Golden hour in my living room
My beautiful old bike, which has been taking me to work every day this monthPlanning my blog posts with my homemade calendar
When I set my February goals I said I would aim to take more lifestyle-type photos and I have! What do you think? I'm really pleased I have these images to remind me of a month that's been full of fun, food and friends. Nothing big has happened

Last month when I first became vegan I mostly ate fresh veg with bread, potatoes or rice, apart from snacks. This month I've been experimenting with vegan dairy and meat substitutes!
