Banana Nut Protein Smoothie

Banana Nut Protein Smoothie

November 19, 2014 by Elizabeth

A vegan post workout protein smoothie. Dear Reader, I have a confession to make. I’ve become fat. I’d always been one of those skinny people. When I left high school I weighed just over 7 stone.

Review: The Optimum 9400 Blender

September 8, 2014 by Elizabeth

I am in love with this machine! It’s got curves reminiscent of a 1950’s classic car. Its deep metallic red colour is so alluring that I want to get out the wax and start buffing it while Frank Sinatra croons in the background. The knobs and switches remind me of a vintage radio, as if, …
