SALE   I don't usually get excited about Black Friday or Cyber Monday, finding the specific T V and technology offers boring, but recently, with it turning to online, wider sales I've become more interested. Etsy have got on board the cyber train this year (and as you know if you read any of my blogs, I am a huge fan of unique, handmade items!) plus it's a whole week of excitemnt, with the fun starting on November 21 st , at 3pm UK time.  Etsy Sale  The sale will be live until end of day on November 26th Etsy offers something different this year, and don't forget- you can personalise alot of the items too. As many of the items are made to order or low stock, I'd recommend buying early to avoid disappointment and that is why I am saying make the most of this weekend ! With 10-60% off great items, see what bargains you can find. I'll be posting vegan sales below as they become available, but feel

What is Just Strong?  I was recently scrolling through my Instagram when I spotted a sponsored advert for Just Strong - a gym-wear brand. I had never set foot in a gym and couldn't understand why I was getting these adverts, so I investigated further. What I found was a wonderful, empowering brand full of fantastically designed items. Since turning vegan I have found myself with a lot more energy- so much so I invested in a punchbag and crossfit trainer - but I was ingrigued about the 'gym setting' I'd always feared and so set out to trial a gym. It was wonderful, So clean and people were just friendly, nothing like I'd imagined. I was inspired and made my first order...when I walked into that gym wearing my 'Just Strong' Black V neck tshirt, I felt like the whole of the Just Strong Team were with me, I had never been so motivated- I beat my best time length and did it at a faster pace!

When Waitrose brought out there new Vegan nut roast, I thought my problems had ended, but the portions were tiny, the nuts burnt to achieve a cooked middle, and there are far too many beans in it for my liking! Even with 20% off the price as an introduction, I felt cheated. So, one Sunday afternoon, I took it upon my self to throw a few ingredients together, and came up with a gorgeous Sunday treat perfect for any roast plate. The recipe is flexible...If you like kidney beans, throw some in, if you like chickpeas
