Morocco: Marrakesh
When I informed my parents and family that I had decided on the spur of the moment to take a solo backpacking trip around Morocco, the response was one of utter terror. As I cheerily enthused to my French neighbours in the Dordogne about how much I was looking forward to the Moroccan spice vibe … Continue reading Morocco: Marrakesh
Double Choc IceCream Sundae – Vegan Christmas
Christmas morning and I’m the first up to make breakfast – no changes here! Banana icecream with decadent toppings varied every morning being a regular breakfast for me (I’m clearly all against restriction) there wasn’t much else to do other than the usual blitzing to make the festive feasting special. So I decided to be … Continue reading Double Choc IceCream Sundae – Vegan Christmas
Blueberry Buckwheat Pudding
I love my short visits home to the countryside. Especially the mornings, when I am always the first one out of bed early, the lighting is perfect and changes over the half hour I spend shuffling happily around the kitchen taking my time whipping up a cosy breakfast. Then I can sink into an armchair … Continue reading Blueberry Buckwheat Pudding
Peach and Appreciation
I devoured my fair share of peaches and nectarines this summer. My colleagues knew me to make (at least) 13 of them disappear (quite quickly) for lunch. If I was giving a short grocery list to someone heading off to the supermarket, sure enough one would find “Une barquette de peches” noted in large letters. … Continue reading Peach and Appreciation

Cherry Bomb
Hello from the south of France! This has quickly become my most frequented smoothie breakfast, it’s so easy and energizing, this morning when it turned out a thicker consistency than as usual I just had to take a few snaps. Have been missing banana ice-cream as my small blender isn’t powerful enough to blitz them … Continue reading Cherry Bomb
Barcelona – Explore
There’s so much to do in Barcelona. Also, searching out the best places to eat and drink is important wherever I travel! On the street of our apartment, right beside us, was a hidden gem of a tapas and cocktail bar. It was clearly a very local spot, rustic and hip, with young friendly staff … Continue reading Barcelona – Explore
Barcelona – La Ciudad
“When you travel in a camper van, the world is your garden.” In her Mexican boots, with braided and feather tipped hair, coiled in handmade jewelry made from materials from around the world, the Spanish girl sitting beside us on the plane finished recounting her travels with this beautiful piece of inspiration. Barcelona was waiting … Continue reading Barcelona – La Ciudad
Easter Weekend
Finally getting a chance to post again; exams are not a friend of the blogging world…though I’ve been far too relaxed about study and possibly haven’t fully realised that my first exam is in two days. French politics. The Dreyfus Affair better make an appearance! Last weekend I headed back to the Wexford countryside for … Continue reading Easter Weekend
Berry Sorbet Smoothie
My go-to fast-food refuel if I’m at the house is a banana and mixed fruit smoothie. I generally put 3-4 types of fruit in my smoothies, most often with banana and always with a few extra trimmings ‘n toppings chucked in; depending on whether I’m working out that day or not, I’d add a scoop … Continue reading Berry Sorbet Smoothie
Buckwheat, Banana and Peanut Butter Whip
As I’ve probably said before, and will definitely say again, I love porridge. Some people hate the consistency, but I find it the best comfort food in the world and would happily eat it for breakfast lunch and dinner. However…porridge is not, unfortunately, raw. Even when not cooked, the oats themselves aren’t technically a raw … Continue reading Buckwheat, Banana and Peanut Butter Whip
Hazlenut, Goji and Cacao Ice-Cream
My Ninja blitzer is my best friend in the morning. Let’s face it, nothing else runs on 1500 watts at 7am, and that’s the kinda company you need at breakfast time. Banana ice-cream has been a major favourite of mine lately. It’s so easy, quick to make, and takes on any flavour challenge you throw … Continue reading Hazlenut, Goji and Cacao Ice-Cream
Spelt, Coconut Flour and Walnut Pancakes
I woke up this Sunday morning and thought, I’m gonna make pancakes. A while ago on Pancake Tuesday, myself and a friend were talking about how pancakes really aren’t that nice. They’re most often tasteless, not filling or satisfying and don’t give you any energy. As I vegan, I’ve only had pancakes once in the past few … Continue reading Spelt, Coconut Flour and Walnut Pancakes
Zucchini Tahini Noodles
Tah-dah! Bursting bowl of colour. Zucchini noodles are a big craze among raw foodists at the moment and I am all for it. I very rarely cook any of my food. The exception being porridge, which I always do raw variations of anyway. Sometimes I make a HUGE casserole tomato sauce dish with butter beans … Continue reading Zucchini Tahini Noodles
