My First Vegan Food Swap

So a few weeks ago I was looking at the Vegan Ronin's blog (because it's so interesting and I love her style), and she mentioned a vegan food swap that she took part in organised by To Happy Vegans. Feeling all intrigued, I decided to sign myself up and see how it goes.

I really enjoyed putting together a few of the treats that I love and hoped that my receiver would love them too. I didn't take a pic of what I picked but Sarah did when she received it so I've just pinched her pic ;)

Really cool to see that she's using some of the bits already! You can find her blog over here at http://www.vgirlonamission.blogspot.co.uk/.


I wasn't able to open my food package until yesterday but was really happy with what I got:

Finola was really good and looked out for non-palm oil goods for my parcel as I am seriously trying to cut it out of my life and supporting businesses who choose not to use palm oil or are phasing it out.

As I write I am chomping on the vegan aero bar which I've only ever had once when I made a special trip to Vx in London.. Really love that shop! I have my eye on that Nakd bar next as I've always wanted to try the rhubarb and custard one; I think it might be a new flavour!

Love the healthy parts of my box too... I know I'll be needing all the help I can get in the new year so I will save them for then :) Really cool to receive something french too as I haven't been to France since being vegan and am sure I would have difficulties finding anything interesting like that near me.

Am definitely looking forward to taking part again next month... will hopefully will have more luck at the post office and not fighting against flustered, incompetent staff and being 20th in the queue :p
