I had a pottering about day. I love wandering about in Brighton. It is such an interesting place. I went out to get thread to sew badges onto a blanket and came back with lots of treats. I went to the market and bought Kale. I went to the health food stall and bought reduced in price pizza bases. I went to the Japanese shop E-Kagen near the station and bought snacks for when I make sushi with my housemates. I will let you know how that goes. I also bought triangle sushi ( I can't remember the Japanese name for it). It is very cleverly packaged so that the nori is separate to the rice so that it doesn't go soggy and with careful unwrapping goes back around the rice easily. The vegan one is marked with a green sticker and has seaweed inside.
My parents brought me round some cheezly melty edam and I bought some smoked tofu, onion and red pepper for my pizza. I gave the boyfriend a bit and he liked it.
I need some recipes to use up some lemony hot peri peri sauce. I don't mind the heat but the lemon is an odd flavour.
University has been an exciting time to learn to support myself and continue my vegan diet, whilst living with non-vegans. I want to share my experiences.

Mac n Cheese curiosity
I've never actually seen anyone eat mac n cheese. Maybe it isn't very British? I don't know.
I've also never had cheese before and don't like the smell and I'm guessing the taste wouldn't make me feel good either.
So why on earth do I have a fascination with mac n cheese?? It could just be the name.
So I bought some vegan cheese sauce and tried that and just about got through it but it was too cheesy for me and made me feel sick.
Then I searched online and found Happy Herbivore's soy-free mac n cheese. Result! I did make it with soya milk. I added too much turmeric which at first I thought it was a bad thing but then thought it made it better because it looked more like junk food and healthy junk food is never a bad thing. I also added red pepper for colour.
