Everyone is welcome.

It's all that veg. in future ravening hordes get beanz

W

Or pizza. I always did pizza or stir fry for hordes. Or toad in the hole.

Boil hotdogs, add smash and beanz. Result

I LOVE toad-in-the-hole

I actually find things like stirfry really hard to scale up - everything heats up more slowly and seems to release more liquid and it ends up as a stir-stew.

Darkhan and Roma are my favourites Chap. I always have decaf as well as I don't drink caffeine after 3pm.

Do you find that helps Hell? I tried it for a bit but it didn't seem to have any effect.

I'm cooking the parents blue cheese, pear and chorizo risotto. What a concoction!
What a bum, Polly, I hope you're ok
And Up, I'm pleased you are feeling a bit brighter. Baby steps (are what I'm aiming for)

That sounds great. I love risotto.

Am having a thai green curry thing with squid and scallops in it. The sachet of curry paste was from the imported asian foods aisle rather than the curries developed for british people aisle so is tongue-blastingly hot

Darkhan is an 11 so quite strong Chap.

I don't really know if it helps Ennn but it's a habit now and it's one less sleep-related worry for me to obsess over.

Didn't notice the time, I'm off home, talk later.

I gave up in the end because tea, coffee, and diet coke are the only reliably-available non-water sugar-free non-alcoholic drinks. Too much hassle

Seriously, pretty much all drinks contain at least one of sugar, caffeine, or alcohol

Definitely baby steps. I'm feeling hungry at all the mention of delicious food.

why should I stop having coffee in the morning? what difference will it make?

although in recent weeks have drifted from normal espresso to making gloop with sachets because I thought it was making me jittery

I know this is unhealthy and not especially helpful but can't stop asking self: why haven't I lost more weight if I really have hyperthyroidism?

most teas don't have caffeine or sugar or alcohol unless you add them?

Yeah but try sitting with mates in the pub and ordering a camomile tea.

I just have sparkling water - am the life and soul (I am actually )

#3 is making The Omelette and then 'slutty brownies' which should be interesting

Good news: the crisis team are coming every other day now. Feels less intrusive.

I drink too much diet coke, and tea (I do drink some squash too).

What are slutty brownies?

your guess is as good as mine!

I can tell you they involve oreos, brownie mix and choc chip cookie dough

They sound yummy (and decedent)
