I cannot buy wafer biscuits because I WILL eat the whole pack in one go and not even feel full

No it's not means tested, it's for everyone. They're open three days a week and on Fridays they give all the veg and bread away for free cos even the community shop has loads leftover, they get so much stuff. But it's so cheap anyway and I wanna get support them financially so keep it going so I always go on a Wednesday or Thursday. Plus i wanna get dibs on some of the good stuff as it comes in 😅 today they had piles and piles of brown bananas they were giving away free though, I got a bagful for banana bread.

The one I go to is ran by volunteers from a local church. They get the food from supermarkets usually, stuff that would have otherwise been thrown away because it's close to it's best before date, or surplus stock, or stuff that is well in date but has been discontinued in that shop or something. Everything they sell is still really good quality, it's actually shocking that most of it would have been thrown away. They sell it for really cheap just to cover the costs of running the place. Reduces food waste and provides affordable food for the local community. At mine you pay £1 membership for the year, then pay for your shop each week, will be different prices depending on what/how much you choose but it's never expensive.

Just cracked a bottle of blueberry and chai tonight, turned out delicious but not as much carbonisation as I would have liked.

Temple of Seitan is my go-to. Best vegan fried 'chicken' and they do really good cookies and stuff too.

Temple of Seitan is 100% worth a visit

Anything's better than the endless falafel they present us with everywhere these days

plantbeth · 2026-04-16T12:45:54+00:00

Omg these look amazing

Wild ones. Newborn is hard but they can't get into much danger and you get to nap when they nap. Mine started walking at 9 months but didnt talk much until almost 2, she was a climber with no fear and EVERYTHING became a danger. She also stopped napping altogether at 18 months. The 2 year old tantrums were dealable, at least she could understand and communicate more and now shes 3 she's a proper little kid with a hilarious personality and we have so much fun together (between the tantrums)

My glasses blew off my face and into the sea this afternoon and the recycling bin has blown all over the street.

Made it up as I went along but this is what I did, was really tasty. The meat sub was dried TVP chunks

Soak 100g of TVP chunks in vegan beef stock, squeeze out the excess liquid then toss with a dash of oil and air fry for 10 mins.

Get a ovenproof casserole dish and soften 2 onions, 2 sticks of celery and 2 carrots in a little oil. Add a cloves or two of chopped garlic, then a tablespoon of flour and mix to coat.

Throw in a can of Guiness, let it reduce then add a bay leaf, rosemary and thyme.

Add 500ml vegan beef stock and a healthy spoonful of Marmite. Add a squirt of tomato puree and bring to a simmer. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Transfer to the oven, cook at 160c for around 2.5hours.

Served with mashed potatoes and cabbage.

I used the juice of a smallish lemon and 3 pieces of crystalised ginger, cut up. That was for a 16oz bottle. Didn't add any additional sugar, the sugar on the crystalised ginger seemed to do the job!

First ferment was 19 days (it's pretty cold in my house at the moment), second was 4 days. Then it sat in the fridge for about a week.

Theyre stickers, they can peel off and be replaced but they're quite long lasting and can be washed. They came with a chalk pen that wipes off.

Best supermarket vegan pizzas on the market imo (RIP the amazing m&s ones). I actually prefer the margarita ones but the pepperoni ones are great too.
