As for the events of the past in general are concerned, particularly events of the childhood days, one may not remember the routine day to day events. However, there are certain events that get etched in memory so much so that these keep on rewinding in your mind time and again. We enjoy relishing those moments as we do watching particular favourite moments of a repeat telecast.
I must have been 6 to 7 years old then. My father was working in the forest department. For sometime he was deployed deep inside the jungle in the tribal district of Koraput, Odisha. Usually whenever he was deployed in remote locations we used to stay back in our native place. But this time he took us – me, my elder sister and my mother – along.
Our dwelling was a huge cottage in the middle of the jungle. Of course, some area surrounding the cottage were cleared of vegetation to avoid jungle fire catching up. it was a single row cottage with seven to eight rooms. While, we occupied three to four rooms, some rooms were used as stores and in one room a few of my father's subordinates stayed. The nearest human dwelling was a tribal village, perhaps two to three kilometers away.
One day it so happened that I got upset. I do not remember the reason. I threatened my mother that I would go away inside the jungle never to return. My mother laughed. My sister challenged me and said, "Go. Who bothers". But, they did not know I meant what I had said.
My father was away on his project site. After some time my mother and sister got busy with their chores. Slowly I sneaked out and ran towards the jungle.
Of course I took the temporary muddy road made for the trucks to ferry jungle products. In my concern not to be tracked I had run so much that I now lost track of where I was. When I realized this, I panicked. But, then I heard a familiar voice following me – "Baba, Baba. Stop". It was a worker at my father's project. Frequently he came to meet with father at our cottage. Whenever he came he made jokes at me and tried to be friendly. Suddenly, at the sight of a familiar face, panic feelings gave way and I became adamant again.
"No I would not" I shouted. "I do not want to go back to that house again", I said and started running again, this time into the wild growth, leaving the muddy jungle road.
The worker was a robust tribal man form a nearby village and I do not remember his name. I could not outrun him. He came near me and caught hold of my hand. I tried to wriggle out.
"Listen, Baba" he said, "I will not take you to your house. We will go to my village. Come first see my house. If you do not like it,I will bring you here and leave you".
I consented and he lifted my on to his shoulders. For the entire journey of two to three kilometers I rode on his shoulders. On the way, he picked of wild fruits and gave me to eat. We reached his village, a small village of about twelve to thirteen houses. His house was a single room hut at the middle of the village. His wife and son welcomed me. His son was almost of my age. His wife offered me a kind of sweet made of millet and jaggery.
What followed afterwards was a full day of fun, much more thrilling than the kind of fun you get in a modern amusement park. First he took me and his son to a nearby water body for angling. We played Tarzan. There were huge swings made out of the roots of the banyan tree. Every hour I was given some special delicious fruit, root or preparation to eat. We also enjoyed water sports. His son tried to teach me swimming.
But then, towards the evening I remembered my mother and started crying. He realized that I was ready to return to my source. Immediately he lifted me on to his shoulders and carried me back home. He was so fast in his walk that we reached our cottage within no time. But my mother gave no reaction. She taunted me, " Why have you come back?"
It was only later that I came to know, the tribal man was deployed by my mother to take care of any eventuality, i.e in case I actually ran away.
I thought my mother would not know and I would surprise and shock her by running away. But I was so wrong. Especially about a mother's safety concerns for her children.

The possibility of growing the (GaAs)1–x–y(Ge2)x(ZnSe)y alloy on GaAs substrates by the method of liquid-phase epitaxy from a tin solution–melt is shown. X-ray diffraction shows that the grown film is single-crystal with the (100) orientation and has the sphalerite structure. The crystal-lattice parameter of the film is af = 0.56697 nm. The features of the spectral dependence of the photosensitivity are caused by the formation of various complexes of charged components. It is established that the I–V characteristic of such structures is described by the exponential dependence I = I0exp(qV/ckT) at low voltages (no higher than 0.4 V) and by the power dependence J ~ Vα, where the exponent α varies with increasing voltage at high voltages (V > 0.5 V). The results are treated within the framework of the theory of the drift mechanism of current transfer taking into account the possibility of the exchange of free carriers within the recombination complex. © 2016, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.

did you get my text message?
So turns out that the muscle pain I complained about earlier in the week is in fact NOT Punkin's fault. So I'd just like to make a formal apology to him for that. The pain actually got so bad on Thursday afternoon/night that I was crying making dinner and driving home. I almost couldn't walk because the bottoms of my feet and my calves were tight and tender and sore. It felt like all of my muscles were in big knots all over my body. I had to use two hands to shift my car, which took multiple attempts to start because I couldn't turn the key far enough.
Friday morning started out much better. Still painful, but not immobilizing. By the afternoon it was in full force again. And my tongue was swollen. So my mom and I enjoyed the graces of the emergency room during my respite hours Friday night.
I mentioned to them repeatedly that my doctor had doubled my dose of anti-depressant a little over a week before. I also told them about the sinus infection and the fever. And my mom made me tell them that I fainted.
So three vials of blood and one CT scan later, they know nothing. They assume it is a virus unless one last test (which takes 24 hours) comes back showing something about my muscles being metabolized too quickly or something I don't know. So I feel silly going in about a (probably) virus, but frustrated because there's nothing I can do. The doctor says muscle pain is not a side effect of my meds. So I go home and go to sleep.
Saturday I am feeling much better and continue to feel better all day. I drink a little too much and sleep at my mom and dad's. (More on that later.) Sunday morning I realize I haven't taken my meds in two days. So I take them. By early Sunday afternoon the pain and hot flashes and yucky tummy are back. Along with a slightly too-big tongue. I call the pharmacist. He thinks I'm overdosing on meds. Which is what pretty much everyone except the doctors thought. So hundreds of dollars and one really cool and extremely relaxing CT scan later, it's still really hard to type, but I think I know why.
So back to Saturday -- Saturday night Oma and Opa had a fire in their fire pit and we invited some frienders over. A certain friend just entered 2007 by adding text messaging to his cell phone plan. Let me just say that at one point there were 5 phones out, all texting each other ingenious little messages across the fire. (You rock my world, too, Lola.) It was beyond ridiculous. The only thing more ridiculous was when I grabbed a martini glass half as big as Punkin and drank my oh so tasty Mountain Dew and raspberry vodka out of it. (I know, eww. The Tall Guy always has really good ideas like that for me. Funny how he didn't make one for himself.) I was really just trying to be silly. Cause why would you even MAKE a glass that big? I got it from this girl.....and.......searching for something nice to say............she had a beautiful leather couch in her dorm room. She was from Texas, so I always thought it was sort of cliche that the Texas girl gave me a giant martini glass. All in all, the evening was legendary.

