Lovely Cookie. So much better than that bought rubbish.
On Friday I had my annual meal of KFC. I swear it gets worse each year.
Bought some fresh chestnuts as we came through Daylesford yesterday.

Don’t know what is going on. Many of our Probus group are ill or have had accidents. The very bright spot was yesterday when DD and GC and partners, and me , went to a small Australian creatures zoo. There were lots of young kids, probably preppies, there. They were so excited and got to handle small native creatures. DD is raising money for research and a breeding programme for the Pigmy Possums. We then went for lunch at nice Cafe at Macedon.
I’ve planted lots of veggie seedlings.

Well done Mab and Katie.
Tomorrow DD is taking me to a private Zoo to see some Pigmy Possums. Belated Mothers Day event. She is raising money for them.
Lots of people coming and going with Quinces and Figs. Many friends either ill or have had nasty accidents.
I’m finding AI is intruding into surprising places.
Cookie, thanks for all your effort with a difficult forum situation .
Mab, I’ve tried to send you a PM but it won’t send. Just a thank you for the lovely gift.

My neighbor has been giving me buckets of organic carrots. She works at a farm where they develop new varieties of veggies. They are not allowed to sell or donate the excess, but staff can take home. I distribute them and make lots of carrot based dishes. I made a cake to send back to the farm and carrot and lentil soup. Also healthy balls of carrot, nuts, dates and dried fruit. She also gave me some red and green chillies and capsicums. I’ve added roasted red capsicum to hummus and roasted 1/2 capsicum filled with cheese mushrooms and egg.

I think the problem is that most Thermomix recipe sites charge members to use them. ( Cookidoo) There is Facebook, but it doesn't function in the same way and doesn’t have the pool of saved information that the Forum has. The only way ahead may be to pay a subscription or recruit more members. More members would register more clicks on the adds and return more income. Of course, we could just let it die. I find the adds a nuisance.

Going to try Helen Goh’s recipe for Anzacs. Also making another lot of Portuguese Custard Tarts. These are for a local Anzac get together.

Judy, restaurant quality meals. Spoilt guest.
I had 2 large chicken breasts to cook. I cooked one in the Varoma with veggies and pineapple successful, the other, I bought a bottle of pre-made Indian mixture. Awful stuff. Much better to make own mix in TMX.

Dr said RSV essential . Available 17 th May. Have it late May. Also has ordered a blood test prior to Polia injection. Didn’t know about that. My new Dr is a Geriatrician. Young enough to see me through.
I’ve been invited to a fashion show today. Not sure I’ll go, too much on.

Cookie, Probus are organising a trip to Mildura and Swan Hill. Our club has been invited. Somehow I’ve ended up with the job of doing the administration . Yesterday I finally contacted the last person.
Afternoon tea with Probus today.
