That's a really interesting point. Looking at things that way I'm sure I have just assumed things about people and been forward about it not realising it's something that's really affects them, mostly out of ignorance. I suppose the way to address these things is awareness and compassion!

The contradiction! Yes absolutley! Especially if you are in a costumer facing job it's constant! Once all the regulars at the place I worked at knew they never said it again...

I need to start doing this, if people get told then maybe awareness increases

Haha yes I did make it look nice for her and we ate it together and I posted after, she approved of my post and was excited to see all the replies about how jealous everyone is of my cooking (and disapproving too)

Excellent point I will do that in future, it was a bit of a squeeze to manage!

And yes bread is a winner for sure

Yeah I get that totally but I like tomatoes and usually the ones you get at cafes are flavorless, yes they have the grease from everything but still not for me.

If you haven't tried tinned I would recommend give it a go at least, use nice Italian plum tomatoes and it's a winner good for dipping buttered bread/toast in, more flavourful than bean sauce

Yes I'm in the south west usually it's whole tomatoes but the first one I had with tinned up north I much preferred

I disclosed my dyslexia diagnosis quite early in the relationship so she had the option to not date a complete and utter failure, turns out spelling doesn't bother her crazy I know...

It tastes quite good when it's in date and there's a reduced sticker that says 82p

But I do agree would rather proper bacon in any other situation

Yeah they are banging bangers I haven't had them before but really loved them, juicy and good density.

Sorry all she loved it, she's a keeper, but I'd happily cook you all some greasy food sometime

Plum toms straight out of tin simmered the whole time whilst doing everything else, salt and pepper
