocolate is an ongoing battle. My favourite used to be the Tesco's own brand orange chocolate, but it seems that they have now discontinued this to replace it with new own brand chocolate bars, none of which are vegan. Which is such a shame because this was … Continue reading Gnaw oat milk chocolate

New book reviews

One of the things I began to focus on more in 2023 was reading. As a child, I could read for hours at a time and easily get through a hundred books a year. Sadly, as with all childhood things, I lost the joy of reading as I grew older and my focus shifted onto … Continue reading New book reviews

Muller corner plant based chocolate balls

Finally, a vegan version of a non-vegan staple. I remember Muller corners being one of the best snacks out there, especially the various flavours of the crunchy balls that they had on offer. This has always been one of my wishlist products as, in all honesty, the vegan yoghurt market is really quite slim. I … Continue reading Muller corner plant based chocolate balls

NOMO cookie dough rabbit

I don't believe that these are a new addition for Veganuary but this is the first time that I ever seen the rabbits sold separately. I have usually seen them sold as part of a bigger Easter egg set, and over Christmas NOMO tend to release a range of reindeer shaped chocolates instead of bunnies. … Continue reading NOMO cookie dough rabbit

High 5 energy gel orange

One of my big goals for 2024 is to run a half marathon and a full marathon. I did complete a half marathon in 2023, but the one I am planning for 2024 will be my first chipped and timed race, so I am equal parts very nervous for it and also very excited to … Continue reading High 5 energy gel orange

Krispy Kreme Chocolate Cookie Crunch 

Now while 2024 will be a big running year for me (I have some long distance races planned so training for those starts very soon!), I simply cannot pass up a new doughnut. Especially when it involves oreo cookie too... Enter one of the newest doughnuts on offer from Krispy Kreme. The Chocolate Cookie Crunch, … Continue reading Krispy Kreme Chocolate Cookie Crunch 

Veganuary 2024

Happy New Year everyone!! 2024 is here, which means that we now have 12 months to look forward to. Do you guys have any major goals that you're looking to achieve this year? Every year I have a very optimistically long list, but I think this year I have finally made a reasonable amount of … Continue reading Veganuary 2024
