   Pray tell me the minutia of your life.

   I ate:

   - Lettuce + Home made olive oil and vinaigrette pepper dressing.
   - This quinoa recipe, only using red peppers and a dash of curry powder and sweet red peppers to make it more suitable to my husbands dead taste buds (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/07/health/nutrition/07recipehealth.html)
   - Mixed black berries, rasberries, and blueberries with home made vanilla whipped cream
   - Two glasses of white wine, a pinot gris well chilled.

   Good summer food!

   Et vous?

   I'm too poor to eat so mostly like... I had a carrot. And some peanut butter. It wuz all natural peanut butter!

   oh and some water that i drank frum a rad bullet-shaped metal container that I found in a park a few days ago... i washed it really good so no worries. I was drinking water out of those plastic bottles, right, I saved them and used them cuz I liked the sucky tops but fuck... apparently that plastic totally causes cancer!

   fresh salmon filet, broiled, topped with aioli and panko, a trace of sriracha, with some whole wheat broad noodles tossed with some grated celtic cheddar. Also some pinot. Reasonably good, but oh the aftermath of dishes and pans.... :(
   .....nook, no on those sucky bottles, 'specially reused.... My son lectures me on the outgassing chems. Use the bullet shaped deal and lose the plastic.

   Last night it was my own recipe of morrocan spiced mushrooms, capsicum and onion on rice.
   The night before it was home-made pumpkin, sweet potato and potato soup.
   Tonight it will be vegetarian (bean) tacos with lettuce, avocado and tomato :)
   Sometime soon, maybe tomorrow night, it will be cauliflower and beetroot soup (pink soup anyone ?)

   It's the beginning of winter here, so lots of soup to be had !

    Siri, it's lunchtime here and I have coffee....let's see....also a year old tin of altoids in my desk. You are cruel! That looks incredible. Shifty is picky-picky. ;-) Ainsley, hopefully you are not where I am, it's been foggy for weeks. The central coast "summer". There is an in-n-out just across the way and I've never been, but the office always has a lunchtime exodus over there. Must be something they put in the fry oil.....

    Garden is getting crazy full, so I'm going to make strawberry rhubarb jam this weekend. The strawberry ice cream mixture is in the fridge, will be made by the weekend as well.

    Pops is making rhubarb wine, it's one of my favorite wines he makes, and he just whipped up a batch of horseradish sauce. I am going to be so happy when I visit home next, I will get the honey from my grumps (yup in retirement he became a beekeeper, even has some wonky NASA page about it,) and I'll get my wine and 'radish sauce from my pops. Hopefully this time around I can give them Jam, if I don't mess it up somehow.

    ^^ ..Siri, these are words not much worth knowing for the most part! Altoids are a British mint that have the ability to remain edible for years in a glove box or desk drawer. Panko is just extra crunchy prepared breadcrumbs and sriracha is a thai hot sauce that's just a little different from tabasco for example, perhaps garlicky. Shifty would no doubt prefer his salmon without it!

    Siri, that looks and sounds delicious, could you give me the recipe? Especially interested in the rice-balls :B

    with pleasure !
    riceballs : two cups of leftover rice of the sticky kind, throw in 1 egg yolk, 3 tablespoons of flour, 50 g grated cheese, green fresh herbs, pepper and salt. this may seem very dry but it has to be, then you roll balls with this blend and sweep them through the beaten egg white, and through fine crumbs (paneermeel ;), and then deepfry them.
    curry : stirfry 3 red onions in some oil, season with lots of mild currypowder, add 1/2 kg of diced carrots, after 10 min. add the mange-touts, meanwhile season and fry the diced tofu, add to the pot and pour over a small tin of soy cream, finally add the mango and of course all the herbs to your taste. Enjoy

    All this food looks and sounds so yummy!! The riceballs sound delicious, siri!! I may have to try those. Tonight we're having scrambled eggs with "soyrizo" (a veggie version of chorizo) and buttered brussels sprouts. Yesterday I had a Morningstar Farms biscuit stuffed with cheese, egg, and veggie sausage and mashed sweet potatoes with some cashews and blackberries on the side. Tomorrow the husband is bringing his sister's son out here to grill some steaks and me a veggie burger or something. It's summer - everyone's grillin'.

    Oh yay, a food thread! Damn that I missed it until now.

    I love recipes and ‘experimenting’ with food, mostly it turns out inedible, but then sometimes I invent something nice, like peanut butter and mustard sandwiches. There are too many awesome things mentioned here I want to try, but I think mango curry is first on the list!

    Last night I had a veggie lasagne, courgette, pepper, butternut squash and onion in a tomato sauce with a bit of basil and garlic, then the customary white sauce and pasta.

    For lunch, (in about half an hour, here) I’m planning to see what I can salvage off the salad and lettuce plants that have gone to seed. I’m feeling lethargic and icky so I’ll just have a plate of leaves. Oh, and maybe see if the peas are ready for mange tou (however it’s spelt) yet. And some green tea.

    ah Liberty, phew, I was already worrying about you, a food thread and you not in it ;)

    Your lasagne is on for thursday - where I live, the ministery of health tries to make thursday a national veggie day (still a long way to go though...)

    Haven't had dinner yet, but I ate Swedish pancakes this morning... Though I had no Lingonberry spread, so I settled for blueberry jam.
    Yesterday though, for dinner I had more Swedish food for some reason. I had a Swedish Coffee Roll, with something I can't remember that had salmon, two vegetable patties, carrots, and ribs.

    Just to even things out, tonights dinner is not too good...a while back I froze some lentil curry so I could have kinda 'ready meal' things (eveyone's allowed to be lazy sometimes, okay?) and EWW EWW EWW. It doesn't look apatizing :( The water has seperated out and everything else looks a lot like compost.
    I shall leave it at that.
