Yasssss! I love good news, chuffed for you @PennyLoafer (about the house, not the dog biscuitsThat's so sweet! I think that kids naturally bond with animals unless they're discouraged from doing so. I used to eat Winalot biscuits at my Auntie & Uncle's house when I was little. By choice, I should add.
Some happy news over here, Tattlers: I've just signed all the paperwork for my house purchase. All that's left to do now is wait for a completion date to be agreed. I'm reeling a little - I've been in my first house for 14 years and it took a huge mental effort to decide to move on - but I'm feeling good!
If I can't find tahini I will use peanut butter, the cheap oily stuff is fine. It gives a slightly different taste (not as sweet) but it is totally acceptable. Jamie Oliver says it's ok.I found this one.
1. It may well be because I’m from the North-East and I grew up in a mining family, however I’ve never known of anyone I know use olive oil for everyday cooking. She’s talking like it’s used for frying bacon and everything?
2. Peanut Butter instead of Tahini? I don’t like hummus or nuts, so it’s not for me. But this just doesn’t sound right. Happy for someone to educate me otherwise though.
3. Basic long grain rice instead of proper risotto rice. We’ve has this conversation many times!
4. Carrots instead of sweet potato. No, just no Jack. Because they are both chunky and root vegetables they’re interchangeable apparently.
If anyone wants to know where the background to ‘yes, absolutely!’ for substitutes came from, it’s definitely this video. It’s like she’s looked for things that are 10% similar as substitutes to save 30p. Rank AF.
It screams of a lack of cookery knowledge.
It made me laugh when Andi said she’d bought tofu pre lockdown... Ish that something people were stockpiling?! (Love andi, no shade but sounds ridiculous) I love tofu and I don’t know anyone that just buys it unless they a)know what to do with it b)have some kind of recipe in mindWhere are the freaking leftovers?? Someone please tell me? I haven't watched a single episode but I get the impression no leftovers have been used ever WHY IS IT CALLED LEFTOVER LARDER?https://giphy.com/AtyzAknVGAoes
I think the fact that viewing drops is pretty telling, often (especially with live things) people are late to join etc, they don’t join then leave...It reached 300 just after Andi joined, quickly went down to 250, hovered at 220 for a bit before going back to around 180.
@Motherwellgirl were those nights clubbing in the Hamilton Palace at all?Back in the days when I went clubbing and my days weren’t spent in the gym (before lockdown) and my nights weren’t spent drinking gin
THAT MAN is at it againJust saw this pop up from JO.
From a bungalow somewhere in Southend, you may hear the sound of tin cans being ripped open by the occupant's bare hands
Is that you The artist formerly known as Nozay?!Oh my god, I didn't realised they'd named me that! LMAO! @admin am I allowed to keep this one?!
Very occasionally yes. But more often in the stag which at one point was my home towns only nightclub. Then we got jesterz which was ok.@Motherwellgirl were those nights clubbing in the Hamilton Palace at all?
I couldn't watch past the first two minutes tonight gang.,I'm glad the Hellmans people have finally given her some assistant / forced her to prepare. Yes, she should be better organised and stop mentioning what a shit show she's putting on in the midst of being crap. But that length of time to fill while trying to fit to a format, rather than just talk to your phone like most Instagram lives are, needs some help to shape and structure it.
It's me! I won't change my profile picture for a while, to avoid any further confusion. Glad it's fixed, and we dont have two LITERAL nosey parkers on the one thread anymoreIs that you The artist formerly known as Nozay?!
What about eating raw sausages off the butcher as a child?https://giphy.com/jquDWJfPUMCiI
But....why??!!
Nono, you mean any of the veg with any other, and the pistou with any sauce, everything works!And substitute the carrot with a parsnip, the courgettes with half a cucumber and the pistou with some Hellmann's Garlic Mayonnaise.

I actually think the egg free egg sandwich looked and sounded really good and I'm going to make it......
Totally OT but this about the tonic reminded me of something... I used to live in Italy and in a small town (not where I lived) every year for the annual festival they filled the main fountain with wine, instead of water. One year they messed up and pumped wine through everyone’s water supply, everyone went mad filling up all containers with it, obviously, for my entire time living in Italy I was hoping for something similarThe only thing I know about Andi Oliver is that she was on a really fascinating bbc 3 programme a few years ago when she was trying to lose weight.
She did as well. And she’s besties with Neneh Cherry.
Buffalo stance. Showing my age now.
Back in the days when I went clubbing and my days weren’t spent in the gym (before lockdown) and my nights weren’t spent drinking gin
My mum said to me the other week when you move house you should see if the council will put tonic water through your taps.
Once lockdown ends. More gym. Less gin.