Your parents must be so proud of you.

I guess if I visited more often, David would not consider me a stranger or oompa or whatever you call him.
Hope your tongue gets to feeling better.
By the way, the coffee was real good.

So....if one thinks they are ODing on a medication, I would hope that one would not continue to use said medication at said dosage. But...you probably still are, aren't you?

I can't believe doctors are so irresponsible. I mean, I CAN, but I'm really mad and angry, although that doesn't do any good, so mostly I'm just glad that it is getting figured out (yes?) and maybe it's not that you needed your dosage upped so much but a new medicine? What do you think? How are you doing now?

Now before the Oaken Throne
A servant comes but not alone
His all he's given his heart he's shown
By grace of Theiadora
Let the Western Kingdom stand and
Greet the host with banners grand
Their service and splendor grace the land
Sveinn and Theiadora come
Sveinn and Theiadora
Lady of the wild wolf tamed
Whose graceful hand has won wordfame
A weaver with whom none can contend
She learned it all at the side of Sveinn
Howl to the moon in the sky
For this pair of wolves we have been blessed by
The service and art none can deny of
Sveinn and Theiadora

I stayed here because I had a wake to attend. The Hilton and Hampton were fully booked, so I figured I would go to the Comfort Inn. First, the rooms are BEYOND small. If there had been 2 people in my room, there would have been NO room. Second, I did not have 1 waste paper basket in my room. Third, the TV was definitely not HD. Four, there was a dead fly on the tray where the cups were. Five, Very little parking. Six, one of the towels left for me in the room was frayed from bleach (time to use it as a drying cloth for a car). Seven, they actually wanted 25c per minute in the business center to go online. I stay at Hiltons and Marriotts and Hyatts and do not get charged. The reason why it got 1 star.....UUMMM??? the orange juice was cold at the breakfast bar.

Hi Dudes,
How did your writing journey start? My writing journey started because I was alone and broke, living on a farm with no car, no public transport and no phone - so no interruptions. Hey, that is soo good for thinking - and those thoughts just took off and created another world where Prince Jed - and many others - had lots of adventures.
Being able to move whole blocks of text around the screen instead of having tiny handwriting going up the edges of the page with arrows to show where they were meant to go was something else.
Finally I got hooked up to the Internet and found out ways and means to make money with my writing. So even when stories were rejected I still had some kind of income. I had started on the rocky road to becoming a freelance writer. Writing articles is not nearly as much fun as writing fiction, but it meant the added satisfaction of money in my bank account.
Why not share your writing journey in the comments box?
Till later, dudes

* 1 If Moon is strong.
* 2 Mercury (if not afflicted or in malefic company).
Among these planets Moon belongs to a separate category. If the Moon is strong all Yogas bear full fruit. A weak moon is incapable of bestowing even other planetary yogas fully and renders the yogas useless. Remember that everything has to happen through the Moon (the Mind) first before reaching a concrete level for enjoyment.
Though Rahu and Ketu are generally considered Malefic, one should remember that as Chaya grahas (shadow planets) they take on the qualities of the graha conjunct or aspecting or even the lord of the house in which they are posited.
Conditional: Rahu and Ketu. If these planets are situated with a Benefic - they will have a benefic influence and vice versa for malefics.

Roundups at internet sites like TheSweethome.com and TheKitchn.com that also include testing were also very informative. Last, we analyzed tens of thousands of operator reviews published at web sites such as for instance Amazon.com and WilliamsSonoma.com to see how most of these knives perform and persevere in the actual world.
It's always an in depth call between Wusthof and Victorinox in regards to the best knives and this update is not any exception, therefore you'll find those two brands in most categories. But we also name a lot of runners up, like Kyocera, International, Mac, Rada, OXO and Mercer. No matter the method that you cut it, these are all great knives.
Also known as a cook's knife, here is the one to select when you can only have one kitchen knife. Experts claim a chef's knife can handle most home projects all by itself. Since this knife is the kitchen workhorse, it's crucial to find the one that feels great in your hand, with the best fat and harmony and a cushty handle. It ought to be sharp enough to disjoint a chicken or thinly slice a tomato without smashing it. While 8-inches is the most common measurement, if you have smaller or bigger hands, you may well be more comfortable with a 6- or -10-in chef's knife instead.

Knives are made often from solid or placed metal Forged knives are created from one piece of steel that's heated and designed applying a sort or press. Stamped knives are virtually "stamped" in one bigger piece of metal. It used to be certain that forged knives were higher quality, but that is no longer true. Today, stamped knives are also manufactured to a quite high quality common that is nearly indistinguishable from forged knives. In reality, many cooks prefer stamped knives because they're light and more versatile, and they tend to put on their side more than smoother, forged knives. Stamped knives are also much less expensive than forged ones.
Even though best knives will stvay sharp for a long time, most could eventually need to be sharpened. If that's anything you'd like to battle at home, see our split report on knife sharpeners. However, if you think that could be above your degree of knowledge, you'll find an area or mail-order qualified to complete the sharpening for you.

