MacKenzie Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 My garden work is just about done for a while and I celebrated with a KK rotisserie cook. Cornish hen was on the menu as well as macaroni salad. 1 hour @400F, I was expecting more colour but the Thermpen said it's done. Plated. 10
Bruce Pearson Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 Looks deeeelicious Mac. I’m curious what have you planted in your garden? 1
tekobo Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 That looks great Mac. I was just about to make myself a kale smoothie. Will stick with the plan but lunch is now very much on my mind!! 1
MacKenzie Posted June 14, 2018 Author Report Posted June 14, 2018 Thanks, everyone. Bruce, I will get some garden pixs and do a post of it. tekobo, I know it would be hard to pass up on a kale smoothie, or would it 1 1
Bruce Pearson Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 Tekobo! A kale smoothie? That sounds about as appetizing as a Vegemite sandwich LOL 2
Bruce Pearson Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 It would probably taste better if you warmed it up in your KK 1

That sounds about as appetizing as a Vegemite sandwich LOL I'm growing a lot of kale this year. I read that the nutrient value reduces relatively quickly after picking so I thought I would do the greenhouse to smoothie maker to tummy in minutes test. Whizzed up a pile of kale, a pear and a lime. It was really tasty for something that is so good for you! That has broken my duck and I am now going to make the most of my crop by having a smoothie at least every other day. 2 1
jonj Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 Okay, "broken my duck". I had to look that one up. This site is doing wonders for my vocabulary... chooks and snags and ducks, oh my. 2 3
Pequod Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 Yes. "Broken my duck" is definitely going in my vocabulary. I've already incorporated some Aussie with chook, roadkill, snags, arvo. Now I just need to learn English. 1 1
tekobo Posted June 14, 2018 Report Posted June 14, 2018 Breaking one's duck on a thread about a chook feels appropriate. Twice I brought home armfuls of kale from the allotment and twice I never quite got around to making that smoothie. I am not that good at incorporating veg into my diet so I am hopeful that getting into the habit of whizzing and drinking will mean I use my crops AND "eat" better at the same time. 2

As long as we're all learning dialects..."whizzing" in "American" generally means something different from what you intended, and usually follows drinking. 1 1 1

Ahh. American dialect is interesting. Suffice to say, I won't be searching for or using that word again! 1

tony b Posted June 17, 2018 Report Posted June 17, 2018 Don't be looking for me to "break my duck" with any kale smoothies in my lifetime! 1 2 1
