Like I said in my cinnamon milk post I never look forward to summer turning into autumn because it means we need to say goodbye to bare legs, strawberries and golden skin!

REVIEW: Sugar Daddy’s dreamboat
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.

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.

SWEET TREATS: High protein cookies
Oh my god, you're vegan? But where do you get your protein from? Firstly, shut up. Secondly, do you know how much protein you're eating?
