Living, lifestyle and general everyday thoughts and feelings
A friend of mine wrote yesterday that she wouldn’t be able to go vegan (plant-based) because she loves steak and bacon too much… and it got me thinking, when we were meat eaters we never had a steak on it’s own or bacon without some sauce, the idea of eating a plain old steak would
So, we’re 8 months into our vegan lifestyle, and starting to come a lot more to terms with exactly what it involves, the pros and cons and such like. Seems as good a time as any to have a bit of a progress report. First, the positives. Number 1, I feel great. I didn’t think
Now we’re into December (where has this year gone??) it’s probably time to start thinking about what we want to do or achieve in 2013, be it travel, family, work or play, so I’m thinking of a few ideas before the 31st so I get a bit of a head start in planning a few

If you’d have asked me 2 weeks ago what I thought of “Tiny Houses” I would have thought you were talking about a bungalow! But oh how my eyes have been opened! I LOVE tiny houses. In fact I may be a little obsessed with them. This is a far cry from what most of
I know it’s only September but it’s usually this time of year that many people are deciding what to do at new year. The Christmas adverts have started on the tv, the weather is cooling down (well for us anyways) and every year I sit and think about places I’d love to be when the
I know that sometimes we think we have it tough, a bad day at the office, money worries, body issues, family feuds, etc etc, but when it really comes down to it and you think of how millions of people struggle on a daily basis, I think most of us could do with a serious
