My trip to infinity foods was a success, although the £32 bill was a little beyond my £20 (idiotic) budget. I am now armed with loads of weird, new ingredients that I haven't got a clue how to use. Marvellous.
Deciding not to bother with the time consuming and near certain disappointment of an ill-prepared sunday roast, I set a strict challenge to cook something remotely edible and clean up in half an hour. I did it and have definitely eaten much, much worse. Other than my polenta turning out a little sweaty and salty it was really rather good considering the fact that I really am shit in the kitchen.
Polenta fried with garlic and fresh rosemary
Tofu chunks with onion, garlic, turmeric, paprika, chilli powder, green beans, carrot, cabbage and kale.
Now, talking of shitting in the kitchen...

Although it's too much information for a blog, I have to say it and if you knew me in the real world, I'd only say it to your face anyway... I've got a brand new style of poo. It has not learnt to arrange itself [as above] like a knitted walnut whip just yet but it's totally changing and this is only day four! Should I be alarmed?! How do I know if it's a really good one? The customary google hunt offered many sites including this
but my favourite was this one:
One last thing for Day Four. Would you believe it but accompanying the second pic of the really, turdesque looking walnut whip was a vegan recipe for... you guessed it... a huge walnut whip - YEEEAAAHHH! It's a sign! I promise to make one next week when I continue to avoid the rest of my life!
