Breaking Through, Travelling On

Hummous recipe not actually tried this one yet but it looks straight forward enough

Karmacat

Oh, that looks good, knitwitch! Basically just mash everything together thats my kind of recipe Lets see if RT can compete with that :j

Weather here is *amazingly* beautiful! I'm sorry to keep giving a weather report, but although this winter wasn't a bad one, its felt like it would never end! I sat out while my (electric) kettle was boiling, thats enough for me, that gets my vit d stores on the way up again

So, some cleaning, check my trading website (should've done that this morning, but I woke really, really slowly). I *might* do some of that financial admin, but finishing off packing for tomorrow is more important.


ETA: sorry Ed, yes, exactly what you think - cardboard coated with tinfoil and propped (with a coat hanger, the pdf says!) at the correct angle to reflect down onto the food.

I used to love building blocks when I was a kid - this stuff is sort of like having building blocks, but whatever you build can then be used :j I like that.

The hummus recipe sounds like it has an awful lot of tahini in it, or is that just me?

You could argue that any tahini is overkill, it certainly makes the cost rocket up!

Karmacat

No clue what the usual proportion is I wonder what could be used instead

ETA - I do now, sort of: http://www.mygreekdish.com/recipe/3-easy-delicious-homemade-hummus-recipes/
this one has a normal recipe, a make your own tahini recipe, and a no tahini at all recipe :j replaced with olive oil and garlic.

Fascinating! Thanks knitwitch! It'll be interesting to see what RT comes up with :beer:

I woke up with the speed of a snail this morning. Is there any evolutionary advantage to insomnia? Not being eaten by a sabre tooth tiger, I suppose. Shame they've gone the way of the dinosaur. I made a to-do list on my phone, and its ridiculously long, given that I've been in such a la-la-la mode today, and I need to leave the house at 5pm ....

I'd like to move to Spain RIGHT NOW please

I too have given up on sleeping, something like 3-4 weeks of broken sleep :eek:

Keeping my head down with spreadsheets and XIRR calculations

Karmacat

Brilliant convo on your thread about XIRR ... something else I've never heard of ... **what** have I been doing all my life? Well, I know, but still ...

Anyway ... which one of you borrowed the neoprene case for my kindle?

edinburgher

Not me, although we did just receive a neoprene baby 'wetsuit' from someone so that I can do the whole 'dad swimming lessons' thing :T

Ps. XIRR calcs are fun, I had 8.43% for last year, more than happy with that.
