  • 2-3 years until the viruses build up and kill them. They winter over just fine if you mulch them, or let Mother Nature do the mulching. Also, by the end of 2 years, all the local slugs & snails have them logged on their google maps so fruit quantity drops off dramatically unless you feel like being snailicidal.

  • Never ever eaten one. So I don't know. Judging by the packaging, it's not something I would spend money on.

  • Interesting thing just happened. I was in the middle of writing a reply, but the time stamp said that I had responded 5 minutes ago. Yes, it was the time stamp for that reply. I checked.
    This means that the DT is actually a portal that allows time travel into the future. Albeit not very much future. Not enough for stock market speculation, dammit. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

  • Favorite dessert is, well, dessert. With the caveat that I'm not all that fond of coconut as a texture or flavour. So any dessert that does not contain coconut is a contender for favorite. I suspect the real answer is whatever dessert I am eating at the time.

  • The unsung hero of cbf food is a chicken thigh fillet immersed in baked beans and bubbled up in the microwave. Chopping optional. Serve on rice or toast or spud or just by itself. Add veg and/or other flavorings like hot sauce if feeling a little less cbf.

    New dish - salmon stuffed hash browns

    Just came back from brunch with a friend - she'd cooked a very nice variation on hashbrowns. Thinnish layer of mashed spud in a lined lamington tray, layer of smoked salmon, another layer of mashed spud. Then chilled, cut in sections, breaded and fried. End result was a hash brown with a distinct layer of fish in the middle. She served these with a poached egg on top and a side of avocado salsa. Very nice indeed and a good brunch dish.
