Lovers of fine vegetarian food. If we're not cooking or eating it, we're reading, talking or writing about it. Messy eaters, we wear our food with pride! Faithful servants of feline overlords.

You're joking." Sorry GC, we're not. Mme's spent half the night worrying. Still losing weight despite eating for Wales, up for multi-tooth extraction, plus more bloods, today and his issues make anaesthetic tricky🤞🤞05 Oct 2026 06:28 +0000at://did:plc:nb5evnkn6gjj2btbsevflfuh/app.bsky.feed.post/3mx4byv7jpc2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/teamnotleafy.bsky.social/post/3mwyfzx3pac2eGreat.

As quietly competent and fresh flavoured as ever.

Drat, he's lost more weight, despite the advised upping food trial (which he was very happy with).
