Before going to the supermarket, I’d asked The Meat Eater if he needed anything. He asked for crisps. He usually buys the same McCoys multipack each week and so I thought, hurrah, I can force him to be carefree and adventurous and I’ll get him some Monster Munch or Square Crisps orContinue Reading
Another recipe from Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s Veg Everyday! cookbook. One thing I’ve noticed about this cookbook is that it has no approximate cooking or preparation times in it (not that I ever take any notice of the preparation times; I’m so slow, I take about four times as long as itContinue Reading
The Meat Eater gave me a copy of Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s ‘River Cottage Veg Every Day!’ cookbook for Christmas and tonight I gave one of the recipes a try. It’s a great book, packed full of tempting recipes and gorgeous colour photos. After a week of wine- and cheese-based indulgence, IContinue Reading
Cook Vegetarian Magazine contacted me a few weeks ago and asked if I wanted to be part of a feature about vegetarian Christmases. Yes please, I’d be delighted, I said. And so here I am, in the January issue, out now.Continue Reading
A few weeks ago, I had a sore throat that lasted for a week. One of those sore throats that hurt all day and all night and don’t ease off, no matter how many throat sweets you eat or hot drinks you drink. There were a couple of benefits toContinue Reading

I made this last week but didn’t take a photo, which I should have done, because it was bare noms (that means ‘very nice’ in young person speak [don’t worry, that will be the last time I use that phrase, honest]). Today I made it again and did take aContinue Reading
After last Tuesday’s disastrous attempt (see yesterday’s blog post) at ordering online from either Pizza Hut or Domino’s, we decided to give Pizza Hut another go today, with me ordering it earlier in the day for collection in the evening (my local Pizza Hut doesn’t do deliveries). Blimey, it wasContinue Reading
I got asked by vouchercodes.co.uk if I would like to review pizzas from Domino’s and Pizza Hut for them. Being a pizza lover, it didn’t take me long to click on the send button with a kind of ‘oh go on then, twist my arm…’ (e.g. ‘Yes please, I would loveContinue Reading
I invented a game on Twitter a few months ago called Guess the Soup. It’s very easy to play. All you have to do is, um, guess the soup I’m making that day (or the soup someone else is making). Today, Cassie started a new round of Guess the Soup.Continue Reading