The Ugly Duckling here have always been the boxes continuously variable transmission the Ford CVT. On paper are undoubtedly the best option although in the past were not satisfactory driving and were protagonists of reliability problems many manufacturers are betting on developing these transmissions as a way to reduce consumption. Audi however the CVT left side.
Ford is now being staked who return to incorporate this technology into their vehicles despite not having reaped good results in previous attempts. The manufacturer recognizes that these gearboxes are getting better and that reduce consumption significantly. Was he thinking introduce engines with little torque. For powerful models Ford already has some effective automatic PowerShift and converter.
Currently manufacturers like Nissan Honda Subaru and Toyota are the most bets on this technology while Audi CVT left side. On paper a CVT box is the best solution because it allows infinite relationships between the shortest and the longest possible. So the engine can always rotate in the optimal regime maximizing the available torque and reducing consumption. The main problem of these changes is pleased to use. More and more manufacturers during acceleration gear changes staggered to avoid that unpleasant feeling laps up engine and ringing incessantly like a vespino is involved. for the other reviews about the newest cars visit here.

I've had great fun over the last few weeks planting seed and watching them come up. I love the fact that more and more now it is possible to buy organic seed. This means that not only are my plants grown organically, but they are organic right from the beginning. I would urge everyone to support the seed suppliers who sell organic seed. There are many small suppliers and bigger suppliers who are now sourcing and selling Organic Seeds (see the list at the end of the article). Read more
Dill, Anethum graveolens, is a delightful tall annual herb that grows to about 1 m from a taproot, with a single stem and many feathery blue-green leaves and branches. These are topped by groups of umbrella-shaped flower heads made up of small yellow flowers. The flowers are followed by flat, oval, brown seeds, which self-sow readily if left on the plant. Dill is probably one of the oldest medicinal herbs. It was used by the Egyptians before 3000 BC. The name dill is found in several old European languages, reflecting its widespread use, but its derivation is unclear. In medieval times, dill developed a reputation for protecting anyone who carried it against witches. It was a common ingredient in potions and spells and English country brides would wear a sprig of dill on their wedding day, while in Germany, a bride would put dill and salt in her shoes to bring her good luck. By the beginning of the seventeenth century dill was grown in many countries all over the world because it was known as 'a gallant expeller of wind'. Read more
Beans are a very rewarding crop and relatively easy to grow. I love them because they don't take up much space but within a few weeks you can harvest an abundance of crisp, flavoursome beans. Soak seeds overnight to increase the speed of germination. Just put the seeds you want to plant into a bowl and cover with water. The next morning, water the soil where you are going to put the beans and plant seeds two at a time pushing them about 4cm into the soil. I always plant two because often one will not grow. Cover with soil but don't water as the soil and the seeds are already wet. If you don't soak the seeds then you will need to water. Leave about 20cm between plants if they are dwarf forms, or 15cm if they are climbers.
Last weekend saw a celebration of old cultivars and varieties of both fruit and vegetables. At Diggers Heronswood, Dromana it has been the Harvest Festival Weekend with a really beautiful array of pumpkins and squashes, garlic for sale and tomatoes to taste. Nearly all of these are heirloom or open pollinated varieties that are so important both for our gardening history and our future. Heirloom and heritage varieties are an integral part of organic gardening, many are the result of selective breeding over numerous generations so that they show special characteristics.

Smoothies for Vata Dosha in Summer
Smoothies for Vata Dosha in Summer: Eating with the Seasons Smoothies for Vata Dosha in Summer is part two of http://bodymindwellnesscenter.com/smoothies-for-vata-dosha/ . In Ayurveda we eat with the seasons, so you can have more raw in Summer when Pitta is elevated in everyone, than in cold or rainy weather such as the monsoon season in India or Winter anywhere. But if you are Vata dominant, and even for everyone's digestion, what you should never put in your smoothie is ice. Let your smoothie be cool, not freezing cold. Does blending the raw fruit or veggies make it less elevating to...Read More
Ayurvedic Kitchari

Kitchari is a Sattvic, light, easy-to-digest, cleansing, detoxifying food that is excellent once a week, at the change of seasons, or any time you feel like giving your digestive system a break. It is also just a normal one-pot-dish you can have for dinner. What is Sattva and What Are Sattvic Foods? Sattvic foods, or more exactly, a Sattvic diet, is a diet that is light and easy to digest and that aids a "spiritual" lifestyle whose goal is "purity, wholesomeness, and virtue." Sattivc foods are fresh and full of prana, nutrient dense, keep Agni stimulated,...Read More

Winter Storage in Chinese Medicine Winter is the season in ancient Chinese philosophy associated with storage, when the essences of the previous year are distilled into wisdom. Not surprisingly, even in European literature and poetry, winter, then, is a metaphor for old age, if is the final season in the cycle of birth and death. The goal of life is wisdom, the goal of the agricultural year is to...Read More
Ayurvedic Summer Cabbage Salad with Beet and Onion
Ayurvedic Summer Cabbage Salad with Beet and Onion I am a huge fan of cabbage salad. When I was a strict vegetarian it must have been its hearty quality and chewy texture that appealed. Now that I am an omnivore, I value cabbage both for its delicious, slightly sweet taste, and for its high fiber low calorie ratio. Its a great balance for the heavy quality of meat. That's why historically cole slaw pairs with deli sandwiches or hamburgers, and sauerkraut pairs with sausages and hot dogs. Raw Sauerkraut, which is a cinch to make at home, and ridiculously expensive...Read More

