Right now I am waiting for my 1st attempt at a vegan chocolate cake out of a bag using coconut milk, vegan butter, vegetable oil and golden syrup.

I can make normal cakes and cookies etc but I'm making this for vegans, milk free, gluten free etc and it's got a bit of gluten in but trying to make something for everyone that tastes nice is difficult.

It didn't help that my vegetable oil was 2yrs past it's best and smelling funky. Guess that's why I've had a Dicky stomach using it lol. One bonus is I'm using vegan butter and I never noticed lol.

Coconut milk makes coffee taste a bit odd. Lol.

If you search for paleo recipes you might get better results. Against All Grain have some good ones and usually she will list egg free options too. (The pumpkin muffins are yummy.) You could use coconut oil instead of veg oil, or even olive oil, and Almond milk instead of coconut milk :)

There are also quite a few flourless recipes in general as well nowadays making them automatically gluten free. Normally they involve whisking egg whites to add air but you could use aquafaba instead I believe.

And using a more natural sugar source like maple syrup would be better than golden syrup too :)

Dear Diary.
I think it is Saturday today.
It has been 4 days now without a working car, and without biscuits.

Surely this is just par for the course? (Disappointed no one else got that jab in)


For me, i went to have some blood taken this morning. GP never told me it was a fasting blood test (the last one wasn't), and i had a coffee on the way. Might have to go back to redo them :(
 
Just going through some photos and reminiscing.
It’s incredibly hard to look at the future and take on what might be and far too easy to dwell on the past in a hazy nostalgic trip wishing to go back.

Cheers for the heads up. I'll bear that in mind. :)
 
Can we all agree that ham, cheese, and beans, do not belong on a pancake?

To me that feels even worse than beans on Weetabix.
 
Not for me that.

Although i can't say i'm a fan of baked beans in general and i'm definitely in the minority for that. My wife seems to want them with most meals!

It's not the kind of pancake I would choose to have but I guess if someone is having savoury it could work. It makes me think of the Findus crispy pancakes though lol
 
I'm working out my budget for next month and seem to be missing £300

I've no idea where it is, i've worked out variances on all my line items and it just doesn't appear anywhere. I'm absolutely confused!
 
Currently sat awake next to the new puppy while she falls asleep for the third night in a row. I'm happy doing it because she's great but man am I tried. Not sure how anyone with kids does it! At least I've got something to read while I'm here.

Tomorrow we'll start trying to leave her during the day so she doesn't feel the need for us at night.
