Pizza Hut Vegan ‘Pepperphoni’

22/07/202008/08/2020by Glen2 Comments

Hi everyone! Hope you are well. Today we have the third of the blog posts I drafted back in January where I wanted to review new vegan options in the UK. This one is for the Pizza Hut Vegan Pepperoni option. This one took me a little longer to get to at the start of 2020 as none of the Pizza Hut restaurants around my in Birmingham delivered to my address. I think I managed to get a delivery partner like Uber Eats, Deliveroo or Just Eat to deliver this one thankfully so I didn't have to walk from the city centre to my apartment before trying it.

KFC Original Recipe Vegan Burger

15/07/202008/08/2020by GlenLeave a Comment

Hi everyone! Hope you are well. We have another drafted blog post from January today and I wanted to update it and post it regardless of it being about six months late to the game. So KFC has joined the likes of Greggs and other food chains in offering a vegan option in their restaurants. I use to eat KFC myself before I adopted a vegan/plant-based diet in May 2018 (wow, I can't believe it has been over two years now)! My family tend to visit KFC on occasion and I never ate anything if I was going with them as even KFC's fries are cooked in the same oil as the meat unfortunately so the most I would get would be a soft drink.

Greggs Vegan Steak Bake

08/07/202008/08/2020by GlenLeave a Comment

Greggs have done it again. 2020 has brought us the vegan steak bake and this was another crowd pleaser by the sounds of it. I have to say I am really impressed and I enjoyed the pasty very much. It's not something that I go for too often as too much pastry isn't good but it's nice to have an alternative treat to a sausage roll if I visit Greggs in the future.

 Apple Special Event March 2019

29/03/201908/08/2020by GlenLeave a Comment

This week Apple held their March 2019 keynote in California at the Steve Jobs Theatre. They held a services based conference this time and announced many new products that are upcoming this year. I have kept this blog post quite concise by publishing my notes that I took whilst watch the keynote so I hope they're quite easy to skim through and you find them useful.

Podcast Subscriptions

22/03/201908/08/2020by Glen3 Comments

I couldn't recommend podcasts enough at the moment. They are the perfect break from everyday life and a way to escape and make time for yourself within busy schedules. There are so many available for free to listen to and I have learnt so much so far this year! I have popped five podcasts in this blog entry that I would recommend highly and a little summary about each.

Eating Vegan in Richmond VA

22/02/201908/08/2020by GlenLeave a Comment

I visited Richmond in Virginia, USA over the Xmas and New Years break. I was there visiting my friends Adam and Michael and we visited plenty of restaurants and cafés. I wanted to post about this in a separate blog entry as there were so many meals I wanted to speak about. If you want to see what I got up to whilst there you can read my last blog post about my trip here.

Living Big in a Tiny House

08/02/201908/08/2020by GlenLeave a Comment

If you've been following my website and blog for a while you'll know that I am really interested in tiny homes and living as much of a minimalist lifestyle as possible. I have a playlist on my YouTube channel where I save my favourite tiny home video tours and to be totally honest the only feed I am interested in now is Bryce's from Living Big in a Tiny House. Bryce is from New Zealand and he travels around the world visiting as many tiny homes as possible. His videos are so well produced and the homes are breathtaking! Check out my last post about tiny home inspiration.

I have raved about how good Netflix is on my blog before but they continue to amaze me and release new content! I have updated a list of films and shows I have watched since my last post on Netflix and included them here for you. I'd love to hear if you've seen any of these titles and what you think of them! Please let me know.

Why Apply for USA Summer Camp?

11/01/201908/08/2020by Glen2 Comments

I've spoken about working at summer camp before on my blog but I wanted to focus on some key elements of why it is one of the most valuable jobs you will ever have. There are so many reasons why you should work at a summer camp and I don't think I'll be able to cover them all in this post but I would love to hear what you think are the best aspects - please let me know if you've worked there before!

I retuned to the UK this week to find out Greggs have released a VEGAN SAUSAGE ROLL! I couldn't not talk about this in a blog post! They announced it with a fantastic social media campaign and they were launched on 3rd January across the UK in 900 of their stores.
