@nicmiller.bsky.social Did you see/hear that the case has been dropped? Yasmin posted on FB a couple of days ago. ❤️🙌🏻❤️

This is what I had for lunch and I’d happily eat it again for dinner, @southlondongirl.bsky.social 🥰
A plate of slow-roasted carrots with tahini lentils, green herb smash & pita chips (recipe from Yasmin Shah’s glorious book Sabzi). Full disclosure, I had to swap the parsley for coriander and je ne regrette rien.

I’ve made an “accidentally vegan” lunch, in that the recipe I chose just happens to be vegan. It’s DELICIOUS. All thanks to @nicmiller.bsky.social for bringing Yasmin Shah to my attention 🥰

I bought Yasmin Khan’s Sabzi on principle so I’m thrilled that it is packed with recipes I want to make! And today I’ve seen a post that says the lawsuit has been dropped - wonderful news.

As a TV licence payer I would like to give the BBC my permission to say fuck off to Trump.

Rice and peas for me. With pigeon peas (gandules).

I know you don’t drink anymore Hass but I discovered tajin recently thanks to a spicy margarita!

And thinking about it, sausage meat from a butcher could perversely be cheaper than sausages!

I would get them from a butcher, if possible. As plain as possible so you can add what you want.

Definitely decent sausages are better than sausage meat (and cheaper).

I was talking about Reuben’s with my brother just last night - I’m really craving one!

It happened after I had Covid last year and took a while to wear off. And it’s just randomly happened over the last 3-4 weeks and I’m very much menopausal! It tastes really bitter 😔

Yum. Except the coffee - I seem to have lost my taste for it 😔

Caught up with #CelebrityTraitors first thing as I was out last night and didn’t think I’d avoid spoilers until tonight. It was epic! Brilliant end to a brilliant series.

Our Coop used to be great but have now sadly reduced its range. Aldi is better than Lidl, I think.