Ayurvedic Winter Spice Churna
Ayurvedic Winter Spice Churna are "masalas" (spice mixtures) used to boost immunity by improving digestion and stimulating Agni digestive fire. They are used year round, but can be especially good in Winter and also for Ama/toxin accumulation. They can be tailored to all three doshas, Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. The following Ayurvedic winter spice churna is a tri-doshic mix of spices, suitable for Winter, but that will not aggravate any one dosha and pacifies them all, because it is a mix of bitter, pungent, and sweet spices. Someone with a strong Pitta elevation with symptoms of burning in the...Read More
Diet and Nutrition in Chinese Medicine: Wakame Sea Veggie to Nourish Kidney Yin and Cleanse Lymphatics

Energetically deepest because the Kidneys are the root of all Yin and Yang in the body, and as such governs growth and development from conception, but also reproduction after puberty. Grow, development, and reproduction are very deep foundational aspects of the body's energy, and in the case of reproduction this means that the Kidney's Qi...Read More

Smoothies for Vata Dosha
Smoothies for Vata Dosha–Part One A reader had this comment recently about Smoothies for Vata Dosha, after reading this article about Raw Veggies or Salad for a Vatta Dominant Person. Are Smoothies Better than Juicing for Vata Dosha? "I see that the key here is to balance out the combination of ingredients so that the salad has the soothing and grounding properties. For a Vatta DOSHA would you recommend that instead of juicing, taking blended raw fruits and veggies which include all of the fiber and additional water? I'd like to add more raw into my diet and am...Read More
Pacifying Kapha: Baked or Roasted Curried Cauliflower and Kabocha Squash
Roasted or broiled vegetables are excellent for pacifying Kapha, whether for Kapha dominant types, or for the other doshas during Kapha season, as they are light, dry, and retain the strongly warming fire Qi of the oven or barbecue. The general theme for Kapha is to protect it from its natural tendency to accumulate fat and fluid by reducing all heavy foods like wheat, dairy, meats, and fats, while increasing naturally cleansing vegetables as much as possible, and eating meats with vegetables, not grains, and grains with vegetables, not meats. The best grains for Kapha are the gluten free...Read More
The Nature of Vata Dosha and How to Pacify It
The way to prepare dishes that pacify Vata Dosha is to first understand what Vatta embodies. Vata dosha is the manifestation of Air and Space in our human bodies. Air and Space in its pure state is cold and dry. Air only becomes warm due to the effects of fire from the sun or other stars, and on earth from the fire of the sun or volcanic activity, whether above or below ground (hot springs). Air is naturally dry, and only becomes moist when it carries molecules of water in it, in fact, key point, notice that the air...Read More
Using Spices in Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine to Protect Your Digestive Fire in Summer
In summer we sweat and our yang energy or heat keeps getting dispersed and exhausted. On freezing cold days you feel cold, but on boiling hot days you sweat and become exhausted. In winter in every culture people eat heavy high-calorie foods, but in summer switch to lighter food. That is in part because our digestive fire weakens in summer because the yang is at the surface.Conversely, in summer, because it is so hot, we eat lots of cooling juicy food like fruit and more raw food. Raw food is cooling, because your body has to provide the fire...Read More
Healthy Summer Fruit Tart
A Healthy Summer Fruit Tart is a nutrient dense food full of fiber, vitamins, minerals, flavanoids, antioxidants, and protein, with high amounts of life force from fresh ripe, organic ingredients, and without what's bad for you–white sugar, artificial stuff, preservatives, things with no life force, like frozen fruit and pie crusts off the shelf of Cost Co. Traveling in Europe one of the things you might notice is that the pastries are sweet, but not sickeningly so. In particular the fruit tarts are slightly sweet, but not so much that the flavor of the fruit comes second. Something I...Read More
Springtime Tea from Somalia with Cardamom and Mint
Food and drink like language and music spreads between cultures without rules. But within any given tradition, within any given culture, its as if there are unspoken rules that govern change; creativity is allowed, but to a point. In the world of food or music, for example, once you change a thing enough it is no longer what it started out to be. This can lead to certain kinds of conformity. For example, in my grandmother's Russian Jewish culture there were two kinds of gefilte fish–sweet without garlic, but with sugar, and spicy, without sugar, but with black pepper...Read More

