WHY I'M ATTEMPTING A DAIRY-FREE DIET

Dairy-free diets have become a huge talking point in the world lately, whether it be to do with dairy-based disorders, skin, overall health or weight loss. I have decided to try out a dairy-free diet to see if cutting out dairy does have an overall effect on my health in a good way. I am not lactose, dairy or gluten intolerant (that I know of) but I am trying to lose a few kilograms, sort out bloating issues and try and improve my skin. Going dairy-free is going to be hard as I love all things dairy but of course with it being the 21st century, there are plenty of dairy-free alternatives which I have yet to try.*

HOMEMADE BANANA BREAD

Yesterday I noticed that I had a few bananas that were a little too brown and mushy for my liking. As a student, you can't really afford to waste food and I hate wasting food anyway so I needed to think of a way to use up these bananas instead of throwing them in the bin. Banana bread was my instant thought as I love banana bread and hadn't had it in a long time so this was the perfect way of using up my bananas. I always have basic baking ingredients in my cupboard just in case I fancy baking something. The recipe is very simple and quick to make and I thought I would share this light, yummy treat with you for you to use if you have a few bananas going to waste.

JOB SEARCHING

For as long as I can remember, I've wanted a part time job to do alongside my studies yet it hasn't happened yet. For at least the last few years I've wanted a job but haven't been able to get one and I have no idea why. It's starting to get frustrating but I'm determined to not give up.
