Veganuary Week Five | End of Veganuary?

Hello my little dreamers! 

Five weeks ago I took the challenge of being vegan for the entire month of January. Here we are with only three days left, how time flies...

Now I bet you're all wondering, am I going to stay vegan? Signing the Veganuary pledge doesn't necessarily sign you up for life, only a month, so what am I doing now that a month is over? 

Well, I'm sure many of you will be happy to hear that I plan to stay vegan, however I'll be a little less strict with myself. Veganuary was a chance to prove to myself that I can do vegan, so now that I know I can do it, I will apply it when necessary. However, if come a day that the only non-meat product on a menu is deep fried cheese, then so be it, until then I will aim to avoid all animal products.
Eating out and being vegan, has been the most difficult part of this month. I'm constantly learning and trying new things, so I guess that's a plus.

Since going vegan, I've never felt healthier. I haven't relied on cheap burgers or meal deals to get me through the day, instead I've been snacking on fruit and hummus (a LOT of hummus...) and I've been feeling so much more stronger and ready for the world!

I'm afraid this will be the last Sunday blog post for a while, and the last Veganuary one too! However, if you want to follow my vegan adventures make sure to head over to my YouTube Channel for my Food Diary Friday's!
Catch you guys all Wednesday for my January Favourites!

Well, you are in the right place!

On Friday 14th October 2016, I got an email from YummyJobs rejecting my application. What happe...

'The Black Pearl' Candle by Maple & Whisky

"Yo ho, yo ho - a pirates life for me..." Ever since I was little, my favourite ride has always been the Pirates of the Caribbean ride in Disneyland Paris. I've been obsessed with the franchise since I was about nine, when I was given all the films for Christmas.  When I heard a Etsy shop by the name of Maple and Whisky were creating Disney-inspired candles, I jumped at the chance to purchase one.  And so I did! I decided to treat myself to their newest candle, The Black Pearl . As pictured above, I bought myself the smaller addition in the 8oz jar (larger being 12oz) for only £8.30. All candles are handmade to order, and the company gives you the option of two different wicks and waxes.  I got mine custom made with a woodwick and a paraffin soy blend wax. The paraffin soy blend wax gives the candle a really powerful fragrance which makes the musky scent even more alluring and tasteful.  " You've seen a ship with black sails, th...
