Last Night I Wanted

Last night I wanted junk food! Chips, curry-sauce, more chips and maybe a pizza? I wanted plain doughnuts! And sugared doughnuts and I have no excuse or plausible reason, as I’m not menstruating. I guess that’s apart of the life. This life. Lockdown. Kept in. Alone? Yes. I felt alone last night and craved fulfilmentContinue reading “Last Night I Wanted”

Why I’m no Longer Dating a Meat-Eater

For a few months, I was dating a wonderful guy, who consumed meat and dairy. Initially, when I found out he ate those things, I was sure I wouldn’t get along with him long-term.

I Get so Weak

Before the pandemic, I was buying fresh fruits and vegetables, weekly. During the lockdown period, I continued to eat the foods my body needs. However, the past few months have been difficult. I feel anxious when buying groceries, due to a large percentage of the general public not adhering to the distance element of theContinue reading “I Get so Weak”

Dating a Meat Eater

A couple of months ago I began dating a meat-eater… I have told myself for the best part of a year, that I would only date someone who was plant-based. As I’ve given up meat, so it’s only right that the person I date doesn’t eat animals during mealtimes. During many of our conversations, IContinue reading “Dating a Meat Eater”

Workout Planner

How are you doing? I’m currently being phased back into work and I’m finding the whole experience quite strange.

Nothing exciting. I’veContinue reading “Workout Planner”
