Not beans

On the look out for vegan recipes, I came across this recipe for Spinach Pici Pasta
https://www.cilantroandcitronella.com/spinach-pici-pasta/

Made them yesterday but rather than the vegetables in the recipe, I made a vegan pesto (substituting almonds for pine nuts, as had run out).

The pici were fun and easy to make. And look brilliant. But despite cooking for several minutes more than the 5 indicated, they were a little chewy and tough.

Just had an appointment re contact lenses. Advised currently not suitable for my purposes. But apparently later in the year, there may be a new product which is currently undergoing trials.

Told Mr B we’d meet at 12. Meant 11. So wasting time in Boscombe. Lidl, Aldi and Primark will keep me amused. Then meeting a friend later in Southbourne. Suddenly got chilly, sunny but lots of small clouds too.
