I look forward to these pinned posts, but I don't mind if it's something you only do as time permits. Thanks for keeping it going!

Our first weekend at large in Weymouth and most us are sick! Alas. We at least got our library cards, just the essentials. Yesterday I made pad thai from scratch in a hilariously big wok I found. Thinking of doing peanut sauce tonight.

How's things going in Weymouth? Is it a lot better than where you were before?

I love a satay sauce! Feel free to drop any delicious recipes in !recipes@feddit.uk 😉

We've moved from one faded seaside resort town to another on the other side of the country, but it's still as different as can be. We're already on a first-name basis with three neighbours, while back in Ramsgate we never got that far in a year and a half.

I grew up in just about every bit of the west coast of the US, and I forgot how much I miss having a big slice of terrain standing behind me when I face the sea. The chalk here isn't quite as high as the Cascades, but you'd never get a giant with a train-sized willy carved onto Mt. Rainier. Size isn't everything, after all.

I'm just going to wing it with the satay sauce, but if it turns out right I'll post the method. Cheers!
