Double Cream.

I have a JL card, love the coffee and cake!

I will have to buy extra thick double cream in future, as I like to spoon out cream rather than pour.
I had some (lots) of cream on porridge the other day, it was
Super delicious!

No offers at Peter Jones - obviously I don't look in need of a cake!

Dumped my used Nespresso pods, had a mooch around, and bought Brabantia bin bags ..... I used to lead quite an exciting life, don't know what happened!

I think I'll put a couple of drops of vanilla into this cream I've in the fridge.
From now on I'll whip smaller amounts at one time.
Or eat more of it

Brabantia bin bags are so worth it, aren’t they?
Like double cream

I love cream. In coffee☕ in my once a week cake treat ? on porridge ? and hot chocolate ?? and indeed, in some soups ??...just a swirl ?

Un-recyclable Nespresso pods, un-recyclable bin bags. Pfft.
What a hypocrite.

You can't get proper double cream here down under. Just "thickened" cream. Not the same! I was more upset though, when I found Bramley apples don't exist here! People use Granny Smiths for any cooked apple recipe. Most upsetting.
So my Sunday special of a family apple crumble with double cream (our treat of the week back in the UK) has bitten the dust.
And no more "proper" applesauce with pork!
Sorry for hijacking cream thread with my cooking apple woes ?

What a hypocrite

GabriellaG54 I think you're mixing me up with someone else.

I have to watch cholesterol and sugar so cream is an occasional treat with dessert. I so look forward to having it on my porridge next morning.

Gosh!
Where did that come from?
I don’t use nespresso things but I understood that the pods are in fact recyclable.

As for Brabantia bin bags, the point about them is that because they are thicker and stronger, they never split, so you don’t get the contents of the bin bag leaking into your bin.
This means that the actual bin needs less cleaning = less use of cleaning sprays.

Is it possible to buy bin bags that biodegrade when they go to landfill? I’ve never seen any.

What I have found is that compost caddy liners which claim to be biodegradable don’t actually biodegrade in the compost bin and appear apparently unchanged at the bottom of the bin, so I have given up using them.

Yes Jane there are claims about certain bags being biodegradable but from what I know they're not truly biodegradable just break up into tiny pieces, but they're still there!

If someone has a better solution do please let me know!

riverwalk my latest issue of The Garden (RHS magazine) came wrapped up not in plastic as usual, but in an envelope which they claimed was made of potato starch & therefore compostable.
I’ve put it to the test
I doubt it would be strong enough for bin liners but I’m a glass half full person and tend to the view that technology might just rescue us from the effects of global warming.
