Fuel10k Oat Muffin’s
Who loves muffins? I just love muffins, they are one of my favourite sweet treats to have whenever I am feeling peckish. I am always on the lookout for healthier alternatives. I saw these Fuel10k Oat Muffins on many fitness pages, so I just had to try them out for myself. It took me a while but I managed to get all the flavours.
Over the years I have tried many different muffins, one of my favourites has to be the sweet muffins from muffin break. I have never tried hot muffins in pots before but I was excited to give these a try.

…Lush ‘Comfort Zone’ Shower Bomb Review
I recently got this Lush ‘Comfort Zone’ Shower Bomb in my Lush ‘Glow’ gift box that I got for Christmas in 2021. It has been a while since I last tried anything from Lush, keep reading for the full review.

It wasn’t because I didn’t want to try anything new, but with adjusting to life with lockdowns and that, it just wasn’t something I thought about for a while.
Design & Scent
The design kinda reminds me of candy, not sure of the name but I am sure maybe one you guys know right? Anyways it's a rose pink colour and looked like this when I opened the gift box, it was crumbling all over everything, I have to say that was disappointing.
Maybe it was because this was next to other products in the gift box, I don't think this didn't smell like sweet blackcurrant. I drink Ribena daily and have had many blackcurrants, this wasn't that haha.…
What I got for Christmas 2021
So before we get into what I got for Christmas 2021, I thought I’d share that we were not sure about our plans for Christmas in 2021, since a lot of my family members are from the older generation. We decided it was best to wait till the summer to give them a visit, hopefully, things will get much better by then.
It sure isn’t easy not seeing my gran etc but it’s for the best for everyone at this time. Anyways, we had a Christmas at home as we have done since the year prior.
I got one present given to me this year and the rest of them are gifts to myself as a little bit of a pick me up. It’s a mixture of fitness and beauty products. I am super happy to do a post like this again, last time I did what I got for the Christmas post was in 2018.
My Vegan Protein Cookies Review
A few months ago I ordered a large haul from My Protein. I have just about finished that haul, so it won’t be long before I choose some of my favourites again, yay. I have just about finished my plant-based baked protein cookies, so it’s time for me to review them on my blog.
If you have seen my social media you may have noticed I have been on a fitness journey, so I am finding foods that fit well in my lifestyle. Check out my post on losing 40lbs.
So what are My Vegan baked protein cookies?
We all know baked cookies that you can get in the freshly baked section in supermarkets, well these are pretty similar to that in both calories and size but the difference being they is less sugar and more protein. They come in 3 mouth-watering flavours and have no artificial sweeteners.
The 3 flavours include choc chip (my favourite), double chocolate and salted caramel.
How many calories per cookie?
The cookies contain 289 calories and have 13g of protein. I have looked at similar size cookies from supermarkets and they are around the same bracket; calorie-wise. These sound great if you want to have a sweet treat but also have a little extra protein.
My thoughts on them?
At first, I really enjoyed these cookies, especially with a cup of tea but the more I had them the taste felt dry and a little fake. They do taste so much better if you pop them in the micro for about 30 seconds and have a side of ice cream and vanilla yoghurt.
The texture is a bit thicker than you would expect on a freshly baked cookie but saying that it isn’t horrible or anything. As I said above it’s best with a hot drink.
Out of all flavours, I have tried, choc chip has to be my favourite and more like its cookie counterparts.
So would you buy them again?
hmm, this I am not sure about to be honest, maybe? I might if i fancy a sweet treat with a kick of protein but apart from that maybe not but knowing me probably haha
They cost £18.99 for a box of 12 cookies but if you are a bargain hunter like me, they are usually on offer, so look out for their deals and save those pennies!
Check them out on MyVegan
Until next time

20 family-friendly Christmas movies that everyone will love!
Christmas has to be one of my favourite holidays and that’s why I made this post with 20 family-friendly Christmas movies that everyone will love! I love watching holiday movies with my family during December; it sets up the big day and brings more excitement. Over the years I have watched many Xmas movies and this post will have some of my all-time favourites in it.
My favourite Christmas movie of all time has to be Edward Scissorhands, it will forever be my favourite as I love the story and have been a fan of Johnny Depp for a long time. Check out a tag for a Christmas post from last year.
