REVIEW: The perfect post gym snack from Pulsin’
Pulsin' is one of my favourite brands, I stumbled across them on twitter at the start of the year and I've been in love with them every since!

DRINKS: Homemade Apple and Cinnamon Tea
I adore tea. Green, peppermint, lemon and ginger, plain of builders tea, I love the lot of them! However sometimes I think that all of the fruit tea smell utterly wonderful then they all kind of taste the same and that taste is mostly bland!

DRINKS: Drink Baotic
I stumbled across Baotic at Merchant Square Market a couple of months ago mostly because I can smell a health food from 50 feet!

It's the fruit that … Continue reading DRINKS: Drink Baotic

One of my best friends told me that we needed to grab some cake from this gluten free bakery in Stockbridge while I was through in Edinburgh for the day.

Light alarm No longer do I use a phone alarm to wake myself up (it still goes off but … Continue reading LIFESTYLE: My new morning routine
MEAL: Grain, bean and green
I've been listening to a lot of podcasts for the past two weeks, mostly while I'm doing some cleaning or on my lunch at work to completely surround myself with nutrition and veganism. I can't recommend podcasts enough, they are an easy way to learn snippets of information, learn about other people's habbits and to … Continue reading MEAL: Grain, bean and green
REVIEW: Le Potager du Marais
Last week I was lucky enough to go to Paris for work, only for one night but PARIS! Having never been to Paris my head was instantly filled with how pretty the city is, the air of chic everyone would have and if people would actually wear berets (they don't). It took a while to sink … Continue reading REVIEW: Le Potager du Marais
