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.
I found out about Chris' amazing journey to being free of type 2 diabetes and had to share it with you.
I hear about so many people who cure various conditions by going vegan e.g. migraines, cancer, ear, nose and throat issues, Crohn's disease and more.
What would you do for better health?
Below you'll find an interview style article where Chris explains what life was like before and after shifting to a vegan diet.
I came across Good Hemp Food a little while ago and was impressed with their range of products, as well as, how easily available they are. In this article you'll find out what they sell, where you can find their products and some details about how Good Hemp Food came about.

I'd like you to meet Stephanie Boyd. After going vegan, her shift went from diet to lifestyle. She reflected on what she had in her wardrobe, and as a result of that; The Compassionate Closet was born! It's worth finding out what she does, why she does it and how she does it. It's an inspiring story!

I came across Cocoa Libre a little while ago and wanted to share their goals with you. Why? First of all, this article and others, show that finding vegan chocolates is no bother at all. However, this article in particular, shows that Louise's products are amazingly inclusive! I find that really exciting and hopeful for those who can't tolerate wheat, dairy or eggs, for example, but want to eat chocolate.

This is my second attempt at making a chocolate chip cupcake. I was disheartened after my first try because although they looked amazing they tasted really doughy and they weren't very moist. I used a different recipe this time and was super chuffed! These cupcakes were delicious, moist, sweet but not too sweet, they didn't take long to make, and all the ingredients were easy to find.

There aren't many work socials that I've missed. We have two every year. One is organised before the end of the Autumn Term and the other is in July.
They are fun and it gives us a chance to meet everyone outside of work, when we're a little more relaxed.
It was a no-brainer because vegetarians were always catered for. The main person who organises the events, is vegetarian, so she makes sure they are catered for. However, when I went vegan, I had to ask the lady who organises the events, to contact the venue and find out if they cater for vegans. I didn't think it would be a big deal, because we always book a hotel or restaurant, where you'd think, the chefs would be used to catering for all sorts of dietary needs.

I met some of the team from the Raw Vegan Chocolate Company and was so chuffed with their huge range of raw, vegan products. Creating this post with Linus Gorpe was so interesting. It truly shows that our passions and beliefs can lead us anywhere we want them to!
Over to Linus to tell you all about how the idea of this company came about, where it's got to and all the good things that they're not willing to sacrifice for the sake of wealth.

Usually, Suraj and I don't do much for Valentine's Day. We find it quite commercialised and don't like to buy into it. However, this year, Suraj told me to keep the day free because he had some treats planned for us!
One of the treats was dinner at Raw, which is a restaurant in a hotel called La Suite West.
Read MoreWith all the recent tweets about gram flour and pancakes, I developed a craving for Pudla. They are savoury, light, amazing with 'Indian' tea and quick to make. They're also versatile. You can make them thick or thin and you can put anything you want in them.
