Sorry to pick you out of the crowd, especially as you've mentioned social anxiety,Fraus fraus fraus, I too am on the train smirking at the hen party jokes. So shite at posting or even reading the thread properly but I like this little slice of Internet and wish I had the brain power to connect a little more. Not to be Jack about it but social anxiety is so bad even writing this gives me the willies.
No idea what is ahead as Im replying to an early afternoon post @Alansbigplate I am retrospectively offering support. Will grunka.I was already on a downer. How come a week off work flies and a week at work drags like hell? I should’ve eaten more than toast all day that won’t have helped either. Thank you love
Social anxiety is shit and I feel you on that front, but no brain power is needed round these parts thankfully — the most effort I put in is trying to guess the answers to Alan’s penguin jokes.Fraus fraus fraus, I too am on the train smirking at the hen party jokes.

Not even sure what drama I missed on the MT but looks like some of you need a little love so here’s mine x
That sounds lovely. I’ve just eaten too and feel much better. Weird how it affects us xxHello loves. Popped off to the hospital to visit the sick for a bit, have come back and turns out I'm in a gang now. I am in the gang, right? Guys? Guys? DAN! DAN! DAN! DAN! DAN! DAN! Good job I wore my leather jacket today <flips collar>
Love to you all. You've all been so fucking lovely over the last week or so during our drama (and are always lovely to each other whatever is going on) that it makes me feel quite teary-eyed to think any of you have been upset by anything.
Won't bore you with details, but it's been a shitty couple of days for MrF but he's feeling a bit better today so I'm feeling a bit more relaxed. I've eaten a proper meal for the first time since Tuesday, and we're going to phone-watch Googlebox together in a min.

So much going on for you, glad you have eaten x
If you're thinking of sprinking the walnut/garlic mixture over the top of the cooked soup, bear in mind that raw garlic can taste harsh and might overpower the whole dish. I'm no expert but I'd probably cook the garlic along with the onions and chilli.Am planning to make a broccoli soup tomorrow. Haven't made it before but remember being served similar and had the urge to give it a go. The plan: fry some onions and chilli, add broccoli and water/stock and cook for a bit, then add coconut milk and then blend. Was also thinking about grinding some walnuts and garlic together, after hearing someone say it on a podcast the other day, probably will kind of sprinkle over the top/mix in when serving. Has anyone ever made a soup like this before, any tips?? Anything I could be adding for better taste? Cheers in advance!
I’m so sorry to hear that lovely xOh my God I've been at my Mother in Law's funeral today (beautiful but emotionally gruelling) and come back to some weird drama! Just to echo that I bloody love this thread and all of its users even if I can always keep up with it. This little corner of the internet is so welcoming, diverse and inclusive and you're all fab
Me too! It follows you around like a naughty little Minky Moo.That sounds lovely. I’ve just eaten too and feel much better. Weird how it affects us xx
ETA I hate when you half write a post and can’t be bothered with it then it turns up attached to one you do later on (now deleted my half asleep thoughts from earlier!)
Mozza's bakery is the bomb generally. There's a jalapeno and cheese foccacia that is lush and their in-store baked stollen is the best around. Full of marzipan but not too stodgy. I so miss living near a Mozzas.On the doughnuts topic: Morrisons are the ones. They did a bangin' gingerbread doughnut around Christmas the year before last and word on vegan IG is that they're coming back this year. Be prepared.
I don’t even know specific posting names I just feel like sometimes it’s a bad vibe generally and some poor politics. We all say things rashly and without thinking or using the ‘right’ words; don’t worry about that xI just wanted to drop in to say something about the controversial discussions going on in the MT. I know I haven't contributed any of those negative posts but sometimes I press the like button without realising the full implications of the post in question until someone more emotionally intelligent explains it. There is a very nice diverse community here and I didn't want anyone to think I was complicit in my silence.
