love ♥ living ♥ vegan
Following a plant-based or vegan lifestyle, is about food, drink, clothes, shoes, body treatments, hair products and more.
It's a conscious decision to think, walk and possibly, talk a better lifestyle.
I support individuals who are thinking about making the shift, as well as, those who have already begun their plant-based journey.
One of the things that non-vegans tend to worry about, is whether vegans get all the vitamins they need. Mark, who owns Omega 3, recognised this, and created a vegan product that delivers nutrients, without the death and harm that's caused by sourcing Omega from fish. He has created an alternative which is sustainable and safe, because there's no environmental contaminants to worry about!

If you want a one stop shop for vegan fashion, Grape Cat's the site to visit!
Christine and James Lucas went from eating meat, to making the connection between the duality of loving animals and eating them. They became vegetarian and then vegan. However, on their journey, they've started a Vegan Supper Club, held cooking lessons, potluck events and they now organise camping trips, gastronomy tours and more!
You can find out more about them and their business below.
Read MoreAstonish have a huge range of products, and all of them are kind to the environment, yet strong enough to make cleaning easy! You can read an interview with Nick from Astonish here.
This article features reviews of various cleaning products. The reviews have been written by Janet Higgins, Stella Goddard and Evelyn Smith.
I put this article together because I wanted to share what others think of Astonish products. I love them, because they're vegan, they're transparent about being against animal testing and are clear that animal products don't need to be used to make cleaning easy or effective.
Read on to find out what Janet, Stella and Evelyn think of the products they've used so far.

People talk about making all sorts of things, but I've not heard many people talk about making tofu. After interviewing Marco, I'm left wondering why! It seems pretty straightforward, the process leaves the maker with a bonus byproduct, it's much cheaper than buying it, and it retains a flavour, which is lost with the mass produced stuff! Or have I got it all wrong and am I just unaware of the many who make their own tofu?
I have 2 questions for you.
1.) If you make your own tofu, how do you make it?
2.) If you haven't before, would you want to give it a go and make some at home?
If you like trying out vegan products and if you like being surprised; then Vegan Tuckbox might be right up your street! Each customer receives a box of vegan goodies and the contents are a surprise.

Read MoreI met Claire at VegfestUK. It was so cool to hear how she goes out of her way to ensure that there's no cross contamination, so all her chocolates are 100% vegan! Isn't that amazing? She describes how she gets blocks of chocolate, rather than, already broken pieces, to ensure that they're completely free of any non-vegan entities. Isn't that cool?
I couldn't wait to feature this interview with Claire. So over to Claire who will tell you all about Considerit and more!
