London, UK

Hi everyone! Sorry it's been a while. As I'm sure you were too, I was very busy over the festive period with two weeks in the UK! I'm back on American soil now (a lot heavier than when I left) and ready to bring in 2017! This year has been quite the journey, sometimes literally, and I'm looking forward to what the next one surprises me with. But, before I step into all things January (and probably detox mode), I have a couple of posts from my time over the pond. This first one will be about the bakeries I visited and the second will be about a few vegan/vegetarian eateries that Caleb & I tasted too! So let's crack on...

Cookies & Scream

Ok, Ok, I know I've written about these guys before, but as we were in Camden again, there was no way we weren't going to go back. The GOSH Brownies are THE softest, moistest, most chocolatey brownie I've ever had the pleasure of eating since having to be GF and I'll be damned if I don't promote them every chance I get. I have no idea how they create such magic (probs witchcraft), but whatever it is, I'm won over by it. Oh, and their Choc Chip Cookies aren't half bad either. I couldn't even wait for a photo before tucking into both. Next time, I must try and have one of their "milkshakes"; remember this place is vegan, so dairy free too, which makes their achievements even more astounding. GO EAT HERE.

NYC, NY

It's December! This year has gone by so fast I feel like I've been constantly moving, yet haven't visited half the places I wanted to! Stomach issues still a daily battle, maybe the new year will refresh my intestines and make them magic (stranger things have happened I'm sure!) In about 10 days I'll be back in the UK & Ireland hunting for places to eat, so feel free to leave suggestions in the comments, but for now I can share a couple of quick places from a trip I made to the Big Apple recently.