The-Heat-Is-On Tropical Fruit Compote
OMG OMG OMG! I've fallen in love… with a compote!
No you are not imaging these words and I really am saying them. But I've just made the most amazing tropical fruit compote that'll having you thinking that you're sitting on a beach from the very first spoonful – and by beach I don't mean Southend (although, of course, there's nothing wrong with good old Southend!)
It was my second attempt at making this compote. The first attempt wasn't too bad but I felt it was missing something. So I added more spices, some honey, and some booze – because let's face it, everything tastes so much better with booze!
Initially I wasn't a hundred per cent sure if all the flavours would work well together, even though I knew that many of the ingredients used to give flavour worked well individually with the pineapple, mango and passion fruit used in this recipe. Thankfully they did and I was thrilled with the result.
I loved the heat you got from the spices and the rum; the fresh zingyness of the lime; the sweet aroma of the vanilla, and the somewhat simultaneous sweetness and tanginess of the fruit. Delicious!
But don't just take my word for it – have a go at making it yourself!
Another thing I've discovered about fruit compotes – whether you use fresh or dried fruit – is that they are so versatile. You can serve them hot, warm or cold and they can be used as a topping for porridge or toasted brioche as part of a yummy breakfast; they can be served as dessert with cream, mascarpone, ice-cream or custard. Compotes can also be used as a topping for cheesecake or a sponge pudding, or can be used as a filling for pancakes, crumbles, pies, cobblers or tarts.
And if you're feeding little people – and by little people I mean children not vertically challenged people like myself – you might want to leave out the rum.
1 medium pineapple
2 large mangoes
5 passion fruit
Zest of 1 lime
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 vanilla pod
1 star anise
1/4 teaspoon mixed spice
2 tablespoons runny honey
a couple of good glugs of Malibu
1 Sharp knife
1 chopping board
1 baking tray
A variety of spoons
- Turn oven on to
- Peel and core pineapple and cut into chunks.
- Peel mangoes and cut into large chunks.
- Cut each passion fruit in half and scoop out pulp.
- Place fruit in an oven proof dish.
- Cut vanilla pod in half lengthways and scrape out seeds.
- Add vanilla to the fruit.
- Add remaining ingredients.
- Combine well.
- Pop in the oven and cook for 25mins or until pineapple chunks have softened.
- Take out of oven – and enjoy any way you wish!
Things That Make Me Go Ewwww!
I never thought of myself as a fussy person when it comes to food, especially when compared to Mr.D, who has a list of food dislikes that's almost as tall as he is! I considered myself to be the kind of person who'll eat anything – or at least give it a try. But a conversation about food the other day made me realise that I had an awful lot of food hates myself. In fact after sharing them with you, I doubt I'll ever be invited to dinner again!
1. Glacé cherries
This might seem a little ironic considering I love cherries, but they have to be either fresh or dried – I can even live with the tinned variety. But glacé cherries for me are a huge non-no. Their bright, tomato-red colour just puts me off as I know that real cherries aren't supposed to be that colour. In fact for years I thought that they're weren't 'real' cherries as they didn't look or taste like the cherries that I love but they are – they're maraschino cherries that have been stoned and candied in a sugar syrup.
Even as a child I've never liked them, and my dislike for glacé cherries still continues. As much as I adore cherry bakewells, fruit cake and Christmas pudding, I always pick out the offending glacé cherries.
2. Smoked salmon
I love, love, love salmon. It's one of my fave foods. So you'd think I'd be a huge fan of smoked salmon, right? Wrong! Smoked salmon and I never really hit it off. I never liked the taste or the texture. I know it's considered a luxury delicacy, but I could never acquire a taste for it. In fact, give me a tin of salmon over the smoked stuff any day!
3. Quiche
Oh my goodness – if there's a food I really cannot stomach, it's quiche. I've never liked it and they used to serve the horrid stuff for school dinners on a regular basis. I don't think I've ever eaten a whole slice of quiche. I've given it a good go but that taste, that smell… no, just not happening!
4. Green banana
Green bananas are usually served in savoury dishes and feature in Caribbean, South American, African and South Asian cuisines – cuisines I enjoy a great deal. I don't come across green bananas very often, thankfully. But when I have, I've never really enjoyed them so tend to pick them out. I don't like the texture – and the fact that I believe bananas should be yellow and sweet probably has something to do with my dislike of them!
5. Cooked peppers
Now I can eat raw peppers without any problem at all, and I don't believe that a salad is a salad without them. But for some reason, I don't enjoy peppers when they've been cooked. Unlike many of the foods on this list, I can actually eat cooked peppers but then again I've had to – you won't believe how many dishes contain cooked peppers. It's just that I'd prefer not to! I don't really like the flavour or texture of peppers when they've been cooked.
6. Non- peeling oranges
I've always had a bit of a love-hate relationship with oranges. One of those things in life that just can't be explained. But even though I'm happy to OD on oranges when I have a really bad cold, they have to be of the peeling variety. I can't be doing with all that cutting malarkey. And since childhood, I've never been able to stand the sight of those navel oranges – definitely not for me!
7. Soft jelly sweets
Now I've always had a sweet tooth so naturally I love sweets. But I don't like those ultra soft, sugar-coated jelly sweets. I'm not totally sure why – I vaguely remember being sick after eating too many of these as a child so I'm sure that's got a lot to do with it – but they've always made me feel a bit queasy after tucking into a few, so I tend to give them a miss. I prefer the jelly sweets with a harder texture.
8. Curried/stewed fish
OK, so I love fish, I love curries, and I love stews. I even like fish stews and curries. But I'm very fussy about how the fish is cooked. It has to be in chunks rather than steaks, and there shouldn't be any huge bones and certainly no skin, as I hate the texture – all slimy and nasty. Not good!
9. Duck
Duck is very popular with many people but I personally have never understood the appeal. It has a rather strong flavour that I really don't like but if I did have to eat it, I'd prefer to have my duck cooked a bit longer than most people would prefer. I've tried to get into it but I've accepted that my tastebuds are different to everyone else's and duck just isn't for me.
10. Offal
I reckon it's a small minority of people who can stomach offal – but I'm not one of them. The smell alone is horribly off-putting, and although I've tried classics such as steak and kidney pie, and liver and onions, it's not something that I'm in a hurry to sample again.
If any of you have any 'food nasties,' I'd love to hear about them!
Triple Chocolate Banana Cake Bars
I absolutely love the combination of chocolate and banana together. I think it's a match made in dessert heaven so when I stumbled across this recipe for chocolate and banana cake bars – which contained all three types of chocolate – I knew I had to share it with you.
Guess who'll be baking away this weekend?
Makes: 16 cake bars
250g plain flour
130g butter, softened
100g soft brown sugar
3 ripe bananas
2 eggs, beaten
1tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
60g dark chocolate
30g white chocolate
30g milk chocolate
45ml milk
- Preheat oven to 160ºC.
- Butter and line 2 22cm x 24cm cake tins.
- In a large bowl cream together the butter and sugar.
- Mash bananas.
- Add to the butter mixture along with vanilla and eggs.
- Sieve flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda into the bowl.
- Combine well.
- Add all the chocolate and milk.
- Stir well.
- Spoon mixture into tins.
- Bake in the middle shelf of oven for about 20mins.
- Insert a skewer or knife into the middle of the cake. If it comes out clean it's ready.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly.
- Slice into rectangles while in the tin.
- Remove from tin and serve.
- Instead of making cake bars, this mixture can be used to make muffins. Just substitute cake tins for muffin tray lined with muffin cases.
- Chocolate can either be broken into chunks or shop bought chocolate chips can also be used.
Passion Fruit Mousse
Passion fruit mousse is supposed to be the closest thing that Brazil has to a national dessert. It's not hard to see why. Mousse? Great! Passion fruit? Amazing! I absolutely love tropical fruits, so this dessert is right up my street.
