Also, pretty sure her noodles are king soba black rice noodles (most other black noodles aren't vegan). They are around £2.50-£3 per 250g, so not cheap. We sometimes get them because they are tasty and gluten free (gf husband). There are two ways of making them look and taste great. Either boiled, then rinsed and dressed lightly in a sesame oil and soya dressing, sprinkled with sesame seeds as a noodle side dish or boiled,rinsed and added briefly to a very bright stir fry of greens like bok choy, snow peas, water spinach, etc. Topped with spring onion and red chilli. The bright green and red looks great against the black.


Fun fact: 100% of dishes are vegan until you add animal products to them.

Harry, that sounds delicious. I've bookmarked it for future use!

I've been talking to some guy through the apps and he said he was making himself a nice dinner tonight. I asked what he was making. The response: "Hamburger with egg, pasta, cheese and salad." This isn't actually that weird here. Jack should move to Portugal, where random things are put together and strong flavour is lacking.

ETA: He sent a photo and it looked even worse than imagined.

I only see Mr F at weekends at the moment and our Saturday morning routine is now that I wake up early and catch up here and he wakes up and without even opening his eyes says ‘what’s she done now?’. He still probably couldn’t pick her out of a line up but it has just really made me chuckle.

Normal routine has continued, he’s slithered over all amorous and I’ve just gasped ‘she’s BOILING mushrooms’ and he’s slithered back.

The perfect example of how she changes her appearance to fit in. There is no way I would wear an almost exact copy of my partners clothes the way Jack does in this photograph. I have my own style and he has his.

She really doesn't know who she is, does she? Searching without success to find a style that she is comfortable with.

I think she’s actually seems/looks the most comfortable in ‘normal, expected gender’ clothes, but she can’t accept that and thinks that she needs to be ‘different’ it’s why whenever she tries another style it looks like cosplay, ....... obviously people can pick and change their style, I have a friend who is truly a style chameleon, and they look comfortable whatever they are wearing.

😱 did she look in the mirror before she left the house?? Did she wear it for a bet?? Awful

She doesn't get that you can dress formally, appropriately, and still adhere to your 'traaaazers on a bird?!' aesthetic. A decently tailored suit etc, maybe show off your tattoos a bit, but then she wouldn't cause imaginary offence. I'm sat here at work in my jeans and t shirt with my AWFUL first tattoo and hand tattoos showing, just waiting for the general public to come in and start fainting at the sight of me.
