I’m dropping in to day to let you know that Chanel’s business is still going strong and churning out delicious baked treats for special order.

Another week means another episode of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong) podcast.
In episode 88, Josh and I chat about the recent Louis Theroux documentary exploring toxic masculinity online. We consider the influencers featured within Inside The Manosphere and the damage they are doing to young people.
I also share my love for YouTube star Joe Santagato (of Basement Yard fame) and discuss why his content might just be a good counter for the manosphere.
We take time to discuss the billionaire property and tax scam going on in London and how it is destroying the cultural framework of the city.

This is a super brief blog post today to give another shout out to a wonderful vegan food stand trading regularly in Greenwich Market.
Say hello to Vegan Garden.

With so many gorgeous vegan bakeries in the UK to choose from, there is a fear that I might be reaching saturation point. But then Seasons micro home bakery came along and made me see that we have a long way to go before I reach my limit.

Greenwich Market used to be a vegan hotspot. I’m talking over a decade and a half back in time when Ms. Cupcake launched her business with a regular bakery stall.
Over time, the market welcomed and then said goodbye to a few other vegan businesses and until recently it was a bit thin on the ground for compassionate shoppers.
But now the vegan scene is thriving once again at Greenwich Market!
