Mental health issues make it super hard to look after myself. I try to batch cook when I'm feeling well, but the best trick I've learned is a sheet pan meal. All I have to do is chuck veg and some meat on a tray, some spices and seasoning, then bake for however long it's needed. Sometimes…Â
The one that always sticks with me is from Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt - "I learned that anyone can withstand just about anything for 10 seconds, and when that 10 seconds is up, you start on a new 10 seconds". I can relate so much, and it's got me through some tough stuff.
We have a work WhatsApp group for my team. It's mostly used to notify each other if we're running late but occasionally for other more fun things too. I meant to send a message saying 'I have a cunning plan', and unfortunately 'cunning' was changed to something much worse. My boss…Â

Sweet potato (1 med/large)
1 egg
Sauce:
Punnet cherry tomatoes (I used sweet plum)
1/2 onion
Squeeze tomato puree
Mixed herbs, S&P…Â
A rumour went round our A-level class that a girl had been fingered by her boyfriend during art class, in the art classroom. There was one stool we all studiously avoided sitting on...
