You know what...for christmas I am going to push the boat out and make home made dips for my family...see if they can tell the difference and see if my jeans still fit after!

Making the stuff doesnt fill the jeans - its scoffing it. Given the usual Christmas gross out, how would you tell if the dips had a filling effect?


"Auntie Nellie, here's a tub of homemade humus for Christmas" - is this really how you wish to share your seasonal cheer?

Yes, the way through my families heart is through their stomach...I actually dont eat all the christmas crap at christmas...my indulge is bailey in my coffee...yum yum!

good spot Asset - typo on my part. But surely the calories come from the additives and starch in the shop stuff and not from the natural ingredients (and that's even if you take calorie counting seriously.... calories are just one part of body mass... oops strayed onto the patch marked "obvious")

What?! Haringey for f*cks sake I used to live there back in 2002. Moved Sawf thinking it was where it's at.


Crocs? I have some I bought in Australia BEFORE Stella B and the great Croc invasion in ED, AND I still wear them with socks!!!!!!!!!!yippeeeeee I am a bogan.

>>it's chickpeas, garlic, lemon, olive oil and a bit of what you fancy <<


You forgot the Tahini - essential!. I made a huge batch of the stuff once in a blender and...well...you do end up with rather a lot! M & S do a lovely creamy houmous, but am more of a Tzatziki (spelling?) man myself....

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
