Do you wanna build a snowman? ☃️ We finally g Do you wanna build a snowman? ☃️

We finally got some snow today. The girls were so excited to go out and play in it. We even managed to make a little snowman and make sure he stayed safe given the current situation.

Weekends are made for pancakes 🥞 A short stack Weekends are made for pancakes 🥞

A short stack of banana pancakes topped with berry yoghurt, @jackpotpeanutbutter  golden syrup and blueberries.

I love these as a quick and easy breakfast and it's the easiest recipe ever. 

- 1 banana
- 2 eggs 
- 3 heaped spoons of oats. 

Mix them all up and pop them in the pan. Easy! 

What's for breakfast where you are?

Another night, another burger 🍔 Another vegan Another night, another burger 🍔

Another vegan burger actually, an onion bhaji burger to be precise. 

It was so good but definitely needed more mango chutney. Although, I think there's not much in life that can't be improved with a huge dollop of mango chutney. Amirite?!

Pizza is one of my favourite foods and this one is a good one. Tom made the dough from scratch and I'm not entirely sure he'll be doing that again soon 😆

Not vegan thanks to the mozzarella and goats cheese but absolutely bloody delicious.

Tulips are my favourite and these yellow ones have really made me happy the past few days. 

Don't wait for someone to buy you flowers, buy them yourself and revel in how they make you feel.

Tom outdid himself at the weekend with this vegan stack burger. He added a potato rosti, homemade burger sauce and a slice of @violife_foods It was bloody delicious. 

Were actively trying to cut our meat intake even if we're not fully committed to going completely plant based. 

Little steps right?

This is my favourite chocolate in all the world and it is using all of my willpower to not just inhale all of it immediately. 

Tom got me this little @tonyschocolonely_uk_ire selection for Christmas. I've had it hidden so no one else can have any but I finally allowed myself a bar tonight. Myself, no one else.

What snacks do you refuse to share?

I love a beer, I really miss going out for one. But drinking on school day has had to stop this year. Enter my new favourite weekday beer. @luckysaintbeer is 0.5% and blummin delicious!

Are you a beer fan? Do you have any low alcohol/alcohol free beers to recommend? Or any other recommendations?

How many cups of tea is too many? Honestly, I re How many cups of tea is too many? 

Honestly, I reckon I have at least eight a day. I'm not too fussy when it comes to my tea but I do prefer it quite strong (stronger than this photo looks), no sugar and molten hot. Obviously, it's good if it comes with a biscuit or two too.

About Me

Hello there.

I’m Laura or Lojo.

Nice to see you in my little world on the internet.

I love tea, cake, gin, tattoos, crafty things, the husband and the baby. We have a nice little flat in London and are very happy in our new home town.

I don’t act my age and have realised that it’s the little things that make life great.

Lojo Vs The World is the place I like to share most of the things that pop into my head. Whether that’s things that have been playing on my mind, places we go and things that we do.

I hope you enjoy it and if there’s anything you’d like to know or want me to write about just say – laura@lojovstheworld.co.uk

A little more about me…

I am a mishmash of pirate loving, old lady acting and rockabilly wannabe-ing. The results of this is usually me drinking copious amounts of rum or gin, dreaming up my next sailor tattoo, knitting, cross-stitching, baking and trying to be ladylike instead of the clumsy oaf I am.

I drink too much tea and love to dunk biscuits in it. I get bored easily, especially with my hair so it doesn’t stay the same for very long. Cardigans are pretty much my favourite item of clothing and I love a good board game. Oh and I’m pretty much always cold.

My family life…

I’m married to the most mega boy in the world, my world at least, and we live in our own little pad in East London. London isn’t originally “home” for either of us but we’re making it our new home together.

I’m trying, on a semi-regular basis, to convince him we need a friend of the four-legged variety to move in with us but I’m not having much luck… yet.

Although, in April 2016 we did get a friend of the two-legged variety to move in with us in the shape of our daughter, Cecilia.

My blog…

I’d probably describe this place as a lifestyle blog.

I write about a whole load of things depending on what’s going on in my life at the time. From personal posts about the things that happening around me at the time to fantastic finds from my hours of window shopping and the yummy treats I like to make and share with my friends and family.

Find out more…

The thought of anyone reading my little blog is pretty exciting so if you want to drop me a message it’d make my day. You can find me at Laura@lojovstheworld.co.uk