Prep: 15 minutes, plus 1 hour chilling time
Serves: 4
- 4 passion fruit, pulp and seeds scooped out
- 150g sweetened condensed milk
- 175ml fresh whipping cream
- 4 lemon shortbread thins, to serve
- Put ¾ of the passion fruit pulp and seeds (reserve the rest for decorating) in a food processor or blender and whiz to a purée.
- Push through a sieve into a bowl, to remove the seeds.
- Add the condensed milk and stir until smooth.
- Pour the cream into another bowl and use a hand-held electric whisk to whip until stiff peaks form.
- Fold through the passion fruit mixture, 1/3rd at a time, until combined.
- Spoon into small serving glasses and chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
- Spoon the reserved passion fruit over the mousses and serve with the lemon thins.
Sweet Griddled Pineapple
Pineapple is one of my favourite fruits, and it's so versatile – it can be used in sweet and savoury dishes; makes an excellent mixer in cocktails and can be eaten both raw and cooked. This is a great dessert to serve as finale to a barbeque.
Prep: 5 minutes
Cooking: 10-15 minutes
Serves: 4
- 1 pineapple, quartered lengthways, leaving the skin on
- 4 tsp Fairtrade caster sugar
- 1 tsp Fairtrade ground cinnamon
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
- Preheat a griddle pan or barbecue to medium.
- Cook the pineapple quarters for 2-3 minutes on all sides until just softened and a little charred.
- Just before removing from the heat, sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon.
- To serve, cut away the fruit from the skin and cut up into slices.
- Serve with lime wedges to squeeze over.
Pineapple Coconut Fizz
Pineapple and coconut make a great partnership, and this mocktail is perfect as a refreshing summer drink.
Prep: 5-10 minutes
Total: 5-10 minutes
Serves: 4
- ½ x medium pineapple, peeled, cored and chopped, reserving 1 skin-on slice, cut into wedges, to decorate
- 200ml pineapple and coconut juice drink
- ½ x 28g pack fresh mint, washed and chopped, reserving a few sprigs to decorate
- Crushed ice
- Soda water to top up
- Put the pineapple in a bowl and crush using the end of a rolling pin.
- Tip into a jug and add the pineapple and coconut juice and the chopped mint.
- Fill 4 glasses with crushed ice, then pour over the pineapple mixture.
- Stir with a cocktail stick, then top with soda water
- Decorate with the reserved pineapple wedges and mint to serve.
The Coolest Ice Cubes Ever!
I can't believe how hot it is. I swear I'm melting away. I know England cries out for hot weather but seriously this is just too much. I feel like I've been locked in a sauna. People may pray for the sun but in my opinion, hot weather is so overrated – and that's coming from a summer baby! Beach babes are able to look effortlessly hot as the temperature soars, and I'm no different. I'm able to look like a hot, sweaty mess with no effort at all!
So in this heat, it's no wonder my thoughts have turned to keeping super cool. For me it's cold drinks – and I'm knocking them back like there's no tomorrow. And cold drinks mean ice, which right now is a necessity. The summer season means parties, weddings, barbeques etc where ice and drinks will go hand in hand. But the problem with ice cubes is that they can be pretty boring to look out and as great as they are at keeping your drinks cool, they're also great at watering them down (which is only OK if you're drinking water!) I did a post a while back about creating an ice-bucket – made from ice. It proved to be very popular and inspired this post about livening up the humble ice-cube in terms of appearance (presentation is important, you know!) and taste!
Everyone knows that if you freeze cold water, you get cloudy ice. But freeze boiling water and you get crystal-clear ice. And that's really important if you're going to add other ingredients to your ice cubes.
Add washed sprigs or leaves to the water before freezing. Mint ice-cubes are great in iced-tea (Mr. D's fave) or fruit punch; rosemary or thyme are perfect with home-made lemonade; basil works well with gin, vodka or rum based cocktails, and lemongrass ice-cubes in pineapple or apple juice – WOW!
Citrus fruits such as lemons, limes, and oranges are a very obvious choice as slices are often served with cold beverages. But you could also try experimenting with pieces of grapefruit, pomelo, blood or ruby orange. These will work with still or sparkling water; as well as a variety of sodas, cocktails and juices.
If you want pretty as a picture ice-cubes, berries are the way to go. They give a fantastic burst of colour and a fruity flavour to drinks. Raspberries, blueberries, redcurrants, blackberries etc. could go in whole, although strawberries would probably have to be sliced. They would be perfect with iced tea, lemonade, sodas, berry, cherry, pomegranate or cranberry cocktails or juices, and raspberry would also work well with orange or peach juices.
Try pieces of pineapple, kiwi fruit, lychee or dragon fruit for a touch of the exotic. These would be a welcome addition to coconut water, a multitude of cocktails and tropical fruit juices.
Cucumber, celery, red, yellow and green peppers might be more at home in a salad bowl but these can be really refreshing served with still or sparkling water or in a Pimm's (my absolute fave – summer just isn't summer without it!)
Add some washed, fresh rose petals to water before freezing. I adore the delicate flavouring and aroma of rose as an addition to food and drinks, and it is amazing with pomegranate, raspberry and other berry based drinks.
… then try adding cut pieces of chilli to your ice cubes. This will give a light heat to drinks and complements citrus, pineapple, papaya and mango based drinks. Just remove some of the seeds in order to reduce the level of spiciness.
Add some edible glitter for sparkle or food colouring for a marbled effect. These obviously won't do anything in terms of flavour but they will make the ice-cubes in your drink look so pretty, so it might be good for those who want to keep the taste of their drinks pure.
Who says that ice-cubes can only made with water. It can be annoying when ice-cubes water down our drinks. So freeze cola for cola-flavoured ice-cubes; pineapple juice for pineapple-flavoured cubes; iced tea for iced tea cubes… you see where I'm going with this.
And of course you can combine any of the above and freeze them in water if you really want to be creative with your cubes. Try rose with raspberry; pineapple with lemongrass and ginger; cucumber with mint… the possibilities are endless!
Let's hope the only thing that melts in the heat wave is the ice in your drinks! Stay cool.
Keep Calm And Stay Hydrated
Summer has officially descended upon us and the weather is just making me want to drink… and drink… and drink! Forget food, I just want something to quench my thirst so no prizes for guessing what's going to make up most of this week's shopping list!
I came across some delicious sounding recipes for drinks which I thought I'd share with you, including one for a hot coffee drink which may not sound ideal for the warmer weather, but a girl always has to get her early morning coffee fix!
One of my fave coffee flavours – hazelnut!
Hazelnut syrup
A cup of whisked, warmed milk
1 tsp. coffee powder
A swirl of cream
- Put coffee powder into a latte cup.
- Add a tbsp. of boiling water to coffee and stir.
- Add hazelnut syrup.
- Top up with whisked, warmed milk.
- Add a swirl of cream.
(serves 6)
I love mangoes and anything made from this delicious fruit so it's no surprise that it's something I always order when I go to an Indian restaurant – although I have yet to make it myself! This version also includes mint – something I've never tried in a lassi.
A small bunch of mint leaves
100ml milk
1 ripe mango, peeled, stoned and chopped
2tbsp. low-fat yogurt
1tsp. runny honey
- Whizz all the ingredients in a blender until smooth.
- Fill a tall glass with some ice.
- Pour lassi over ice – and serve!
Pretty much Bucks Fizz – something I usually have with breakfast Christmas morning but I bet an ice-cold glass of Clementine Fizz would go down very well on a hot day.
Juice of 1 Clementine
1tsp. triple sec
Prosecco or Cava
- Put the juice in a champagne flute.
- Add the triple sec.
- Top with Prosecco or cava.
Who wouldn't like a glass of champers?
1 sugar cube
A dash of Angostura bitters
10ml brandy or cognac
Champagne or your favourite sparkling wine
- Place sugar cube in a fluted glass.
- Add Angostura bitters and brandy or cognac.
- Top with Champagne or sparkling wine.
(makes 6)
usually made with tobacco sauce, this version uses wasabi for an even more powerful kick!
1ltr tomato juice
3tbsp. wasabi powder
6 shots vodka
1tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
3 lemons, halved
6 celery sticks
Handful of ice
- Place ice in glasses.
- Put all other ingredients – except celery – into a large jug.
- Stir well.
- Pour into glasses over the ice.
- Serve with celery sticks.
Enjoy these gorgeous drinks. Enjoy the Summer!

