Although I have only been vegan full time for six months now, I've been a vegetarian for over four years so I've sampled a LOT of nut roasts in my time. A lot.

These photos were all taken during a snowy day at home this past week. It turns out winter isn't so bleak after all, it's actually quite beautiful. This post is pretty picture heavy, but I just couldn't narrow them down anymore. I took photos whilst walking back from a pub lunch at a nearby village, and then later along the river Soar as the sun was setting, with my cousin's beautiful labrador
