Poached Egg on Toast
This is a super tasty breakfast option. I feel that, to step out of the routine of making cereals and porridge for breakfast, savory plates are such a treat. So I do, on the occasion, chomp an eggie or two. I really do enjoy the taste of eggs, and the effect they have in my body. When I eat them, my body is happy, and that’s what we all want, right?

Dischem Deodorant Crystal
I discovered the Dischem Deodorant Crystal a couple of months ago. I was browsing the deodorant aisle at Dischem, searching for a reasonably priced, natural, chemical free deodorant, when I happened to find this wonderful range. I had been using my homemade deodorant, which is lovely, but felt like I needed a bit of a change, you know, change is fun. I’ve seen the natural branded deodorant sticks, which look amazing and probably smell wonderful too, but they are seriously pricey, and I just can’t afford that right now.

It really is light, so refreshing and energizing. The benefits of green (and other vegetable juices) are endless. Firstly, you’ll need to have a juicer in order to make green juices, and this juicer extracts the liquid from your fruits and veggies and removes all the fiber.