Spicy Salsa With Everything!
One special memory about my very first time in the States many years ago was that I learned how to make salsa. My Aunt P. who's Mexican taught me how to make an authentic Mexican salsa and for a long time afterwards I was making it all the time and serving it up with everything: crisps, tortilla chips, wraps, sandwiches, rice, chips, salads… you name it, salsa was served with it. If ever there was an event or get together I'd whip up a tub of Aunt P.'s special salsa.
For reasons I'm not totally sure of, I gradually stopped making it over the years which I regret as I eventually forgot the recipe. Until, I came across a recipe in a magazine for salsa and realized it was almost identical to the one Aunt P. taught me to make – except this one contained garlic. I'm so thrilled that salsa making days are back. Perhaps you'd like to try this recipe too.
4 tomatoes
1 green chilli
1/2 red onion
1 garlic clove
2 tbsp. coriander
Juice of 1 lime
salt and pepper to taste
- Roughly chop the tomatoes into small chunks.
- Crush the garlic.
- Finely chop all the other ingredients.
- Combine all chopped ingredients in a bowl.
- Add lime juice, salt and pepper.
- Enjoy!
The Perfect Easter Lunch: Jerk Lamb With Guava Sauce
Easter's here! Amid all the chocolate we'll be scoffing, we'll most definitely be sitting down to a special Easter meal of roast lamb like millions of other families up and down the country.
But this year I fancied an Easter lunch with a bit a twist. Rather than the usual minted roast lamb, I thought about serving a roast lamb with a jerk seasoning and served with roasted sweet potatoes. I remember watching Jamaican chef Virginia Burke on a food programme where she cooked a delicious looking jerk lamb; a contemporary take on the classic jerk chicken. I remember Burke saying at the time: "We have the best food in the Caribbean but nobody knows about it."
And she's absolutely right! I have been a big fan of Jamaican food – in fact all Caribbean – for years and I'm really surprised that it's not more well known because I'm sure it would really take off in a big way – in quite the same way that Indian or Thai food has.
If you've never tried Caribbean food, you really don't know what you're missing. Try Virginia Burke's recipe for jerk lamb with a yummy guava sauce. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!
For the jerk seasoning
•6 spring onions
•2 scotch bonnet peppers
•1 tsp ground allspice
•1 tbsp thyme, chopped
•2 tsp ground cinnamon
•1 tsp nutmeg, grated
•1 tsp brown sugar
•1.5 tsp salt
•1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
•75 ml white malt vinegar, distilled
•1 tbsp oil
For the guava dipping sauce
•1 heads garlic
•1 tsp olive oil
•175 g guava jelly, or redcurrant jelly
•2 tbsp white wine vinegar
•1 tsp hot pepper sauce, (optional, for added heat)
For the lamb
•3 tbsp jerk seasoning
•2.5 kg leg of lamb, boned
•2 cloves garlic, crushed
To serve
•1 tsp parsley, fresh, chopped
•1 tsp coriander, fresh, chopped
1. Place the ingredients for the jerk seasoning into a blender and whiz to a thick paste.
2. Rub the jerk seasoning and salt thoroughly into the lamb. Cover and marinate in the fridge overnight.
3. Set the oven to 180C/gas 4.
4. Rub the crushed garlic on the inside of the lamb leg. Roll up the leg and tie in three places to secure. Roast for 45 minutes for medium rare – add about 15 minutes cooking time for well-done lamb.
5. To make the dipping sauce, cut off the top of a whole head of garlic. Pour over the olive oil, wrap it in foil and roast for about 15-20 minutes, until soft.
6. Squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins and crush them in a saucepan. Add the guava jelly and white wine vinegar. Stir until the guava jelly has dissolved, add the hot pepper sauce (if using) and bring to a simmer. Cook for five minutes.
7. Allow the lamb to rest for 10 minutes before carving. Just before serving, stir the parsley and coriander into the sauce. Slice the lamb and serve immediately with the warm sauce.

