Just Humans Being...

If you feel any compassion towards animals, please think about cutting meat, poultry, fish, crustacea, eggs, dairy & honey from your diet...  You can find lots of information online about animal cruelty & reasons for becoming vegan.  Your body will thank you - especially if you eat a well balanced diet with as much organic produce as possible.  Read this article from last year:  Top 20 Reasons To Go Vegan . Start by taking  The Vegan Pledge  & you will receive support from The Vegan Society. To show our support for veganism & encourage folks to give it a go, we are going to post at least a photo each day of our food & interesting snippets for November. So here's tonights's dinner... Roasted vegetables with chickpeas in a tangy tomato sauce, Sime's mustard mash & steamed kale. We made the sauce similar to our pasta sauce - In a little water, we fried (or simmered on a low heat) lots of sliced onions, chopped garli

More silly times in the Smith household! Kay & Sime xx

Please leave your cars at home!!! Confused? So are we... Kay & Sime xx

A beautiful blustery day... Dancing with the  Merry Maidens ... But we didn't turn to stone! The stone circle is on a quiet lane & is free to visit - just don't cause any damage or leave any physical offerings... Don't change the site, let the site change you. Our video turned out to be rubbish...  So instead here is a favourite one from The Books - Take Time.    Hope you like it! Kay & Sime xx

Wildebeest opened earlier this year in Falmouth & we love it! Not only is all the food (& drink) vegan, but every dish is imaginative - full of colour, fabulous flavours & it's all completely wholesome too! The cafe has a great atmosphere, very chilled - with friendly staff.  There is a huge chalk board on the wall of the cafe, as well as on the inside of the toilet doors for customers to get creative & enjoy reading! Even though it's about 30 miles away from us - we've still managed to visit quite often & met up with family & friends to share the experience...  We feel very lucky to have such a nice place to go - which has to be one of the best vegan eateries around!!!  Are your mouths watering? For those of you who think vegan food is bland & boring - visit Wildebeest

Can't believe it's been nearly 2 months since our last post... As always, we have been incredibly busy with work & caring for Bebe, so when the opportunity arises to have some fun - we grab it! Here is a mishmash of photies from the last few weeks... Ending a day trip to Exmoor with a ride on the Lynton/Lynmouth funicular cliff lift. Rose's graduation at Plymouth University. We attended Sal & Ryan's there 4 years ago & no doubt we'll be doing it all over again (though probably at a different university) in another 4 years with Hugo... We are so proud of our beautiful buddy.  Not because she now has an art degree, but because of her self motivation - it's not always been an easy journey...  Going to college with strange kids after being home educated was very challenging for our shy girl, but she wanted to do it & we supported her all the way. A few years ago, she completed a foundation degree in graphic design, she fo
