I do all of the gifts from Santa! My two dont get much in comparison to other people but I usually get pjs, a board game each, a book and something else that they have specifically asked for. I have an overly generous family that I am always trying to reel in as they go a bid mad.

That’s a lovely idea, as it sets the expectation that you are not going to get lots of things just for the sake of opening multiple things, but you can then think of items that match the want, need, read.
I have no kids but think this is a great idea.
Hello frauen I have been very inactive on the last thread but thought a lovely brand spanking new one would be a good time to drop in again! Congratulations on getting through to the second round @Begborrowsteal !
Does anyone have any good recommendations for vegetarian mince that don't involve grating a mushroom? I usually use quorn but its really been upsetting my stomach of late (although maybe that's just the mushroom soup
).

Omg yes!! Well done that’s such fab news, also on a Friday so you canThey already booked me a second interviewmuch quicker than I expected!
fiesta forever this weekend! Agree with Marmite they must have loved you!YES! I think a big part of it is just generating content on the cheap so they’re not even that well researched? It’s sort of like those tit crime channels on sky where they do the cheaply made re-enactments 
podcasts tend to be better but I suppose they don’t need to meet TV standards or worry about watershed or age ratings too?

Go get ‘em. That’s so good!They already booked me a second interview
I usually use quorn as well, but I spotted Linda McCartney's mince the other day and I think I'm going to give that a go. Might be worth a shot?Hello frauen I have been very inactive on the last thread but thought a lovely brand spanking new one would be a good time to drop in again!

I alternate between this one and quorn.
Maybe it was the ... soup, Lava
Last year, we did the Read, Need, Wear, Want (something to) each and a stocking. Will probably do the same again. We don’t buy them loads and they normally get loads from family.
My oldest just wants money, money, money this year so maybe I’ll pop 50p in a pair of socks
Morrison’s own frozen vegan mince is nice. Didn’t know LM did one so will look out for it!
We do this: something you want, something You need, something to wear, something to read! Then they write to Santa asking for 1 or 2 things (daughter wants a hockey stick this year so she can ask for bag to put it in)
I don't have kids and I don't like Harry Potter (I know, the shame!), but I do love Christmas.
Could Santa bring her something from her favourite house from Harry Potter instead of pyjamas maybe? A t-shirt or scarf and gloves or something? Scarf would be practical going into winter too I guess.
I loooooove this stuff - https://www.brandnewvegan.com/recipes/mexican-food/amazing-cauliflower-tacos. I've never used it for anything like a bolognese but it's delicious for things like veggie dan dan noodles (swap out the paprika for five spice) and tacos/burritos. Half a head of cauliflower makes a huge batch too, and it keeps for ages. Although yes, it does involve mushrooms but you can just food process them if you have one - probably the reason I haven't made it for ages is cos I moved out of the flat with the Magimix (not found at a charity shop)Hello frauen I have been very inactive on the last thread but thought a lovely brand spanking new one would be a good time to drop in again!

I love that we thought we were pushing our luck with bum mints and now 52 pages later we're emboldened enough to progress onto naming a thread after penis sausages 
Congratulations @Begborrowsteal and good luck for second round!!! You'll kill it
Gutted i missed the penguin jokes, we'll have to crowdfund some more

Tesco’s frozen own brand one is nice although speaking as a meat eater, I like it if mixed in with loads of other flavourful stuff like a chilli. I tried it for cottage pie but found the texture a bit odd. If you want to be FANCY then Vivera’s is really, really good.Hello frauen I have been very inactive on the last thread but thought a lovely brand spanking new one would be a good time to drop in again!

We’ve also got tickets for the HP Studios! I can’t wait! I’ve always said Santa doesn’t bring big expensive presents, only ones that fit into a largish stocking, so our eldest (9 now and sadly no longer a believer) would write a list of 3-4 things such as books and Lego. Then I’d put in Christmas-themed sweets and chocolates. He wants a kids Fitbit this year. We don’t go crazy at Christmas because my parents always go overboard which is very nice of them but it can get overwhelming. I think a few small presents to open is absolutely fine. When it’s too much it just feels like they’re opening them and moving on to the next thing without really taking it in.
On topic... dinner is fancy Tesco’s red onion burgers & potato wedges.

Toast and marmite brekkie but I’m planning fish and chip Friday for tea today. End of term treat!
I like it too, I'm making a huge cottage pie with it today that I want to dive into and eat already.I like Asda's
