quirky responses to covid-19...

Inspired by @yumichild’s Zero Fucks Cooking cookbook, my zero fucks cauliflower soup:

• Sautee garlic/onions
• Chuck in chopped cauliflower
• Cover in stock
• Add tsp Vegetime
• Simmer the shit out if it
• Blend the shit out of it
• Garnish. Or don’t. Who cares. Eat. pic.twitter.com/pREvAnhwJj

Out at my local oval & noticed two little girls keenly watching us have a kick. They started copying what we were doing. A quick few tips (at a distance 😉) & a little chat lit up their faces! 😁 Think seeing their joy brought me more happiness than they realise! #girlsinsport

We go into a second lockdown and the Mr Whippy vans suddenly reappear. I never anticipated that the soundtrack to the pandemic would be Greensleeves.
