Haha "play in the dirt"weve had a pretty cold winter and a lot of plants didnt survive.i dont know why but i had the foresight to bring my japanese paper plants in last autumn.so glad i did as for the gravy granules its just laziness as long as you get the best and dont put too much in as the sodium is high.sometimes i make my own stock and add a bit of cornflour and oxo cubes.thank you and your friend for joining me ❤❤❤

Don't worry if it's long Mandy coz you always make it interesting with your stories. LOVE the cottage pie! So you live next to a police station. Gosh, not sure if that's a good or bad thing. Just don't tell 'em to fuck off lol. Can I ask you what caused the anxiety, panic attacks and agoraphobia Mandy? Do you know why it came about? Also have you tried to get help? Although I know these things are not always easy. Don't feel bad or odd about praising yourself when you get things done. Sometimes I cannot get motivated at all and then when I eventually do I write down what I've done in an exercise book. If I get a bit depressed I often will read it and it makes me feel good about all the things I did manage to do. May seem silly to some people but if it helps that's the main thing.

Howdy from Southern USA! The Top of Mississippi! My friends and I LOVE watching your videos together in Discord. This recipe looked really good and deglazing with the soju is definitely what added the sweetness. Sorry to hear about your struggles with seasonal depression. I GET YOU bestie! When spring rolls around and the temps hit at least 70F (21C) I start getting ready to play in the dirt in my garden for the rest of the season. It hit 72F (22C) here this week and I manic-weeded my front flowerbeds! You should show off your garden this spring! What do you grow? Also your hair has nice curl! You could definitely train some ringlets in it by co-washing and scrunching!! It's pretty! I have one question (since none of my UK friends will answer); are gravy granules really common to use there? I noticed that Kay (Kay's Cooking™) uses them in place of beef broth???? I'm just confused. Do y'all ever make it from scratch? If not, I can put my Nan's recipe in the next video! Sorry for the wordy comment! Have a great weekend! Y'all take care!

Hi Mandy. Can't you get crushed tomatoes in a tin in the UK? Here in Australia we can get whole tomatoes in their juice, crushed or chopped; all without the skin.
