Real May’s Behind Scene 🙈
No one talks enough about the hard parts of running a vegan business.
May was a wild ride. Highs that make your heart full,🔝 and lows👎 that shake you to your core.
🔝 We kicked off with a beautiful catering event. Glowing reviews, happy faces (vegan and non-vegan), and that amazing feeling of making people smile through food.
👎 Then came the chaos. A wrong delivery to our production kitchen turned into a meltdown moment—a 100kg fridge that didn’t fit, balanced dangerously on a table. The vinyl floor we spent so much time installing got damaged. Grateful for the friends who showed up when I needed them most.
🔝 Another sold-out day at Leith Market 🙌 thank you for showing up again and again!
🔝 We finally found a solution for our storage struggle: a cute wee caravan named Frida 🛻💛
👎 Of course… five minutes before arriving, the top window flew off. Because why not add one more thing to fix?
🔝 We launched festival season at a stunning location. The weather? Meh. But the vibes? Impeccable.
👎 Our food truck still isn’t fixed. We’re running on a provisional gazebo. It’s less efficient, doesn’t look as sharp, and it’s costing us. We’ve lost money. And it hurts to say it, but we’ve had to cancel upcoming events—we’d rather take the hit than deliver something below our standards.
This is what running a business really looks like. Beautiful, exhausting, joyful, frustrating.
