I'm overdue! Wondering when my little one will be born... but so far so good. My second blood test for iron levels showed that they were even better than first time around (thank you, bran cereal...
I'm feeling smug and want to boast. I had my 31-week check-up today. At my previous appointment, they did a routine blood test to check my iron levels, because anaemia is a very common side-effect of...
I just ordered GroVia nappies. Most of the time, they're completely reusable. But you can also use a disposable insert within a reusable shell. My parents will be providing two days of childcare a...
That looks and sounds delicious! Yum!
So many great posts recently. Sorry I haven't contributed my own pictures in a while, but I get a lot of pleasure from looking at everyone else's!
I want to eat everything Hedi made!
Followed by Firestorm's pancakes.
Great stuff folks!
Oh yum, that looks really delicious!
I don't even like pies but that one looks really good!
ETA: Risker, those blueberry muffins look amazing!
:o Thanks folks! Hoping to add another new vegan to the world. :D
Aww, thanks!
Sounds good! I'm currently pregnant so will have to hold off until after the baby is born before giving this a try (and may water it down with some soya cream as I'm not much of a drinker even in my...
The spread is based on speculoos biscuits; I had the spread in a Belgian hotel after noting, to my surprise, that it is vegan. Nutritionally it is on a par with chocolate spread, and it is very very...
Thanks all for the advice!
I used small slices rather than grating it (it did seem too soft to grate, and the new packaging means that the tube is quite narrow which also makes grating harder). I...
^ Thank you - that's really helpful advice. Otherwise I would have put the cheese on top, and the images I've seen show it looking rather dry, so that would have been a mistake. I'd offer you all a...
Thanks for the advice all! (Except you Gwydion: no pizza for you if you carry on like that!!!) :p
Hi folks! I bought a twin-pack of No-moo melty at the Animal Aid fayre last weekend and am hoping to use some of it on a pizza this weekend. The only problem is that I don't really know what to do,...
^ It's disappointing that a vegetarian pub can be so bad at catering for vegans.
I had a good meal at the Ilford branch of this chain:...
Ooh, sounds good! I look forward to your review Marrers!
In sadder news, I went to Thai Veg on Goodge Street last Friday and found that it had closed down. There don't seem to be many left in the...
Thanks Blueberries. I don't have the time to be making my own, alas, but I should try and find a few minutes to write to companies and encourage them to up the nutritional content of their current...
I wish someone would make a vegan cheese that offered at least a little bit of nutritional value. They all tend to be high fat, low protein and no other nutrients. If anyone could make a high...
I particularly like the look of the pad thai. Is it homemade? Would you be willing to share the recipe?
Hi Robinwomb, I know it won't bring you any comfort to know that other people have also endured the same terrible experience, but I hope you will find the story of Hilary Mantel inspiring. ...
I think we are all flawed as people, but we are all trying to do our best. Just as almost all of us were at one time omnis, but were still compassionate people trying to lead good lives, so the same...
*Ahem* I think this is the kind of thread where you post pictures of your meals *before* you eat them, not in the bathroom the morning after. ;)
Having made it safely through my 12-week scan (phew!), I am finally willing to come out and say that I'm a member of the +1 crew. :D Unlike lucky missbettie, I had pretty horrible morning sickness...
missbettie - wow! No morning sickness? Heels late into pregnancy? So jealous! You appear to have avoided most of the curses of pregnancy, and have a lovely little vegan to show for it! ...
While it is certainly objectionable, I think every step towards veganism is a positive one. So I will still buy a vegan product that is made by non-vegans, in order to encourage vegan products on...
Risker, please could you open a restaurant in my neck of the woods? I would eat there every day! :D
Risker, you have excelled yourself (again). I particularly like the sound of those mushrooms. Yum!
^ That looks fantastic, Risker!
No, it's a self-catering apartment. I found that it was good value, especially when you add in discounts for members of certain vegetarian charities.
I don't recommend Govinda in Budapest - I went there and they told me that there was dairy in everything, so I couldn't find a single vegan thing to eat there.
But I do recommend www.budaveg.com -...

The loaves look yum! Oatly is a good pouring cream, but I was thinking of a whipping cream, which is what appeared to be the one used in the tiramisu (or maybe it was just icing?). Tibits also make...
That vegan tiramisu is one of the best-looking things I have ever seen! Wow! Wish someone would make one for me!
What was the vegan cream? I'm still using my dwindling stash of cremovita, but as...
Mmmm omnomnomnomnom your cooking looks delicious Louise!
^ weird - you're quoting yo-yo there but it looks like you're quoting me!
I was hesitant to link to a non-vegan recipe, but I used this http://www.omnomicon.com/rainbowcake as inspiration for the technique of how to make a rainbow cake, although obviously I switched all...
I use Wilton gel colours. At the time I purchased them (c. 2 years ago), they were vegan to the best of my knowledge (I recall checking at the time).
^ Yep. If anyone wants to catch Gwydion's cough, London Vegan Drinks is the place to be!
*passes Gwydion a Tibits smoothie*
Sorry, missed the discussion about the rainbow cake. I know how to make rainbow cakes, and have a picture of one I made recently that I haven't yet had time to upload. Basically, you split the...
