RE: Freecycle and similar websites - Small chilli - 13-10-2023
Veggie can you point me in the direction of the links you put up for soaps from eBay. I thought it was this thread, but I can’t find it. I know it was a couple of years ago!
RE: Freecycle and similar websites - Veggie - 13-10-2023
Not this thread but one that you started.
https://gardenandgossip.org/showthread.php?tid=940&page=9&highlight=offcutsthe link in that thread is out of date - it was this one
https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/cheelsoapsofdistinction
Don't buy these from https://madaboutnature.uk/products/1kg-handmade-soap-odds-suds-handmade-soap-offcuts-with-soap-bag-palm-oil-free-plastic-free-uk-soap-cold-process-soap?variant=34469942591621
They were very small scraps.

The one I am using just now smells of ginger and its one of the better ones.

That’s them. Thank you. They’ve been very good. Will definitely get some more. I’ll be getting one of the plantable cards as well for my friends wedding at the end of the month.

IN came an electric Popcorn maker, an empty wooden wine box (for 3 bottles so divided into 3 compartments - now holding herb tea bags) and a collection of veg seeds https://treesbeesandseeds.com/ minus 3 packets. Don't be tempted to buy it unless you don't need many seeds of each veg eg 5 courgette seeds, 10 chard, the most generous are carrots x 100 and celery x 100.
RE: Freecycle and similar websites - Veggie - 16-10-2023
IN came a sourdough loaf and some focaccia smelling strongly of garlic. I was forced to eat some as soon as I got home.

It's such a hard life, isn't it Veggie.
RE: Freecycle and similar websites - Veggie - 18-10-2023
IN today came a washing up bowl with a built-in drainer (the second one I've acquired). I want one to leave at the veg end of the garden to wash veg before I bring it back to the house. Its also useful in the kitchen because you can peel your spuds, or whatever, in the bowl and drain off the water without tipping up the bowl. https://www.josephjoseph.com/collections/washing-up-bowls
Also IN came a couple of large candles.

Went to the £5 x 2 pantry today - pork chops, Quorn sausage rolls, mozzarella and tomato pasta, yogurt, spring rolls, potatoes, parsnips, swede, mushrooms, grapes, mangoes, bread, rolls, crisps, sparkling water, Earl Grey tea bags, chilli & lime flavoured edamame soya beans, peanuts, almonds and cashew nuts (sound interesting), Haribo sweets for trick or treat
an enormous chocolate cake (serves 15 - was £15) and some cupcakes. Probably more but I can't remember it all. Should keep us fed for a few days and keep me away from the supermarket!I knew there was more - Hummus, lettuce, cucumbers, handwash and toothpaste!
