The Vegan Society states that veganism is: "Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of … Continue reading What is veganism?

Veganuary 2023
Every year, January becomes Veganuary! You can find out more about the Veganuary challenge here. For me, Veganuary is a very exciting time. In the past few years I have seen the Veganuary movement explode every January. What originally started as a few new vegan products being offered in stores, is now entire lines of … Continue reading Veganuary 2023
Loma Tuno and mayo
There is something quite comforting about a tuna and sweetcorn sandwich and since going vegan I have been trying to find a good alternative to tuna. So far, my best has been my homemade chickpea and sweetcorn recipe which does a good job of replacing my tuna meals. I have to say though that there … Continue reading Loma Tuno and mayo
Buttermilk caramel nougat bar
Following on from the Love Raw bar, I have been on the lookout for more vegan dupes of favourite chocolate bars. I have tried Buttermilk products before and I have always found them to be a solid and consistent brand. Their chocolate has been tasty and reasonably priced, but it doesn't do anything spectacular. Again, … Continue reading Buttermilk caramel nougat bar
Love Raw Cream Wafer Bar
One of the key parts of veganism is finding ways to replace well loved non-vegan food items with a vegan friendly alternative. For many people (myself included for the most part) they give up animal products for the ethical reasons rather than because they don't enjoy the food. This can also be a reason why … Continue reading Love Raw Cream Wafer Bar
Doughnut Time: Piggy Smalls
I finally met my donut match...and by match I mean that it was far too much for me and I had no choice but to accept defeat. I have said it before but I say it again, Doughnut Time has some real treats. Every donut they make is an experience to eat and for me … Continue reading Doughnut Time: Piggy Smalls
Batch’d bubblegum doughnut
This is a brand new find for us. From a brand new store that I have personally never come across before. This shop was called Batch'd and upon research they appear to be a pretty big franchise with pop up shops largely in the midlands and up towards Manchester. But for me, this was a … Continue reading Batch’d bubblegum doughnut
Lush Ghost in the Dark
A new season means a new product from Lush. Autumn is my favourite season of the year because I get to wrap up in lovely fluffy jumpers, enjoy pumpkin spiced everything and Halloween is always a fun time period with the spooky vibes and witchy feel in the air. I love it. This autumn especially … Continue reading Lush Ghost in the Dark
Java Whiskers Cat Cafe
A new find for us and the perfect treat for me to celebrate my 30th birthday. Yes I am 30 and yes, I wanted to spend a quiet moment at a cat cafe with some lovely felines and sweet treats. Because I am an adult. Now I have said before that personally, if the cafe … Continue reading Java Whiskers Cat Cafe
Candy Kittens orchard apple and dragonfruit gummies
A lovely little treat today from a work colleague, who saw this packet of sweets and immediately thought that I would enjoy these. I usually do enjoy Candy Kittens but they are hard to find around where I am - or when you do find them they are stupidly expensive - so I do not … Continue reading Candy Kittens orchard apple and dragonfruit gummies
