Almost completely vegetarian now apart from Wild Salmon.
A 4 ounce portion drizzled with Lemon and black pepper takes 1 and a half
minutes in the microblaster. Still slightly undercooked and so juicy!
I don't fry anything in any oil any more - except for a little Olive oil to
release spice flavours in a curry, then mop it up with a kitchen paper.
"QUORN" features a lot. I wrote to them asking for a complete nutritional
breakdown to include levels and comparisons between Omega-3's & Omega-6's,
but so far they have not responded, which makes me a little bit suspicious.
Fats and oils are scary now - never thought that I'd admit to that!
My bread has no shortening agent at all, makes it chewier and it doesn't
keep as long. But it seems tastier.
Dontcha just wish you didn't have to read drivel like this? Some Club to be
in.
Away for a walk with my cat.
Maybe I should get drunk.
Rollicking gloriously pie-eyed falling down rat-arsed singing at the moon
kinda drunk.
Maybe not.
Finally mastered the art of coffee with Soya Milk so it doesn't curdle!

Hello Hugh,
The others might not be able to see your post, because your computer clock is
set wrong (see below)

Anyway, I was wondering what the solution is to not curdling Soya milk (in
coffee)?

Hugh Kearnley - 30 Apr 2007 23:41 GMT
My fault about the computer clock - I was checking to see when my Onco visit
was in May, and forgot to reset it.
Coffee + Soya milk = put an ice cube into the made mug of coffee. After it
disappears - add the milk - SLOWLY.

That's okay, Hugh. It happens to the best of us, sometimes.
Just pointing it out because some people cannot see posts until the date and the
date was a month ahead.  Actually it would be a kewl way to keep track of
appointments, via newsgroup. Post the appointments on the wrong date (ahead but
short a few days to remind you), as long as you change the date back, for the
posts you want people to see "now".  I use a wall calendar for important dates,
near the kitchen prep area and table, so after a meal, I usually glance at it to
see what's coming up.

I see. So it has to be cooled down first.
Our mother always told us "put a spoon in it" to cool coffee or tea.
Does that work as well before adding soya milk?
J
Hugh Kearnley - 01 May 2007 12:43 GMT
The spoon didn't work - just tried that - it curdled, but gonna drink it
anyway.
I use "Alpro Light" Soya milk for beverages and "So Good" for just gulping.
It has something to do with the combo of heat and acidity of the coffee.

Had the latest monthly triptorelin jab this morning. First painful one. Felt
like a 6 inch nail whacked into my a.s.
Woulda hooked the doc, but it was a woman, so I just said a cuss word and
smiled.

Well, that's not fun. You would have been better whacking her a.s. :)

I have had a couple of painful Lupron shots.  They tend to stay sore for a
day or two.  Never thought about punching the nurse though.  Maybe I'll try
that next time it happens.

   Have a big juicy steak now and again.... I guarantee that you'll live
just as long... or within a week or so. My 93 year old dad eats bacon & eggs
on a buttered roll everyday, and never took a vitamin or exercised in his
life. He dates women my age! Gotta be his diet....

The best steak I have ever had was at Jeff Ruby's (restaurants in Cincinnati
and Louisville), but it is too expensive for more than one on my budget.

A couple of days ago, O.J. stopped in for dinner at his Louisville
restaurant.  Ruby kicked him out.

Looks like I'll be going back afterall.

Unless, of course, it kills him dead on the spot as it sometimes does
heart patients. I've forgotten Hughs's cardiovascular status; if it's
adequate, I fully support the steak -- and Haagen Dasz, pizza, and
cheesecake -- hell, daily in Hugh's case. OTOH, I shed a dozen pounds
while building muscle and dramatically improved my lipids profile in the
past six weeks with very minimal changes (added fish oil and reduced
carbs slightly to cut my triglycerides by 65%, modified my metabolism
via tailored exercise to run on fat rather than sugar).

Or, of course, genes. With any luck, you've inherited all but "one" of
them, the exception being obvious in our case.

   IP have you finally come over to my side a bit? I've been running on fat
instead of sugar for 8 years now.

  Sadly my mom died too young at 65, over 20 years ago with terrible health
problems, and I'm sure I probably got more of her genes as well? If it evens
out, I'll be dead any minute now, but 8 years of steak, butter, cheesecake,
and ribs, have made it very worthwhile.

But you're doing it by starving your body of carbs, giving it no choice
but to run on something besides sugar. You could also do that by living
-- for a while -- on shoe leather and toothpaste. Taken to the extreme,
the ultimate result of that form of cell chemistry alteration is best
shown in photos of 1945 Auschwitz. I did it the old fashioned way, by
altering my cell chemistry through aerobic exercise, which is a
healthier pathway, especially for active people.

OTOH, even though all evidence still points to carbs as our best energy
source, it doesn't take much unburned carbs to raise our triglycerides,
which paired with low HDL (which mine is) is a significant heart threat.
  Thus aside from the Atkins-Mediterranean debate, even slim people can
still eat too much carbs, even if they're all whole grains. So while I
used to eat close to a loaf of whole grains bread most days, I have cut
back to "only" a few slices of bread plus "only" a third of a box (it
used to be half a box, and still is during my peak sports season) of
whole grain cereal most days.

I guess you could call that "coming around", even though it would have
Atkins rolling over in his grave.

I tried eating an actual piece of bacon (it was wrapped around a giant
prawn) last week. It tasted as though I was performing an oral
liposuction on Rosie O'Donnel. ;-)

I guess I ain't converted yet.

 Fat is a perfectly good source of energy.... afterall, isn't that how the
body stores it's excess carbs? Folks like you are able to burn off what they
eat.  Folks like me are carb intolerant, and the more I eat the more I want,
and the more that goes to fat storage.  I just cut out most of the dietary
carbs, and let my body decide  where and when to get them from my dietary
reserve. And I do eat carbs, but not empty or sugary ones.  I only eat carbs
when I'm getting something back good in return, like veggies & nuts &
berries. I also can't stand bacon..... never could.
