The Vegetarian Butcher: What the Cluck pieces

OK so the brand name is slightly confusing, but they actually have a very extensive range of vegan meat substitutes. We decided to try the chicken option first (instead of the duck that was also on offer at our supermarket at the time) as chicken replacements tend to be the plainest and therefore the easiest … Continue reading The Vegetarian Butcher: What the Cluck pieces

Vegan Butcher: Shrimp

Another new try from the Vegan Butcher counter. As mentioned in my previous post, I was super impressed by the different options the Vegan butcher counter had on offer, and I will definitely be going back there soon to try some of the other things on sale. Part of me fears I may have set … Continue reading Vegan Butcher: Shrimp

PHD Smart Plant Protein: Eton Mess

Now that I ma getting back into my fitness, I have decided to start drinking protein again. I used to drink it a lot when I was working out 5-6 days a week and found that I recovered a lot quicker than if I went without. I am now getting to the point where DOMs … Continue reading PHD Smart Plant Protein: Eton Mess

Gregg’s vegan cheese and ham baguette

My local store has finally stocked the vegan cheese and ham sandwiches! I had heard that these were coming sometime in early June but it is only now that I have actually found one. Now strictly speaking it is not anything special at all. It is literally Quorn ham and violife cheese slices. So that … Continue reading Gregg’s vegan cheese and ham baguette

Plant Based salmon

Today we have a weird one. We finally made it down to the Vegan Butcher counter at our local Asda store and I really could have bought everything. They had so many things: They had burgers, cheeses, tempeh, seitan, pizzas, 'meat', tuna, shrimp, calamari....honestly so many options that I literally had to pull myself away. … Continue reading Plant Based salmon

Bon Bag Vegan selection

It was my partners birthday in June and one of his lovely colleagues gifted him this huge bag of vegan sweets. So naturally I had to try at least SOME of them. Now this bag was huge. It was 800g and it was filled to the brim with candies. There was also a really good … Continue reading Bon Bag Vegan selection

Doughnut Time: Liam Hemsworthy

During our week off, we finally decided to venture into London. This is the first time we have been into London since February 2020. As someone who went to university in London and then later working in London for most of my career, it felt very strange to be able to be a tourist once … Continue reading Doughnut Time: Liam Hemsworthy

Creams chocolate strawberry cookie dough

Today marks the start of a well needed week off from work. When I last thought about, I haven't had a week off since Christmas and...needless to say I am absolutely shattered! My partner has also managed to book this week off so we have a very busy weekend planned of movie nights, lazy days … Continue reading Creams chocolate strawberry cookie dough

Superdrug Tea Tree foaming facial wash

I am one of those lucky people who has odd skin: In the winter, my skin is stupidly dry, yet in the summer it can get quite oily. I do wear make up most days - mainly because of work or because I'm out seeing people - but I do try my best to always … Continue reading Superdrug Tea Tree foaming facial wash

Tesco Bakery Pretzels

The smell of a bakery is always so heartwarming, and during our weekly shop we actually managed to get to the store just as all of the freshly baked goods were being put onto display. The tiger bread and cupcakes definitely called us from across the store. Now I am 99.99% certain that these pretzels … Continue reading Tesco Bakery Pretzels
