Veganuary 2: Boogaloo

Last year I took part in Veganuary and other than a bit of illness towards the end of the month (I am not sure if it was Veganuary related) I very much enjoyed the experience and as I have Victoria living with me this year I thought why not try it again and see what...

Making A Vegan Christmas Dinner

I haven’t posted anything up lately about veganism and I thought I would give that a little fix. I have gone every Christmas in my life without ever thinking about what a vegan would eat on Christmas Day. That was until last Christmas when Victoria came to my house for Christmas and I cooked for...

Veganuary: A look back

Well came and went and I survived. I remember seeing people saying how much of a challenge it would be and I became a little daunted by it. But, in truth, it was fairly easy and I was comfortable. Have a read below to read my overall thoughts on the month! Enjoy! Will I stay...

Veganuary Week 3

Well, well, well. Here we are for the 3rd week of Veganuary and everything is good with the world! Well in my little house anyway! As I haven’t felt too many challenging scenarios since Veganaury started I thought that I would chat a little about the food I have been making for my dinners as...

Veganuary week 2

Week one came and went with not too much difficulty and we have arrived at the end of week two at my brave endeavour to be a vegan for month… I imagined that sounding a lot more dramatic than it did! Week 2 has been completed and I am sure you are wondering how it...

Veganuary week 1

I am almost one week into Veganuary and I have to say things are going pretty well! If you want to have a read as to why I am participating in Veganuary then have a little read here. I thought it would be a good idea to provide a little bit of an update as...

Veganuary 2019

A week or so ago, the ever wonderful Victoria asked me if I would be up for participating in Veganuary this year and I almost immediately said that I wasn’t. She prodded me a little bit as to why and in all honesty I simply just didn’t have the feeling to do it. I liked...

Things I have learned from dating a (lovely) vegan for a year

So it has been just over a year since Victoria and I started dating and I have learnt quite a few things about what it is like to be a vegan, but also for someone with dietary requirements as well in Northern Ireland. I am not professing to be all knowledgeable in the world of...

Vegan dates #2: Tony and Jen’s

Welcome back to this little series of places that my girlfriend Victoria (Retrosnowflake) and I eat in due to her plant-based/vegan life. There a lot of great vegan options in Belfast nowadays and although I am not vegan, I feel it is worthwhile mentioning these places as they go to great lengths to accommodate their customers....

Aims for 2018: part 1

2017 was a weird beast, I never give resolutions or aims, so here I am to try and promise myself on a few things for the next year. This is a tripleheader, today is the general aims, tomorrow exercise related and then the third day will be blog aims. So... shall we? Lose 50lbs minimum...
