Those of you who have been following my journey this year will know that not only have I gone vegan, I've also been trying to get healthier. Now people always ask about vegan protein (you know who you are) but in actual fact it's really hard to be protein deficient! A healthy vegan diet will … Continue reading DRINKS: Vegan protein from Strippd

REVIEW: The Baked Potato Shop (of dreams)
It's not very often that I enjoy eating out, I think I've mentioned it before but it genuinely fills me with fear and dread! The panic about what I can eat, the fear of having to deconstruct the menu with staff and the paranoia of what is really in my food (yes I'm that paranoid … Continue reading REVIEW: The Baked Potato Shop (of dreams)
MEALS: Raw zoodles and avocado
I've had one of those weeks where I've been too tired to function, we all get those right? When I'm that tired I find it tough to go to the gym (I skipped two classes and only made it to 4) and I did little to no food prep. What does that mean? I ate … Continue reading MEALS: Raw zoodles and avocado

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! A few weeks ago I was reading Pinkiebag's review of Teapig's apple … Continue reading DRINKS: Homemade Apple and Cinnamon Tea
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! Baotic is a healthy drink made from the African fruit, baobab - apparently the baobab tree is one of the oldest in the world. Never heard of the baobab fruit? Sure you have! It's the fruit that … Continue reading DRINKS: Drink Baotic
MEAL: Pumpkin soup
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! But October does mean two things Halloween and pumpkins! I bloody love pumpkins, I love to cook and bake with pumpkin throughout October, it's such a … Continue reading MEAL: Pumpkin soup
