And Today was a Day Just Like Any Other


Hey there! So, I felt that my other blog is so music focused that I missed lots of interesting posts about food, veganism, yoga etc so hopefully I can keep up with more of that through this blog. I also hope to do a lot less reblogging here which could hopefully be interesting.

Found my favourite smoothie cartons in a bargain store for only 29p today … I usually pay almost 4 times that :) happy days!!

Also indulged in some of this great chocolate orange avocado pudding (obviously substituting honey for syrup) to take away from some of the stress of studying. It was really good for a treat/something different.

But still, the truth remains lethal. A lie made by man. Where my shoes become hammers and my words become sand.

Blue October were amazing last week. The raw emotion showed on stage was so powerful. I have never felt more moved by a live band before. At first it was so strange to see people almost worship them they way i guess I react to other bands but I really left with total respect for those guys - Great musicians and so talented with words.

I’m really enjoying Hank Green’s sci show videos. One of them even helped  with some uni course work  -  Brilliant!

This Sweet Potato and Courgette soup was surprisingly tasty.
2 small red onions
2 sweet potatoes
2 courgettes
1 large carrot
1 vegan stock cube
1.5 cups warm water
3/4 cup soy milk
Saute the veg in vegan marg for around 20 mins then add the liquids and boil and simmer for around an hour. Blend - and there you go, really easy and really tasty :)

So the recipe I used for these was supposed to be a for a different cake so they turned out a little like brownies rather than cupcakes but the reaction of everyone who tried them at lunch was “Oh, I can’t believe these are vegan!” one person even said they thought vegan cupcakes were better than other ones - RESULT!! Plus they are helping me through late night studying!

Recipe -> joy the baker (just used a basic butter frosting recipe)
