          @thegiddystitcher @sortofblue I don’t want to gang up on you but I also think sticking needles in tofu is the best use of it 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

              Don’t apologise, I’m That Person in a whole host of subjects, lol. As good as that recipe looks (the photos are fantastic), I’d probably try it with chicken breast instead, only I don’t know what agave syrup is or if I could find it in a kiwi supermarket.

    Not sure how that happened but may it rest in floss, and let it find the softest fabrics in the needle afterlife.
