Melisser and I woke up early to do up our faces before the festival. I think Melisser is the only person in the world who wears more blush then me. *laugh* It’s so nice to be sharing a hotel room with another make-up whore.Â
I didn’t really have a proper meal the night before and I was starving for breakfast!! Rudee promised me that he would be making me vegan crepes for breakfast … but when we arrived all he had for me for breakfast was a carton of coconut-milk… ummmm?
As you can see by this photo Rudee packed enough Wheaty Spacebars for his breakfast. Yeesh.Â
He finally relented and took me to a grocery store so I could grab some food…
By the time we got to the festival it was in full swing!!
The first thing I saw was the UK version of How It All Vegan. Gosh … that UK cover … no words. The only consolation is that it’s not as bad as Isa’s cover.Â
Then we hopped around the festival trying food… there was vegan Gyros by Wheaty.
The best part of my day was taste-testing Vegusto Cheese. Now THIS is how vegan cheese should taste. … dirty … smelly… delicious!!
I hope they come to Canada soon. Hint! Hint!
For lunch Melisser and I hit up this stall (sorry – I’ve forgotten the name) for a delish home-cooked meal. The butter bean stew was TO DIE FOR!
I saw some people staring at me … I thought I had greens in my teeth from lunch but it turns out that Englanders are VERY polite. Once I waved at them they finally came over and we chatted. As soon as the ice-broke there was suddenly a line of people wanting to chat with me. It was cool. I met some really great people!
I also got to say hi to the Sea Shepherd kids … those guys are my heros!
After the fair we drove to Cafe Kino for a cup of tea and to rest our sore feet.
What a fun group of new friends I’ve made.Â
Then we stopped by a Banksy …
And I went back to the hotel to go to bed early … gotta get my beauty rest. I have a photo-shoot with Total Tattoo tomorrow!
