Mug cakes are nothing new, but it's taken me a while to try them out myself. In this case, I used my set of teacups, and how cute do they look!

I came about your blog about a year ago when I was contemplating being a vegetarian. I have decided to be now, but I'm starting off as a flexitarian, even at that it has not been easy in this country called Nigeria. Partly because vegan food stuffs are expensive and I'm just an average Nigerian university student. I'm thinking of stopping and continue when I have money because my decision is for health purposes.
