I just started watching Golden Girls from season one, episode one. It still makes me laugh but oh dear those shoulder pads belong in the Superbowl.

They don't belong anywhere! LOL. I haven't seen the show in a really long time. I only remember little bits of their personalities and that they all loved cheesecake. Betty white could totally play the superbowl though. She'd take a whole team down.

I love apples with peanut butter

. Everyone goes for the caramel but I only will do that if it's caramel apples for a seasonal snack.

Nutella is pretty nice too!

Sashimi (raw) with ginger and wasabi

dumplings

frog legs

Never been able to bring myself to eat a froggy leg. Gribbit!

Have ya ever had suet dumplings atop stewed steak (or steak and kidney) in velvety meaty gravy? They have a brown crispy top with an unctuous, deceptively pillowy, gravy laden underbelly. Fabulous with either crispy roast potatoes or soft, buttery mash.

Nostalgia night for it seems

Normally I eat quite healthy also. Even when I make desserts that aren't "healthy" I always try to cut the fat content down and the sugars. I use low fat cream cheese for example and replace butter with olive oil sometimes etc.

Hello everyone!

I just stumbled across the description for this herb, and I'd love to get hold of some seeds, as a couple of things caught my eye: "Cilantro on steroids" and "Does not bolt in Summer like Cilantro" - this sounds absolutely awesome to me

Papalo / Quilquiña / Papaloquelite

A quick Google didn't bring up anything available in Australia - has anyone heard of this wonderful sounding herb? It's Mexican.

Yes. I am very close to Mexico and can likely get you some seeds. Shall I? Will we be breaking some international agri code when I mail these to you? Will my package get confiscated in customs?

All the more reason to try

Let me look into this I will check with Chef Silvana and see what she suggests.

Recon seed mission.

Ah luvz it.

Happy Monday Delicioustarians,

Today is Martin Luther King Jr Day here in the states.

I am very aware today of how many in our nation are living within the poverty lines and how Rev King was very concerned about poverty and worked hard to raise awareness of such.

It troubles me on a deep level that so many are having difficulty putting food on the table in a nation that is so rich in so many ways. We have more than enough food here to make sure that all have enough to eat.

It troubles me also, that more than 50% of all homeless people in this nation are children.

So while we talk about food and all of the privilege of simply being able to eat a diversity of foods, I am always mindful of those who may go hungry today. I do my part in my community and volunteer at the local food bank, I have always donated food and solicited my vendors for food donations especially at holiday time, but the work is never done.

What I would love to see would be more people sharing a meal with a friend, neighbor, or dropping off a meal, even a cup of soup, to someone who may be hungry. Those little steps in kindness mean so much.

Have a beautiful day everyone.

~ Sun

Aww, that's so sweet of you, but I looked it up after making that post, it's classified as a weed (probably because of the flighty seeds) so it will most likely get confiscated.

Cath once sent me an autumn leaf and even that got confiscated!

Have you tried it Sun? It sounds amazing.

Hiya KC and welcome to the delicious thread!

I am also a fan of a good crisp apple. For many years I would have outings up to Apple Hill (El Dorado County Foothills) and it was so much fun. There are something like 20 apple farms and several have huge kitchens and bakeries churning out pies, fritters, apple butter, apple sauce, more pies..it was insane. And really fun.

Speaking of natural peanut butter, I need to find a new source because I was using Whole Foods for natural nut butters but those days are over. I cant support the corporate greed from another company that refuses health care to employee's especially when they are dealing with food.