Sumo, babies, and Naxalites
- The Christian Science Monitor has an interesting piece on the Naxalite (Maoist) uprising in Chhattisgarh State, India.
The threat posed by the Maoists is widely contested. Like many others, the leader of Salwa Judum, Mahendra Karma, calls them the greatest threat to Indian democracy. But the Naxalites' capabilities are limited. They can carry out quick strikes from their jungle redoubts, experts say, but they cannot take a small district seat like Dantewada, much less Delhi.
- Those crazy sumo.

Wintry blast on the way
An icy chill is expected to descend on Waikato today but it comes lined with "white gold".
The ski slopes of Mt Ruapehu were covered with snow yesterday after the first fall of the year – and it's expected to keep coming until Saturday as overnight temperatures plummet.
Gale-force winds from the Southern Ocean near Antarctica are being pushed north by a large low-pressure system that has been clogging skies and soaking roads over the last few days.
Snow was falling on the mountain yesterday down to 1200 metres, and is expected to come down as low as 800m today.
Mt Ruapehu ski area manager Steve McGill says preparations are underway for the ski season, which is due to open on June 16 at Turoa, and June 23 at Whakapapa. The dump was a "glorious sight", he said.
"Winter is certainly upon us. At Turoa it is snowing to the 13-kilometre barrier and the road is now closed, and at Whakapapa it is snowing to Scoria Flat and the road is restricted."
He said staff were "amped" for winter and the snow was a "glorious sight for skiers and boarders".
MetService is forecasting the winds of up to 40kmh to switch from a westerly to a frigid southwesterly, which will be laced with heavy showers and possible thunder.
Temperatures in Hamilton, Te Kuiti and Taumaranui got up to around 15 degrees Celsius yesterday with overnight lows near 8C. Today, however, the high could reach 14C, but the overnight lows are tipped to plummet to zero in some areas.
Snow is expected to fall to 300m in the lower South Island.
MetService meteorologist Stephen Glassey said wind chill would be a factor and it would bite pedestrians and others venturing outdoors.
On Monday night a small tornado tore through the Bay of Plenty town of Papamoa damaging several homes.
The tornado twisted through Longview Dr on the outskirts of Tauranga at 8.30pm, destroying the roofs of six homes, a Fire Service spokesman said.
Tiles were ripped off roofs but that was the extent of the damage, the spokesman said. Three fire trucks attended, and staff spent an hour helping home owners secure their roofs.
The tornado was probably a result of the thunderstorms which lashed the upper North Island yesterday evening, MetService forecaster Andy Downs said.
"We're not surprised. They tend to be very localised and short lived.
"We put out a watch warning about the possibility of severe thunderstorms producing small tornadoes and strong wind gusts."
A waterspout was also seen earlier in the day off the Taranaki coast.

We put this up outside as a surprise when the Guest of Honor came home, she saw it. Put up some stakes around the bottom of the sign since it was a little windy, but the sign held up great. Everyone that came to the party was impressed. Great Product!!!

text: Guys, On "Call Me Irresponsible" you know the part where Randy Peterson is doing the scene with the drama teacher and Greg gets hit with the flowers when the teacher opens the door? For some strange reason, I remember watching this scene and having them do the scene at least two times: Teacher (acting): "Where did you get those flowers?" Randy: "From a boy named Jeff, aren't they super? Teacher: You are much too young to be receiving flowers from a stanger. MUCH too young." The first time through I remember (or think I do) the teacher asks Randy to do the scene over again. Than, on the second try, the teacher opens the door and Greg gets hit in the chest with the flowers. I am about 55% sure that this was included and 45% sure that this was my imagination. However, as the timing of this episode comes in at over 25 minutes on the DVD, and there does not seem to be a flip in dialogue on the DVD, maybe it was my imagination. (Of course, if you had NEVER seen "Pass The Tabu" on syndicated prints or TV Land, you would never know that about 15-20 seconds of dialogue is missing on the DVD of that episode.) Can anyone help me out with "Call Me Irresponsible?" Jack
