The surprise 25 // Jan’s no plan – plan… 3 years away from home- f.t Pepe Lopez.

25.

Where did you come from?

All of a sudden you crept along and ruined my ‘it’ll be alright…’ mentality.

Now instead, I find Edna Mode’s voice in my head repeating –

‘Darling, what are you doing?’…

Your odd number and serious presence is not one I expected to welcome so soon.

Miley Cyrus’s 2013 cry for help, seems much more understandable now.

But, as I can’t afford a wrecking ball to swing on…

LET’S GET BAKED // Fred’s Gingerbread Recipe + PLASTIC FREE gift ideas…

Ahh gingerbread.

Your dough has cradled my hips at Christmas time for a strong 24 years.

But, it is a seasonal body transformation that I couldn’t bare to go without.

It seems to have the answer to all Christmas problems…

Cat vandalised the Christmas tree? Gingerbread. Don’t know what the F to get your Aunt Petunia? Gingerbread Man doing you wrong? Gingerbread. Still not come to terms with the…

NATURALLY HEALING PCOS with PLANTS // From meds to mandarins

NATURALLY HEALING PCOS with PLANTS // From meds to mandarins

Now, I’m sure that we are all far too familiar with the doctors waiting room…

– Opening each door with your elbows –

To then be greeted by an overworked receptionist – who is managing to balance a phone with 16 callers waiting – and a queue of sneezers. Yet, you have failed to even remember the name of the doctor you are seeing.

With a sleeve covered hand you carefully hold on to your card…

REG HITS THE VEG // The vegan who hates vegetables // Tiny tips to fight your veggie demons + reci-peas

The complexities of my taste palette range between that of an infant and Homer Simpson…

Now, if vegetables could always be hidden in a pruée, or made into the shape of / look like / taste like a doughnut – I’d be all for them…

But, just one glance at a brussel sprout and I feel as overwhelmed as I did when I first watched Scar betray Mufasa…

What do I do with that thing? Chop it? Fry it? Tie it…

When you accidentally marry your best friend // Leslie talks – Travelling the world as a two…

Improvising through life with somebody in the same boat as you, is quite a delightful boat to be in…

You find balance in each other.

Making a potential – capsized boat – a whole lot less wobbly.

When sailing on through the waves with a friend you spend nearly 24 hours a day with (and yet still miss each other on the brief moments apart) – it starts to beg the question whether this is still a…

ONE MONTH OF SWEET (SELF) LOVING // Frankie's tiny tips to help you find your FABULOUS!

ONE MONTH OF SWEET (SELF) LOVING // Frankie’s tiny tips to help you find your FABULOUS!

My self-esteem dabbles between two levels:

Either,

I’m drowning in cookies – crying at Pretty Woman – wondering if I will every be as fabulous as Julia Roberts.

Or…

I find myself rocking up at restaurants, flamboyantly dressed, wondering why people are not curtsying upon my arrival.

  ………………………………

  ‘Self – love’ isn’t a foreign concept to me.

But it certainly is a hard relationship to maintain.

BILLY EATS BYRON // Top Vegan Spots + Byron Bucket List…

When I first stepped into Byron I instantly felt like I needed to grow a pony tail.

The land of the tanned and beautiful

If you have never been to Byron – just close your eyes – and imagine that everyone you meet looks like they are either related to a Hemsworth, are a Hemsworth – or – are a Hemsworth’s distant cousin – excluded from the family, coated in tie-dye, high, talking about the meaning…

Holy Shiitake… VEGAN CHOCOLATE CAKE? The unhealthy vegan series // Bob’s sweet tooth favourites + CAKE RECIPE

I have a dream… A dream of an unfit world, surrounded by like-minded people… Dodging salad bars together and diving into chocolate fondu waterfalls Where dessert is not just recommended, but compulsory. No cookie too sweet, no brownie too rich… Where the days of solo midnight cookie raids are a thing of the past. No more Jammie Dodgers hidden under your pillow. No more shame glares for going for…
