Life in May
by thissparklylife
Hi! I’ve been MIA lately because this semester is coming to an end and assignments/studying is consuming a lot of my time, but I thought I’d share some snapshots of what I’ve been up to. Here it goes :)
where I’ve been spending a fair amount of my time: my temporary study station
eating lots of these… joking! I volunteered in a local primary school canteen for one of my assignments and sadly this is what majority of the children were ordering for lunch :(
and a lot of these…
eating lots of deliciousness – raw sushi with yummy beetroot stained ginger from CNR + vegan mushroom burger with macadamia nut cheese
jaffa raw cheesecake from CNR
I was lucky enough to be invited to Gwinganna’s wellness seminar – ‘Food Stress and You’ in Perth, which was inspiring. The retreat looks so lush, I’ve been dreaming about going. I also got to meet the lovely Annette from Wellness W.A. at the seminar.
The best raw food in Perth at PAWS. all of this for $12! Amazing.
raw sushi made with cauliflower and cashews and pizza
my boyfriend’s raw chocolate beetroot cake which I didn’t get to try :( but I heard it was ridiculously good
my study buddy
we’ve been having the most amazing weather! sunny with zero wind
loving my new iPad!
I took my mum out for her birthday lunch to The Raw Kitchen – raw nachos
delicious zucchini pasta
decadent raw truffles – I think the flavours were chilli, goji, chocolate chia, chocolate and coconut mint
leek, pumpkin and mushroom soup from Manna Wholefoods
my Ebay bargain! :)
Poppy in her “ridiculous but necessary in this chilly weather” jumper
organic market stall
a ton of organic strawberries – such a treat
raw cauliflower rice (recipe from Some Like It Raw), beets, caramelised onions, salad and nutritional yeast
I wish I was doing more of this but I pushed my body too hard earlier this week and hurt my back, so I’m taking it easy for a few days source
chia coconut pudding
brown rice thins with nut butter and “raspberry jam” made with raspberries and stevia
Have a wonderful week! xx
I love all your photos…inspires me to eat better! Good luck with your assignments and exams :)
Thanks Dee! :) xx
Your pup is so cute! I didn’t know the Fremantle markets had an organic bit?! Is it reasonably priced? It was great to meet you too :) x
There’s a stall in the middle of the fruit and veg section :) haha is organic ever reasonably priced here? If you’ve found somewhere that is, let me know! The strawberries were cheaper than conventional ones at least! I think it’s similarly priced to peaches? xx
Hi Emma, you have really inspired me to change my life. I have written down names and address of your food recommendations! Thanks for your amazing take on things, your blog is facinating and fantastic. Thank you so much.
Jo this is an absolute delight to read! I am SO happy you’ve been inspired :D Thanks for taking the time to let me know and feel free to ask any questions you may have xxx
My dog is by far the best study buddy I could have too! The weather down here in Bunbury is so ridiculously blah that I can’t be motivated to do much else. Doesn’t really leave me feeling very positive.
I’m a new follower, and found you via Rach @ In Spaces Between so hello from a fellow Western Australian.

Hi Jess! Nice to meet you :) I’m certainly not loving the weather at the moment either, I’d much rather be outside in the sunshine xx
