u/Eren-Alter-Ego

My niece has recently gone to Uni and it's her birthday soon. She's always helped cook at home, but now she's cooking just for herself I want to get her a care package of things to experiment with.

So far I have

Emma Basic Japanese Curry Cubes.

Chinese crushed Chilli Oil.

Some fun ramen packets.

Sostrene Grene egg salt and vegetable seasoning.

Tata Satay seasoning and the coconut cream to go with it.

Crispy Garlic

Gochugang Chilli Paste.

Avocado flavour crisps.

Would love some other ideas. Needs to be purchased online. Preferably nothing too heavy.

After living in a city in the UK for most of my life, I moved out to a rural area and needed to learn to drive... Took me ages to find an instructor who worked for me, I was doing amazingly well and now here I am, test on Monday and my brain is mush. Can't remember anything, even if I can remember it, I can't put it into action.

Definitely can't tell my sweet middle aged Indian instructor that I'm horribly perimenopausal... He's totally baffled as to why I'm suddenly so sh*te!!!

Have pretty much resigned myself to failing and hoping my HRT is sorted (currently 4 weeks in) when my next test comes round...

It's just so frustrating to be so close and then get stabbed in the back by your own hormones 😑
