Let’s Try #8 – Baileys Almande

by 2 Comments

This is not a sponsored post and when you do decide to have a vegan drink do it responsible and make sure you’re not underage, as I do not promote underage or irresponsible alcohol consumption.

As someone who’s always striving to find a good balance, and has an occasional drink now or then the new Baileys Almande came as a pleasant surprise. I’m in a stage of my life where I’m well aware of what I do and don’t want to put into my body, this includes alcohol consumption. Having said that, I also am someone who enjoys letting loose every now and then, and for me that includes having a drink, that’s me being honest! Choosing carefully what I do and don’t want to share on this blog, I decided to share this delicious drink that came as a big win in the vegan community, or at least for me and my friends….

Salted Caramel Brownies

by Leave a Comment

You may or may not know that I do not have much of a sweet tooth, well that all changed with this recipe…

For me the combination of the sweet chocolate brownie and salted caramel sauce creates a perfect balance between salty and sweet. The sauce itself is still sweet, but salty enough to somehow satisfy my savory needs, it’s a magical combination!…

Sweet & Spicy Sesame Tofu

by Leave a Comment

Tofu has become one of my favorite sources of protein, I’m talking about organic and good quality tofu. The best quality I find is at the asian grocery stores, but make sure to check if these are free from GMO’s, which is a topic I’ll discuss in a future post. 

I know that many people aren’t a huge fan of tofu, mainly because many don’t really know what to do with it or how to properly prepare it. Now if you’re looking for a recipe to turn this awesome ingredient into a win don’t look any further, cause I’ve got your backs!…

Hot Spot #9 – Magic Falafel – London

by Leave a Comment

This magic falafel joint in Camden came as a nice surprise, I wasn’t craving falafel, but something about this place caught my attention. Thinking of it, it might have been the vegan brownie they had on display, as that was exactly what my friend was looking for. The place is small and can be found in the booming Camden market! 

The moment the staff caught me peeping their food stall they gave us a piece of falafel to try, this is when we both knew we’d…

Hot Spot #8 – Mildred’s – London

by 1 Comment

With four locations in London Mildred’s is a populair chain of restaurants with many delicious vegan options. They also serve some vegetarian meals, but most of their dishes are vegan or with a vegan option available. 

We went for a late breakfast and arrived around 11:40, before being told they were still closed until 12:00. After walking for almost an hour to eat at their place we patiently waited at a nearby espresso bar until the restaurant would open it’s doors. Being the fashionably late kids we are we…

A Moment Of Bliss – Yoga Vacation Narbonne

by 2 Comments

It feels like almost yesterday when I think of my time spend in France this past summer, how every morning I would walk to the kitchen on the other side of the villa, to start my days work. Throughout the day there would be this serene calmness, even when I was cooking up a storm, this stillness stayed present. Every now and then one of the guests would come peak to see what I was cooking…

Get Fit With Me

Everything I’m discussing in this post is a personal experience/opinion. Yours might differ and that’s ok, feel free to leave a comment with your experience/opinion to keep the conversation going.

Since this is the year I’m dedicating to healing, I’ve decided to share my fitness journey alongside my yoga journey.

Both for me are intertwined, because I use the mental focus I learn during my yoga practice to push myself through the resistance I face at the gym. This in return helps to guide me closer to my Self, it’s a healthy balance of mental and physical fitness….
