Ben and Jerry’s Oat of this swirled

I think it is pretty widely accepted that nothing beats Ben and Jerry's ice cream. Their flavours are highly creative, and their vegan range is still of the same high quality as their non-vegan options, which is rare with many other brands. I am also quite a fan of their sundaes, so when I saw … Continue reading Ben and Jerry’s Oat of this swirled

Aussie bouncy curls conditioner

I may be late to this party but I have only just discovered that the Aussie brand now have loads of vegan options. Which I am very excited about, as Aussie hair products were always one of my favourites and I was so sad to have to stop using them when I started on my … Continue reading Aussie bouncy curls conditioner

‘This is Vegan Propaganda’ by Ed Winters book review

Book description: Our choices can help alleviate the most pressing issues we face today: the climate crisis, infectious and chronic diseases, human exploitation and, of course, non-human exploitation. Undeniably, these issues can be uncomfortable to learn about but the benefits of doing so cannot be overstated.

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

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 

Kim’s vegan bakes – raspberry and white chocolate cupcake

This weekend there was a surprise vegan market along my local high street. I say surprise because there was zero advertising for it. There is usually a little row of market stalls along the high street every day, but suddenly all of the usual signs were replaced with vegan shops and local businesses. I therefore … Continue reading Kim’s vegan bakes – raspberry and white chocolate cupcake

Batch’d party ring donut

I feel that Doughnut Time may have met it's match. Batch'd seem to be releasing a lot of doughnuts that are very similar to the Doughnut Time options, but on a slightly smaller scale. Now the Batch'd doughnuts are still absolutely huge options, but compared to a Doughnut Time they are kind of small. I … Continue reading Batch’d party ring donut
