Fit Girl Gift Guide

Recently while I was washing up tupperware for the millionth time that week the thought crossed my mind 'would it be weird to ask someone for decent tupperware for Christmas?' Probably, but I would seriously love it as a present. This post started to formulate itself in my head, so here's a gift guide for the fitness obsessed girl in your life if you're looking for some inspiration :)

Gym wear. Leggings, vests and tee's. Hoodies, cycle wear, running gear, hiking gear. Socks, headbands or accessories if you aren't sure on sizes :)

Vouchers - For a new type of class, bootcamp or experience. Or again for clothes, we can never have enough gym clothes.
Like this groupon for yoga classes
Food. We are obsessed with eating. A meal plan subscription, or a veg box delivery. Vouchers for a health food shop, or a website.

Kit - Depending on their activity of choice of course, yoga mat, wrist supports, knee supports, palm guards, chalk bag, reflective stuff for winter running, bike accessories, touchscreen gloves.

A sports massage, or spa day. Something to soothe those aching muscles and tired feet is always appreciated!

A shiny new gym bag. Who can resist? I prefer a backpack myself, but there are so many styles out there, and there are some really cute options.

Equipment - skipping rope, weights, kettlebell, pull up bar, resistance bands...what do they want to have for their home gym or kit bag?

Foam roller, or massage ball, or other rehab stuff. I don't know about you but I consistently have something aching. This small set might be perfect for someone short on space. Like me, if anyone has not got my Christmas present yet :)

Some other little funny gifts or stocking fillers...
Recipe books - Paleo, low fat, vegan (try this list from no meat athlete for ideas) healthy. 

Mini toiletries - Awesome for the gym bag, the little gift sets of shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, face wash, moisturiser. Buy cruelty free of course from places listed in this post :)

Hair ties. Seriously, I can never have enough hair ties. nice quality ones that won't snag hair, or some of the invsibobble ones that don't leave a crease in your hair, maybe some headbands and dry shampoo.

Tupperware, or any food storage. Shakers, flasks, small plastic posts of snacks....ones that don't leak and won't break after 3 uses. Or like this set from Argos...look at all the sizes!!

Have a good Christmas! xx

Tips on Vegan Eating while Travelling

In this post I talked about our recent trip around Europe and there are some restaurant tips for the cities we visited. I also have some general tips on how to have a nice holiday, and not live off of chips: Plan ahead. I researched each city we were visiting and saved web pages as PDF's in my phone (in case we didn't have wifi access) with details of vegan friendly places. Sites like Happy Cow and TripAdvisor list vegetarian and vegan restaurants. Or just a google search will find you plenty of sites.  You can also download areas of google maps to use offline to take with you, and can search for addresses in it as usual so this can come in handy with finding restaurants from the PDF's. If you can't plan ahead that much, i.e. if you don't know where you will be staying, don't wait until you are hungry to try to find somewhere to eat. We tend to keep an eye out while walking around sightseeing in the day for places to go for dinner, look at menus outside ...

The Minimalist Challenge - Week 2

I recently started the "Mins Game" or Minimalist Challenge, the idea is that you get rid of one thing on day one, two things on day two and so on increasing by 1 item every day until a month has passed...by the end you will get rid of over 400 items! You can read how week 1 went here , week 2 was actually pretty much a breeze! I started to actually delve into drawers and shelves and the clutter to get rid of was plentiful. I have been posting pictures on instagram , if you feel the need to see pictures, but this week I got rid of: What seemed like about 50 glasses cases (I get a new one each time I get new glasses and never use them!) Cleaning products I have bought, used once, did not get on with and for some reason have kept. Pet things that we/they don't use/eat/play with CD's and DVD's galore! I actually had enough CD's and DVD's to take me into week 3, I post dated the days (on day 11 I counted and I had enough to go up to day 18!) and st...

Simple swaps to reduce waste

I have covered the renovation side of this blog mostly up to now, but lets get into the "green" part of ItsAGreenHouse for a little while! Back at the start of 2017 my new years resolution was to cut out 80% of the single use plastic in our household. I didn't expect we could cut it all out, but had seen so many things going around social media about plastic in the oceans and how that plastic bottle of water will still be around in hundreds of years time so I felt I had to do something and 80% over a year seemed doable. I found it actually really easy to cut out the 80%, and am now at the point where (if we were not renovating a house as its unfortunately a messy process) we could only put our landfill bin out once a month with household waste or maybe even longer as we generally put one small bag in there once a week or so. We put out 2 or 3 recycling boxes every fortnight and the food bin as and when. Now we have the allotment we compost most food waste. If you are t...
