Joining my good pal in sharing #100transphotos.

Day 1

Here I am today, doing a very ordinary thing, walking to the shops with the sun shining on my face.

No amount of abuse or legislation will put me back in the closet. I will fight for all trans folk to exist in peace.

Limited supplies for a vegan at my grandads so made a simple salad of crunchy oregano and garlic chickpeas, tomatoes and roasted broccoli.

Listened to Nina Simone with Grandad while I crunched away

Exhausted after having a fun guest for 6 days, so things on toast for the foreseeable.

I had leftover cashew cheese and crispy lentils for one slice, the other has curry papaya spread and pickled cabbage. Served with half an apple and some grapes

A wonderful charity shop find
A vintage book called 'What's cooking?' With four illustrations of food (cheese, butter, an apple, a pan, a man in a chefs hat) in blue and white squares with a grey background. A quote from the opening page "where fish is scant and fruit of trees, supply that want with butter and cheese" - Thomas Tusser 1524- 1580 A recipe for Cheese Éclairs- are unusual and rather fun to make

Tried the mung bean "egg" as an omelette tonight!

It works! So easy and flipped/folded perfectly! Didn't taste super eggy but I didn't mind so much!

I did sliced hot dogs, green onions and cheese in mine!

Lemon sponge, lemon curd, rosemary brown sugar swiss meringue buttercream with dehydrated lemon slices and fresh rosemary.

When you're a skint foodie but want to feel bougie, so you buy one single fancy lemon as a treat.

Said goodbye to my sweet boy today. I am just incredibly sad and wish I could sleep through my feelings. But I'm wide awake and devastated. Usually when I can't sleep he keeps me company and curls into a ball in the nook of my legs.

Stirring some sweet soy sauce into peanut butter for this peanut butter kimchi toast was a superb idea.

Grapefruit and Hazelnut is a perfect match in this loaf cake. Took me a few goes to nail it, but very happy with how it turned out!
A slice of loaf cake, it is light brown in colour with a white icing top and a segment of grapefruit. It sits on a small flowery plate on a marble surface with a tiny gold fork, some hazelnuts and slices of grapefruit in the background A light brown loaf cake topped with white icing, chopped hazelnuts and grapefruit segments.

A pal surprise bought me a takeout delivery for lunch and it has made today so much easier not having to think about feeding myself.

Things are not looking good for our Kobi but getting as much quality time as possible together.
